Understanding DUI Consequences: What You Need to Know
Do you have a DUI and are unsure of the actual repercussions for such an offense? Hi, I’m Tahlequah criminal attorney Aaron Grubb at Wirth Law Office. In this video, we’re going to talk all about DUIs.
First off, a first offense DUI without any other prior traffic infringement is serious. The statute states that you can be put in jail for up to one year, with an accompanying fine of up to $1,000. Although it’s still considered a misdemeanor, the consequences can significantly impact your life.
The Consequences of Multiple DUIs
If you were to get another DUI within five years of your first conviction, then the stakes are raised significantly. In this case, the offense can be enhanced to a felony. This means you could potentially face up to five years in jail and a much higher fine of $2,500.
DUIs are not something to take lightly, as the repercussions can affect various aspects of your life, including employment opportunities and personal relationships. If you have a pending DUI case, please let me know. I’m Tahlequah defense attorney Aaron Grubb at Wirth Law Office.
