There are many reasons why when prosecuted for a drink driving charge, you may be at risk of a possible custodial drink driving prison sentences if convicted. These range from providing a high reading to committing repeat drink drive offences or being involved in an accident whilst heavily over the limit.
Where offending has been fuelled by addiction to drink or drugs, the court will be inclined to look more favourably on an offender who has already demonstrated a genuine, self-motivated determination to address his addiction. Youth and immaturity, while affording no defence, will often justify a less severe penalty than would be appropriate for an adult.
Some measure of leniency will ordinarily be extended to offenders of previous good character, the more so if there is evidence of positive good character (such as a solid employment record or faithful discharge of family duties) as opposed to a mere absence of previous convictions. It will sometimes be appropriate to take account of family responsibilities, or physical or mental disability.
Geoffrey Miller drink driving solicitors have maintained a 100% track record of avoiding custody for clients facing drink related charges even when they are repeat offenders. The one exception to this being when a client was also disqualified from driving at the time of committing the offence.

When should I instruct you to avoid a drink driving prison sentence?
We want to explore all possible avenues when it comes to gathering evidence in support of your mitigation so to give yourself the best chance of achieving a lenient penalty, we advise that you instruct us as soon as possible.
We may need to obtain medical evidence in support of your mitigation which will take time. We will also want to fully advise you about what to expect at court and reassure you of our intended strategy. Whilst we can often react to instructions placed with us less than 24 hours before a court hearing, we would much rather get involved weeks or months before a court date.
Pleading guilty to the charge is not your only option, however, and you may prefer to consider possible drink driving defences before you make a decision on what to do next.
**Less than 1% of our clients in our trading history have been sent to prison in exceptional circumstances such as one case involving a breath reading of 180 μg and other cases where multiple other offences were committed such as dangerous driving and disqualified driving and multiple repeat offences when committed whilst on bail. We have also had one case where a custodial penalty was imposed when a client changed their plea from Not Guilty to Guilty midway through the case in an exceptionally high reading case with multiple aggravating features.
