What To Expect From A Minor In Possession Charge

Underage drinking is an incredibly common charge, especially in Florida. When a person is arrested for drinking under the age of 21, or worse, for drunk driving under age, there are a variety of different standards and consequences at play. For instance:

• A person under the age of 21 cannot have any alcohol in their system. A blood alcohol content of 0.02 or higher can lead to a charge
• Expulsion, suspension or other sanction from an educational institution
• Loss of eligibility for scholarships, Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) funding, Reserve Officer Training Corp (ROTC) program eligibility and other financial benefits
• Upon conviction, $500 in fines and 6 months in jail

For many families and young people, a proactive approach to an underage drinking charge is the best possible option. Between a strong analysis of the evidence, our in-depth legal analysis and our knowledge of local courts, we are prepared to support you throughout the course of your case.
