DUI with an Accident

In recent years, California DUI law has become increasingly strict regarding offenses involving an accident. From first-time DUI offenders to felony DUI cases, those who are charged with DUIs have become subject to hard-hitting legal consequences if convicted.

Moreover, when a person is accused of an accident while driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, that person may face more serious criminal charges and increased penalties.

The legal penalties for a DUI with an accident are significant. When a person is convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and causing an accident, that person is subject to probation, jail or state prison commitments, community services, a DMV-approved alcohol education program, driver’s license suspension, and vehicle impoundment.

If you have been arrested for drunk driving and causing a related accident, it is in your best interest to retain a knowledgeable, experienced, and aggressive DUI defense lawyer. A qualified DUI lawyer can educate you as to your options, assist you in making critical decisions, investigate the factors that led to your arrest, and skillfully examine law enforcement personnel. A qualified DUI attorney will be in your corner, aggressively defending your rights to fight your DUI charges successfully.
