Every state has nuances surrounding its laws concerning driving under the influence, but in South Carolina, you can be accused of DUI if you are found operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or a combination of the two. Law enforcement will do a field sobriety test if they suspect that the alcohol or drugs in your system are limiting your ability to function normally and operate your vehicle safely.
A law enforcement officer can administer a breathalyzer test on the scene, and if your Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) is 0.08% or higher, you can face DUI charges. These charges can result in significant fines, jail time, and a suspended driver’s license.
If you are pulled over for a suspected DUI and blow a 0.08% or higher, law enforcement has the right to arrest you. At this point, you will be officially arrested on suspicion of DUI. If you are later charged with a DUI, you can face the following penalties:
These penalties are possible after your first DUI offense. However, if you are charged with driving under the influence again, you can face much more severe penalties, including longer jail sentences, higher fines, longer license suspensions, and mandatory installation of an ignition interlock device. These penalties will continue to escalate if your DUI results in another individual’s serious injury or death.

I am an attorney in Charleston, SC and my law firm has had the chance to work with Lumpkin & Postal on multiple complex cases where we have been able to obtain successful results for our clients. If you are involved in a business dispute and need a top notch litigator or if you or a loved one has been hurt or killed due to someone else's negligence then you should look no further then Lumpkin & Postal.
Mr Andrew Postal came highly recommended from one of his associates and now I see why. I have never needed to use an attorney and didn't know meetingwhat to expect-so I entered the office a little on the edge. However, after our first meeting, Mr. Postal did a great job putting my mind at ease. His level of professionalism goes beyond the four walls of his office. He always showed to be genuinely concerned about me and not just my case. He kept me well informed of every detail of my case. He never made decisions for me, but allowed me to have a voice. That was truly appreciated. The services of this firm are remarkable!!!!
What a great law firm. I had a very complex case and Drew never broke stride. You would have thought I had a high rise firm handling my case. Calls always returned, and I am a demanding persona they met every demand. No TV lawyer has a thing on Bob and Drew. What a great team. They have put Georgetown on the legal map. No matter what your case call them.
