By Atlanta Traffic Ticket Lawyer Larry Kohn With Over 28 Years of Criminal Law Experience

Other conviction penalties include fines and increased car insurance rates.

Georgia law uses the term “family violence” to describe certain crimes that occur between people with specific relationships, not just married couples. It can apply to spouses, former spouses, parents and children, stepparents and stepchildren, people who share a child, and people who live or formerly lived in the same household.

It does not usually apply to casual roommates or distant relatives with no household connection. The same basic criminal statutes (like battery or assault) apply, but “family violence” is a label that triggers additional consequences and court procedures.

What Is Georgia’s Implied Consent Law?

Implied consent means that by driving on Georgia’s roads, you are giving advance permission for law enforcement to test your blood, breath, or urine if you are lawfully arrested for DUI. This isn’t a “gotcha” tactic: it’s written into the law, and officers are required to notify you of these rights and consequences at the time of your arrest. When police have probable cause to arrest you for DUI of alcohol or drugs, they must read you the Georgia implied consent notice—a standard warning, often read on body cam video. At this moment, you must choose to either submit to, or refuse, chemical testing.
