DUI Defense Backed by Knowledge, Strategy, and Results
Getting charged with a DUI in Virginia is a big deal. Whether this is your first offense or not, you now face criminal charges, mandatory license suspension, potential jail time, and a record that can follow you for life. At Battlefield Law Group, DUI/DWI defense is one of our primary practice areas, and we handle cases across all Northern Virginia courthouse counties, including Manassas, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Culpeper, Alexandria, Stafford, and Loudoun.
But here’s what most people don’t realize: Police often use traffic stops as a gateway to find more drugs, weapons, or anything they can stack on. What began as a simple lane violation may have turned into accusations of serious crimes. That’s where we come in. Our team is experienced in defending clients against all DUI-related charges and works tirelessly to protect your rights, no matter where you are in Northern Virginia.
Caught in a Fishing Expedition?
We see it all the time:
You’re pulled over for a “wide turn,” a missing headlight, or a so-called "weaving" violation. What police really want is a pretext, a legal reason to stop and search for evidence of drunk driving, narcotics, or intent to distribute.
Our job is to question everything:
• Was the stop even legal?
• Were field sobriety tests administered correctly?
• Was the breathalyzer machine calibrated under § 18.2-268.9?
• Were you coerced or improperly searched?
You Only Have 7 Days to Act on License Suspension
If you were charged with DUI, your license may be automatically suspended under § 46.2-391.2, even before your first court date.
You have just 7 days to contest this administrative suspension and fight to keep your driving privileges. Miss that window, and the Commonwealth takes your license without even proving guilt in court.
Penalties for DUI in Virginia
• 1st Offense - Up to 12 months - Up to $2,500 - 1 year Mandatory ASAP Program
• 2nd Offense (within 5 years) - Min. 20 days to 1 year - Up to $2,500 - 3 years Ignition Interlock

What the Law Actually Says:
Under Virginia Code § 18.2-266, it is illegal to operate a motor vehicle:
With a BAC of 0.08% or higher
While under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both
Even below 0.08%, if you're deemed impaired by an officer’s observations
And if you're under 21, even a 0.02% BAC is enough to trigger DUI charges under
§ 18.2-266.1.

당신의 침묵은 강력합니다. 사용하세요.
Whether you're stopped for a traffic violation, suspected of DUI, or questioned in connection with a criminal investigation, knowing your rights can be the difference between a dismissal and a conviction. Police are trained to gather evidence from the moment they make contact, and anything you say can and will be used against you. You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Use them! According to the Innocence Project, false confessions or admissions play a role in nearly 30% of wrongful convictions, many of them happening during police questioning. Don’t guess your way through the process. Call Battlefield Law Group, PLLC we’ll make sure your rights are protected from the very start.
