If you consider renouncing an inheritance, you should discuss your situation with a knowledgeable estate planning attorney before making a final determination, to ensure that you make a fully informed decision regarding the implications of a disclaimer. Your attorney also helps you follow the process required by Georgia law, if you ultimately decide to renounce the inheritance.

If you are pulled over for a DUI in Georgia, the police may ask you to perform field sobriety tests. One of these tests is the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN) test, also referred to as the “DUI eye test.” This gives law enforcement the opportunity to observe you for signs of impairment. However, since there are many factors that can impact the results apart from intoxication, these tests are not always reliable. If you failed the DUI eye test and were arrested for a DUI as a result, it’s vital to have a knowledgeable criminal defense attorney who can fight the charges against you.
