We understand the stress those accused of DUI, drug offenses, and other crimes endure. We also understand that, while some short-term relief to those accused may be gained through quickly "entering a plea" to the charge(s), it is, at the very least, advisable to have a full understanding of possible defenses to your charges and the potential penalties that may be incurred as a result of a plea. Our firm is dedicated to contesting these cases in which your freedom and livelihood are frequently at-risk.

The fact that you have received a charge (whether it is a DUI charge, drug charge, or other traffic charge) is not a sufficient basis for you to plead guilty to the charge. Allow our experienced and skillful attorneys to provide you with a free consultation to determine what possible defenses exist in your case.

Golden Rule #1: A DUI charge can be "beat" despite the fact that the state has a test result that allegedly shows that the alcohol content in your blood was greater than .08.

In many cases, the state cannot show that the blood or breath test was obtained legally. Even if all of the state properly crosses each of these hurdles, a DUI charge can STILL BE BEATEN. The state-administered test, like any other test, contains errors. At McIlhinney & Sessions, we are prepared to challenge these test results at every stage of your case.

As a result of their extensive representation of clients facing DUI charges, attorneys Sean McIlhinney and Ben Sessions have developed an extensive understanding of the affects that other traffic violations may have upon a person’s driver’s license. As is frequently the case with DUI charges, people charged with a “simple” traffic offense will often pay the fine without recognizing the possible penalties. Particularly, drivers who are under the age of 21, drivers who possess a commercial driver’s license (CDL), and drivers who possess a North Carolina license and receive a ticket in Georgia must be cautious in the handling of traffic citations.

Our office has an extremely high success rate in resolving traffic citations so that your insurance premiums are not affected, and we are generally able to conclude the case WITHOUT YOU BEING FORCED TO APPEAR IN COURT.

North Carolina has the toughest laws in the United States regarding suspension of a driver’s license for various traffic convictions (especially speeding), and the North Carolina DMV applies these suspension laws to out of state tickets. We are generally able to secure a reduction such that the ticket does NOT cause license suspension and is NOT reported to the North Carolina DMV without the client ever having to appear in court!

Our firm understands the importance of your driver’s license and we understand how to assist you in resolving your traffic citation so that your driver’s license will not be compromised.
