We are experienced trial attorneys who are dedicated to building a strong defense on your behalf. We remain open to out-of-court settlements that are in our client's best interests. However, we take your case to the courtroom when a fair and just settlement cannot be reached. If you are an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) or RN (Registered Nurse) who could lose your nursing license due to drunk driving charges, DUI drug charges or driving on prescription drug charges, you deserve nothing less than the most vigorous representation.
The Newtonon Law Firm works to minimize the consequences of an arrest or conviction. We offer our skilled legal services to nurses and others who have been charged with DUI on prescription drugs involving the following:
- Cough medicine
- Cold tablets
- Allergy medicine
- Benzodiazepines
- Ativan
- Anti-depressants
The Georgia Board of Nursing oversees licensing revocation and suspension. A conviction could result in mandatory license suspension or revocation. Additionally, when the Board suspects prescription drug addiction, they can order the individual to undergo mental and physical evaluations. If you are found to have an addiction, you may be granted a restricted nursing license.
The Newtonon Law Firm recognizes that some people may have an addiction problem. Treatment is always better than punishment. Whatever situation you are in, our attorneys strive for the best possible outcome on your behalf.
