Sound Legal Counsel After Refusing a Breath Test
The implied consent law in Michigan states that if an individual is arrested for probable cause of driving under the influence, they give full consent to take a breath test. If you have recently been pulled over and refused to take the test, it is important to understand your options and rights in the matter.
An attorney well-versed in DUI law can provide you with the intimate knowledge and resources needed to do so. At Boulahanis & Associates, we are not only dedicated to initially getting you started with your breath test refusal case, but we can help you fight for an end result that is in your best interests.
What to Expect After Refusing a Breath Test
If you refuse to take a breath test, the arresting officer has reason to suspend your driver's license. You will then have 14 days to challenge your license suspension and request a court hearing in order to appeal it. If the suspension is accepted by the court, it means that your license will be taken away for one year, or two years if this is your second refusal within a span of seven years
By refusing to take the breath test, you may also be responsible for paying a fine to the state of Michigan. If you are currently facing this legal process, our attorneys can help.
