Mitchell County DUI Defense Lawyer

A DUI arrest in Camilla, Pelham, or anywhere in Mitchell County doesn’t have to derail your future. At Shingler Law, we defend clients charged with DUI throughout the county — focusing on license protection, trial strategy, and the local legal process that can make or break your outcome.

Understanding DUI Charges in Mitchell County

DUI charges often stem from traffic stops on Highway 19, GA-37, or within city limits in Camilla or Pelham. We’ve defended drivers arrested after weekend checkpoints, routine patrols, and accident investigations — and we know how those cases play out in Mitchell County courts.

“Camilla’s court moves fast — and if you’re not ahead of it, you’re already losing ground.”
— William M. Shingler Jr.

License Suspension and the 30-Day Rule

Most clients don’t realize the license suspension process starts before your first court date. If you don’t act within 30 days of arrest, you could lose your license by default. We file appeals, handle forms with the Georgia Department of Driver Services, and guide you through the ALS or interlock permit process from day one.

“Thirty days isn’t a suggestion — it’s a deadline that can cost you months of driving privileges.”
— Kendall “Micaelah” Gale

How Shingler Law Defends DUI Charges

We challenge DUI cases from the ground up — from the stop itself to test procedures and officer conduct. Whether your case is in State Court or Superior Court, we file the right motions, request key evidence, and push for dismissals, reductions, or a trial when needed.

“No one fights harder for our clients in small town courts — because that’s where we do our work.”
— Shingler Law

Specialized DUI Training and Credentials

Attorney William Shingler is certified in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) and is a member of the National College for DUI Defense (NCDD). That means we know when a test was done wrong — and how to prove it in court.
