Consequences of a Second DUI Conviction
If you are facing a second DUI arrest, you may understand some of the legal factors involved with a DUI conviction. While any criminal offense is harshly punished by the law, a second DUI conviction can hold serious and permanent repercussions, including:
- A fine up to $4,000 depending on Blood/Breath Alcohol Level
- Imprisonment up to 12 months, with a mandatory 10 day imprisonment if the second conviction is within 5 years of the first
- Vehicle impoundment for 30 days
- License revocation for a minimum of 5 years if the second conviction is within 5 years of the first, with the possibility of hardship reinstatement after 1 year
As you can see, any type of DUI conviction can alter a person's life forever. Besides the obvious lawful repercussions an individual can face, they may also face emotional troubles as well. They may find it difficult or impossible to get a job or keep their reputation. Don't leave your future in the hands of an inexperienced law firm who may be unable to provide a cutting-edge defense for your case.
