Charged with a DUI? Here’s what you need to know:

A DUI charge can be a life-altering experience, leading to serious penalties such as license suspension, fines, and even jail time.

Alabama essentially has five (5) types of DUIs:

  1. BAC of 0.08% or Higher: If you are caught driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher, you can be charged with DUI.

  2. Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol: Even if your BAC is under 0.08%, you can be arrested if alcohol impairs your ability to drive safely.

  3. Drug-Related DUI: You can be charged with DUI if you are driving under the influence of prescription drugs or illegal substances that impair your ability to operate a vehicle safely.

  4. Combination DUI: Driving under the combined influence of alcohol and drugs can lead to DUI charges.

  5. Impairment by Any Substance: If any substance, legal or illegal, impairs your driving ability, you may face DUI charges. If you're facing DUI alcohol charges, don’t hesitate to reach out to our experienced DUI attorneys.

DUI Penalties: Mitigating the Damage and Protecting Your Future

A DUI conviction can result in severe penalties, including license suspension, fines, and jail time. The exact penalties vary based on factors like prior convictions, BAC levels, and the presence of minors in the vehicle.

  • License Suspension: Typically, a first-time DUI conviction will result in a 90-day license suspension. However, you may be eligible for a hardship license after 45 days and our team can help get that in place.

  • Fines: First-time DUI offenders may face fines ranging from $600 to $2,100, and the amount increases for repeat offenses or high BAC.

  • Imprisonment: Depending on the severity of the offense and any prior DUI convictions, you could face jail time.
