DUI PENALTIES

Defendants who have been arrested for driving under the influence face a multitude of penalties if convicted. The penalties that a defendant receives depend on the specific aspects of the defendant’s unique case. However, individuals who are convicted of a misdemeanor or felony DUI face the possibility of severe consequences, including:

  • Jail or prison time
  • Extensive fines
  • Alcohol treatment programs
  • Probation
  • Ignition interlock device requirements
  • License suspensions or revocations
  • Insurance cancellation or increase

If a person has had one or more prior DUI convictions within the last 10 years, was traveling at an excessive rate of speed, traveling with a minor under 14 years of age, refused to take a chemical test as mandated by the implied consent law, or had a blood alcohol content level of .15 percent or higher, he or she is facing harsher penalties. If the person was involved in a multi-car accident and/or left the scene and/or caused injury to any passengers, he or she may face more severe penalties. If convicted of a felony DUI, the sentence can also include substantial time in state prison. If you have been charged with a DUI, our LA-area DUI defense attorneys can help. The lawyers at the Law Offices of Top Gun DUI Defense Attorney Myles L. Berman understand the seriousness of being arrested for DUI and are committed to helping individuals in need.
