About Aggravated DUI Offenses

Gilbert Aggravated DUI Defense Attorney

Aggravated DUI is a serious felony offense, and if you or a loved one has been charged with this offense, you are in serious legal trouble.  This charge can be filed against an individual who it is determined was driving DUI but had the following added conditions:

• A young person under 15 years of age in the car
• Driving with a suspended or revoked license
• 2 earlier DUI convictions within the past 7 years

When law enforcement through breath or blood testing determined that you are over the legal limit of .08% or higher and discover these other conditions exist, you will be charged with a felony aggravated DUI.  No felony offense is a minor matter - if you are convicted you can face a driver's license revocation for 3 years, go to state prison for a minimum of 3 months and could face up to $150,000 in fines, as well as ruining your ability to practice certain professions or hold certain licenses.  It is crucial that you get legal help at once from a Gilbert DUI defense lawyer if you have been arrested and charged with Aggravated DUI.
