About Basic DUI

A DUI case in Phoenix usually has two different citations (A1 & A2 charges). A person violates the A1 charge by driving or being in control of a motor vehicle while impaired. The second charge is using actual drugs or alcohol or a combination. A DUI conviction in or around Phoenix results in eight moving points on one’s driving record.

A first-offense DUI is a Class 1 misdemeanor with a minimum jail requirement of one to ten days. Fines of $250 – $2,500 plus surcharges, up to five years of probation, and license suspension may also apply.

About Extreme DUI in Phoenix

An extreme DUI in Arizona is a more serious version of a second offense DUI. This occurs when someone’s BAC is over the statutory limit of .15 (almost double the legal limit). Penalties for an extreme DUI include a minimum mandatory jail sentence of 30 days and a fine of $500 – $2,500 plus surcharges. Most individuals will also have to install and maintain a vehicle interlock device for a year before their driver’s license is fully restored.

About Super Extreme DUI

In Arizona, a super extreme DUI occurs when an individual has a blood alcohol concentration over .20. This requires an extended period of an ignition interlock device – up to 18 months – and a minimum jail sentence of 45 days. Regardless of the type of DUI you’re facing,  Arja’s has DUI defense experience, skills, and resources needed to represent you professionally in all legal proceedings.

Understanding Aggravated DUI

The most serious type of DUI in Phoenix is aggravated DUI. When it comes to this charge, you have the right to a jury trial. There are three different types of aggravated DUIs in Arizona:

  • Aggravated DUI with no driver’s license

  • Aggravated DUI with a child under 15 in the vehicle
