Underage Possession of Alcohol/UPA

Athens Lawyers Defending Those Charged With Underage Possession of Alcohol

On college campuses and in college towns, such as Athens, underage drinking is common. Athens takes a tough stance in enforcing the underage possession law, and local law enforcement is particularly aggressive in regulating this area of the law.

Every night and every weekend, the police charge people with UPA and other alcohol-related crimes. If you have been charged with UPA, you may be surprised to find out that UPA is a misdemeanor crime punishable by up to 6 months in jail and a significant monetary fine.

If you have been arrested for underage possession of alcohol, DUI or another alcohol related crime, Timmons, Warnes & Anderson can protect your rights.
