This refers to the “Implied Consent Statutes” which is the law that states a “person who drives a motor vehicle in this State is considered to have given consent to chemical tests of his breath, blood, or urine for the purpose of determining the presence of alcohol or drugs…if arrested…while driving…under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or a combination of alcohol and drugs.” In other words, any person operating a vehicle is considered to have agreed to submit to testing of his breath, blood or urine if alleged to have committed a crime while under the influence. A person can refuse to take these tests but face immediate suspension of their license to drive for failing to comply. This is a civil penalty separate from any criminal charge.

something to say:
A separation and divorce are already complicated and stressful enough then add the fact you need to find a great attorney, the stress level rises even higher. At a time when I felt lost and uncertain of what I should do and the legal choices available to me, I found Regina. She took the time to discuss my situation and then laid out the options available to me, the good and the bad. I left feeling not alone and for the first time in a long time, in control of my life and future. Regina was there for me and counseled me through the whole process. She took the confusion and the feeling of helplessness away. Regina and her staff were there for me and I could never thank them enough. I have continued to call on Regina for legal advice and when anyone I know who needs an attorney I recommend her.
Unfortunately, everyone in my family has had to use the services of the Ward Law Firm. Ms. Ward has represented us in criminal matters, family court matters and even motor vehicle issues. She is always very straight forward about what we can expect and has successfully represented us every time. She always keeps our best interest as her top priority. I am not in the habit of recommending businesses unless I am more than satisfied with the services and I can say with confidence that Regina Ward will provide professional, quality and efficient service.
Regina was more than helpful and a pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, highly skilled and genuinely concerned for her clients and their families. I had the most confidence that my son’s needs were being met. She is also someone who makes you feel at ease while going through a stressful time. I would highly recommend working with her if you want to get results.
Ms. Ward is one of the most persuasive and passionate criminal defense attorneys I have dealt with in my career.
I met Regina Ward a few years ago after having the unfortunate experience of getting involved in a real estate deal with a dishonest realtor and builder in Horry County. Regina Ward and I clicked after our initial consult and I knew right away that with her on my side justice would prevail. She never gave up; left no stone unturned and we went all the way to trial where her expertise forced a settlement. Don’t let the pretty face and smile fool you she turns it on when it comes to the research and court. She was awesome and nothing rattled her. My husband and I always joked between us that she was our little pit bull! I would highly recommend her.
Regina Ward represented me in a probate matter and I enjoyed working with her. It was a tough time for me but she truly made it smoother and easier than it would have been without her help.
Having Regina Ward as my attorney I was confident my case would be heard with legal clarity and I would prevail. Regina took my case when others would not. She devoted numerous weekend hours to be prepared for a court hearing scheduled within 5 days. I could not have been more confident having such a caring, smart and strong attorney representing me. I will always be grateful.
I have personally known Regina Ward for almost 30 years. She has successfully handled legal issues for me regarding contract law, insurance and securities matters, as well as my daughter’s divorce case. She is one of the most talented professionals that I’ve ever worked with, but most important she gets the job done for her clients. With Regina Ward, you pay for results and not promises!
Regina Ward represented me in a criminal matter and displayed much care and concern for my case and constantly followed up with me as we moved forward. The outcome was in my favor and I could not have been more pleased with how she represented me. I have had many attorneys in my line of work and I would have to say that not only did Regina have much care and concern, she displayed the most class of all combined.
Regina represented me in my divorce. She was very professional, and covered every aspect of my case. I needed a forensic accountant which she suggested. All was done in a timely manner. I was very happy with my results and her performance. I have and do highly recommend her.
I have to say Regina is amazing. She knows her stuff! She is not only completely thorough and extremely competent; she is there for her clients in every aspect. I would not use any other attorney for my legal needs other than Regina Ward!
Regina and her staff were a godsend for me during my divorce! They were professional, knowledgeable and extremely patient, as they guided me through the most difficult process of my life. I recommend Ward Law Firm to every person who mentions a need for a family attorney.
Regina and her staff made a very difficult time in my life easier. She was there for me throughout my separation and divorce, any question or concern I had, no matter how small, she was there with an answer. I trusted her completely and I felt very confident about my case knowing that I had Regina and her wonderful staff on my side to represent me.
Regina Ward assisted me in the preparation and execution of a Settlement Agreement that allowed my ex-husband and me to move forward toward the resolution of our marriage without subjecting our daughter to additional undue hardship in an already difficult time. Regina was able to answer questions in a manner I could understand, and brought other matters to my attention that I had not considered for inclusion in our Agreement. Once the statutory time passed, Regina further assisted me in finalizing the divorce. I cannot say enough about the knowledge and professionalism of Ms. Ward and her staff.
