A DUI can affect more than your driver’s license.

In Maryland, a DUI charge doesn’t necessarily mean your auto insurance will be canceled. Insurers generally can’t cancel your policy mid-term simply because you were charged with a DUI. However, a conviction can affect your coverage when it’s time to renew.

A DUI conviction can lead to higher premiums, and insurers may choose not to renew a policy based on certain DUI convictions within the previous three years. If an insurer plans to cancel or non-renew your policy for reasons other than nonpayment, they generally must provide at least 45 days’ advance notice.

The consequences can also include fines, license suspension or revocation, ignition interlock requirements, and a criminal record if convicted.

If you’ve been charged with a DUI or DWI, the attorneys at Alpert Schreyer Criminal Defense Attorneys can review the traffic stop, field sobriety tests, chemical testing, and other evidence to identify potential issues in your case.

Labor Day weekend means one last big summer weekend—but for Maryland drivers, it can also mean an increased risk of DUI arrests.

A DUI can have consequences that go far beyond the initial traffic stop. A conviction can affect your driver’s license, finances, employment, insurance, and even your future. And depending on the circumstances, you could be facing serious criminal penalties.

The safest choice is simple: if you’ve been drinking, don’t drive. Designate a sober driver, use a rideshare, call a taxi, or make arrangements to stay where you are. Never get behind the wheel if you’re not sure you’re safe to drive.

If you are pulled over or arrested for suspected DUI, remember that you have rights. What happens during the traffic stop and how your case is handled afterward can make a significant difference.

If you or someone you know is facing a DUI charge in Maryland, contact Alpert Schreyer for experienced legal representation.

Facing a serious DUI charge can be overwhelming, especially when the outcome could have life-changing consequences.

In a recent case, Attorney Andrew Alpert helped a client navigate that uncertainty with a straightforward, strategic approach. From the beginning, he made sure the client understood the seriousness of the situation, what to expect, and what needed to be done to build the strongest defense possible.

That preparation and attention to detail carried through to trial, where all charges were dismissed.

Every case is different, and no attorney can promise a particular outcome. But when the stakes are high, having an experienced attorney who will take your case seriously, prepare thoroughly, and advocate for you can make all the difference.

At Alpert Schreyer, we’re proud to stand beside our clients when they need it most.

A DUI case is about more than a number on a Breathalyzer or a blood test. The science behind that evidence matters, too.

A forensic lawyer-scientist can examine the testing methods, equipment, procedures, and handling of evidence to identify potential errors or weaknesses that could affect the reliability of the results.

Attorney Andrew Alpert brings that specialized knowledge to DUI defense as the holder of the Forensic Lawyer-Scientist Designation, recognized by the Chemistry and the Law Division of the American Chemical Society. He is also Maryland’s first and only attorney to become board-certified in DUI Defense Law by the National College for DUI Defense.

When your driving privileges, finances, career, and future are at stake, every piece of evidence deserves a careful examination.

Recent reports indicate that the U.S. State Department has revoked thousands of visas under its continuous vetting program, with DUI-related offenses among the reasons cited for visa revocations.

For foreign nationals, a DUI charge can carry consequences beyond the criminal case itself. Depending on the circumstances, it may affect your visa status, future visa renewals, international travel, or other immigration matters. Every case is different, but the potential immigration implications make it especially important to take DUI charges seriously.

If you are in the U.S. on a visa and have been arrested for DUI in Maryland, don't assume the consequences end in criminal court. Seeking experienced legal representation as early as possible can help you better understand your rights, legal options, and the potential impact on your future.

Think you know your rights during a DUI stop? There are many misconceptions about breathalyzer tests in Maryland.

One common question is whether you can refuse a breathalyzer test. In Maryland, drivers do have the right to refuse chemical testing—but that decision comes with consequences. Under the state’s implied consent law, refusing a breath test can result in an automatic driver’s license suspension, separate from any criminal DUI charges.

A first-time refusal may lead to a 270-day license suspension, while repeat refusals can result in longer suspensions. A refusal could also become part of the evidence considered in a DUI case.

Understanding your rights before making a decision is critical. If you’re facing a DUI or DWI charge in Maryland, the attorneys at Alpert Schreyer can review the details of your case, explain your options, and help protect your future.
