Chester County Juvenile DUI Lawyer
Philadelphia Underage DUI Defense Attorney
In the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania the legal age to consume alcohol is 21 just like the rest of the country. The legal limit for Blood Alcohol Content is .08%, again just like the rest of the United States. However, if you are under the age of 21 and are caught drinking and driving you should know that Pennsylvania has a zero tolerance law for those under 21. If you are under the legal drinking age and are caught driving drunk or driving buzzed there are very severe legal and administrative penalties you will face.
If you have been caught drinking and driving in the Philadelphia area you should consult with an experienced Philadelphia Underage DUI Defense Attorney as soon as possible.

Legal Consequences For Underage DUI Conviction
In the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania anyone under the age of 21 who is caught driving with a BAC at or above .02% will be charged with a DUI automatically. There is no more evidence needed to charge an underage driver with a DUI in Pennsylvania if their BAC registers at or exceeds .02%.
Underage drivers who are first time offenders and are convicted will face a jail sentence ranging from 2 days up to 6 months. They will also have their drivers license suspended for 12 months. There are also fines, court costs and DMV administrative fees that may cost up to $5,000.00. If no one was injured and it was a first time offense an underage driver may be eligible for the Pennsylvania ARD program. A skilled and qualified Media PA Underage DUI Lawyer can help you through this very trying time.
