 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Disclaimer: I am not a client but have followed Chris through a Cherokee County case after Cherokee County tried to run over me a few years ago. Chris McCormick has seriously impressed me. Watching how he has handled the Natasha Lopez matter, he comes across as sharp, aggressive when he needs to be, and completely unafraid to challenge government agencies when something doesn’t add up. He also has a rare ability to explain serious legal and constitutional issues in a way normal people can actually understand.

What really sets him apart is his personality. He is genuinely funny, quick-witted, and knows how to use humor without losing sight of the seriousness of the case. His posts are memorable, direct, and often hilarious, but there is clearly a lawyer behind them who understands the issues and is willing to put in the work.

Based on what I have seen, Chris is exactly the kind of attorney I would want in my corner: outspoken, persistent, knowledgeable, and not intimidated by the government simply because it is the government.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This has been one of the best law firms I’ve ever experienced. The team is very responsive and Chris actually took time to talk to me beforehand about the specifics of my wreck. He is very knowledgeable and I felt safe as a client. I also want to thank Christine for always being there to answer my questions and keep me updated. The process was smooth and if I had to do it all over again I’d choose to do it here. Thank you all so much!!!

A true power couple in the field of law and with a sense of urgency they will absolutely take care of you! When the insurance company wasn’t trying to pay up, they dug deep and read all the fine print to make sure I got the maximum amount for my settlement!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After being rear-ended and being involved in a hit and run accident, I didn't know where to turn. Thankfully I was introduced to Chris and Christine when I thought there was no path forward. They did the unthinkable and assisted me in getting the care and compensation that I deserved and treated me like family every step of the way. THEN I was involved in another accident a few months later (Yes 2025 was a rough year 😪) they were right there to save the day again with compassion, quickness and knowledge that I wouldn't have received anywhere else. I really appreciate the entire team at the McCormick Law Firm. I pray I'm never in another accident but if I am, I know who has my back. Thanks again guys!

FAQ

What Happens if I Refuse a Breathalyzer Test?

Refusing a Breathalyzer test will likely result in having your license suspended or even face jail time. The prosecutors may still base a potential DUI/DWI charge on other evidence collected at the scene, including officer observations, or the results of a field sobriety test. Also, your refusal may be used against you in any possible trial.

Driving on our nation’s road is considered a privilege, not a right. Therefore, states can suspend or revoke your driver’s license, levy fines, or even put you in jail for not submitting to a BAC test when suspected of a DUI.

Turns out that under “Implied Consent Laws,” drivers have implicitly consented to a BAC test in exchange for a driver’s license. Bottom line, if you refuse a Breathalyzer, you will surrender your driving privileges, for 12 months. Those with past DUI convictions can face even longer suspensions or even jail time. Of course, some may conclude that the penalty for refusing a BAC test is less severe than a third or fourth DUI conviction, so it really depends.

“No-Refusal” Enforcement: The state can force suspects drunk drivers to submit to testing under the authority of a warrant. Refusing a warrant-ordered BAC test can result in serious contempt charges, and the police can just draw a blood test by force.

What About the 30 Day Rule?

The 30 day rule comes into play if you refused to take a urine, blood or breath test. If this is the case in your situation, you are looking at a one year suspension of your driver’s license. You can avoid this by requesting a hearing to the Georgia Department of Public Safety, which must be handwritten. If you do not make this request within 30 business days of your arrest, then your Georgia driver’s license will be suspended automatically.

What if the Arresting Officer Did Not Read Me My Miranda Rights?

Under Georgia law, a police officer does not have to give a Miranda warning during an officer’s initial DUI investigation. A police officer only has to issue you your Miranda rights after you have been arrested and before the officer interrogates you. You should keep quiet, knowing that the officer is in charge and is listen carefully and watching you. The more you say the more likely you are to incriminate yourself before, during or after you have been arrested.

However, if you have been placed into custody, interrogated, and not issued a Miranda warning any incriminating statements you make will not be admissible in the court of law. It is always a good idea to contact an Cumming Georgia DUI lawyer if you have any questions regarding Miranda rights or any other facet of DUI law.

What Happens if I Plead Guilty to a DUI in a Georgia Court?

Mandatory jail time. Despite your cooperation, the judge ruling over your case has no other choice but to sentence you to jail time. Your license will also be suspended for one year, and you will have a Criminal Record (DUI), making it difficult to get a good job. Higher automobile insurance rates will follow you for years. Then add to all of this, major anxiety and emotional stress that often leads to family and work related issues.
