A drunk driving accident is an aggravating circumstance

Getting pulled over and arrested for driving under the influence will normally result in a DUI charge. However, if you are arrested for driving under the influence after an accident, you may face more serious charges and extremely severe penalties. If any injuries were involved in the accident, the charge will almost certainly be elevated to a felony and you will face a potential state prison sentence.

Drunk driving accidents and repeat offenders

While a drunk driving accident alone is considered an aggravating circumstance, your need for immediate legal assistance is even greater if you face a second drunk driving offense. If this is your fourth drunk driving offense in 10 years, you may be facing felony DUI charges. Any time you are being charged with a subsequent offense, you need clear and immediate advice from an experienced DUI lawyer.
