Fort Lauderdale Multiple DUI Lawyer
If you have been arrested and charged with DUI and have a prior DUI conviction, you are in serious legal trouble. It is strongly advised that you immediately contact a Fort Lauderdale DUI attorney to assist you in fighting this charge. The penalties for DUI when you already have an earlier conviction are "enhanced". This means that they are increased radically for each subsequent DUI conviction. In fact, a fourth DUI conviction is a felony charge and if convicted you will likely go to prison and have a felony conviction on your record.
