  3. Misdemeaner / Felony DUI Charges Every responsible person should be able to go out and have a couple of drinks with friends while keeping in mind the safety of all concerned. However, it is very easy to forget what happens when someone has one drink too many. It is a small tip-over but once someone has reached that stage, the last thing they think about is the legal alcohol consumption limit. The law places certain limits on the amount of alcohol that can and cannot be present in one’s body while driving. No one should ever get into a vehicle under the influence, but when this does happen and you are pulled over, there are consequences that may come along with those actions. 

  4. When is a DUI considered a misdemeanor? Most driving arrest made in today’s society involve misdemeanor charges which are much more serious than just a small, simple infraction. A misdemeanor is a less serious crime which can result in you paying a small fine, probation, or a short stay in jail. Many times, an individual can lose their driver’s license if convicted of a first offense DUI for a minimum of six months. In addition, if an accident was involved causing injury to another person, the driver can have their license suspended for one year.

  5. How is a felony DUI determined? Is a felony DUI more serious than a misdemeanor? A felony conviction is far worse than a misdemeanor. Most of the time if an individual has a previous DUI conviction, additional drunk driving charges may be brought as felony charges. Having a felony on your criminal record will likely have far more of an impact on an individual in terms of educational and employment opportunities. This is why it’s extremely important to hire a great law firm to help you with your case. Felony DUI’s involve many more court proceedings than a misdemeanor. Because this is the case, it is always necessary to have a good DUI attorney by your side. Choosing the right law professional can determine whether you serve time in a prison cell or you pay a small fine. Always make sure you get the best representation when you’re taking on a DUI charge.
