Penalties Associated with Child in a Car DUI Charge

If you’ve had no prior felony charges and had a BAC above .08 but less than .15, you could face one day to two years in jail. The minimum sentence is generally 10 days, nine of which can be suspended if alcohol classes are taken. A child in a car DUI charge can also result in a minimum number of fines, totaling nearly $4,683, as well as a three-year license revocation. Some individuals may also face 10 years of probation, community service, and a required two years of an ignition interlock device.

For those with one prior felony, jail time can range from eight months to two and three-quarters years in jail. The same three-year license revocation and number of fines apply, including surcharges, prison fund fees, public safety equipment funding, and probation fees.

Regardless of your record, it’s important to have an experienced DUI attorney by your side.

WHAT OUR CLIENTs SAY

“I was totally impressed and grateful for the expertise and successful case Arja handled for me. She answered my calls immediately and saved me a lot of professional and personal heartache. Arja did a great job refuting the State’s evidence and convinced the Prosecutor that my chewing tobacco was a major issue in the case that the officer did not check.”

“First, Arja is a superb and energetic attorney who is always willing to listen and help out in client cases. Second, she works hard for your case to minimize or eliminate penalties for the charges you are facing. She has a good analytical mind and presents your case successfully. Third, she is approachable even outside work hours if the situation calls for it. Always punctual for meetings. Lastly, she is an affordable attorney in comparison to some big-name law firms where personalized and flexible service is almost impossible.
