Alcohol-Related Crimes

For Legal Counsel Regarding Alcohol-Related Crimes

Contact a Myrtle Beach Area Defense Attorney at the McGougan Law Firm

Myrtle Beach is a tourist destination attracting many young people as well as local high school and college-aged youth, and McGougan Law Firm is often called upon to defend teenagers and young adults in and around the Myrtle Beach area. We often defend clients accused of alcohol related offenses, including:

  • Minor in possession of alcohol
  • Underage drinking
  • Public intoxication
  • Disorderly conduct related to consumption of alcohol
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol (DWI/DUI)

A day of festive partying can soon become a serious day of reckoning and challenge after an arrest. Our lawyers are adept at helping people through the difficult process of criminal defense — always with the aim of keeping the negative impact of a criminal arrest to a minimum. A client's willingness to participate in a substance abuse treatment program is often very helpful in negating the impact of the charge.

We have a strong reputation as an aggressive, experienced and successful criminal defense law firm in North Carolina and South Carolina. Among our defense lawyers is a former prosecutor whose insights into the tactics and expectations of the prosecution are used to help us build strong defense cases.

We are under the impression that many criminal defense attorneys pursue the easiest solution with the least amount of risk. Our law firm, on the other hand, tries cases. We will not stand for our clients to be convicted on the basis of evidence that was gathered illegally or that is inconclusive.

Protect your future, your clean record, your professional license or your ability to qualify for student loans. (A drug crime conviction may make you ineligible for federal student aid). If you need experienced legal counsel and representation, contact our law offices to schedule a consultation.
