Anderson County DUI Attorneys

Many people make the mistake of thinking of DUI as a minor charge since so many people are arrested for it each year. Routine does not mean insignificant. The fact is that you can face major consequences if you are convicted of the crime.

Even a first offense could lead to possible jail time. Those convicted for the first time could face potential imprisonment of up to 30 days. In addition, convicted drivers will lose their license for six months automatically on the first offense with no questions asked. The penalties rise significantly for subsequent convictions.

When you have been charged with DUI, you are faced with a choice. Even if the evidence seems like it is against you, conviction is not always automatic. You can opt to find the charges, most often because the evidence is faulty or your rights have been violated.

You also have the option of negotiating a plea deal with the prosecutor, pleading guilty in exchange for a lighter sentence. The plea bargain could allow you to avoid jail time or give you a reduced sentence. Still, one conviction could mean far greater penalties if you are charged again in the future. In addition, there are also possible effects on your reputation and employment to consider.

What is most important in a DUI case is knowing both your rights and your legal options. Hiring an experienced attorney allows you to understand what you are facing and how to proceed. The alternative is trying to navigate the criminal process alone.
