Tell us the four basics
Continue to a short DUI-specific intake. No essay and no payment.
DUI case-review requests go to
Paid advertising sponsor. The website does not rank or claim this is the “best” lawyer.
A tourist DUI creates two different problems
The criminal case and the driving-privilege process can involve different paperwork and different dates. The intake separates them so a lawyer can review the lead quickly.
Which court has the DUI?
Myrtle Beach Municipal Court, a Horry County magistrate court, and other local courts have different contact information.
Was a suspension notice issued?
A refusal or certain breath-test result may create a separate administrative issue involving driving privileges.
Do you live outside South Carolina?
Your attorney needs to know when you leave, where you are licensed, and which appearances or tasks need immediate attention.
Check 30 calendar days from the notice date
Enter the issue date printed on a South Carolina suspension notice. This does not determine your legal deadline, but it makes the date impossible to ignore.
Official law currently states that a person may request a contested hearing within 30 days of issuance of certain suspension notices. Verify in the South Carolina Code.

Before you leave Myrtle Beach
Can a lawyer handle the case without me returning?
That depends on the court, charge, stage of the case, and the judge’s requirements. The website does not promise remote handling. The intake flags your travel situation so licensed counsel can answer.
Does an out-of-state license make the South Carolina suspension irrelevant?
No assumption should be made. The South Carolina statute addresses a driver’s license, permit, or nonresident operating privilege. A lawyer should review the notice and possible effects in the driver’s home state.
Why ask whether the breath result was .15 or higher?
South Carolina’s administrative-suspension statute specifically addresses refusal and an alcohol concentration of .15 or more. The form uses the answer only to route urgency and prepare a neutral lead summary.
Is the form protected by attorney-client privilege?
Not automatically. The sponsoring firm must complete conflicts and accept the matter before an attorney-client relationship exists. The form intentionally avoids a long factual confession.
