Multiple DUI Defense

Do you have prior DUI convictions on your record?

Having a prior DUI conviction on a person's record will immediately result in him/her facing enhanced penalties for a Long Beach DUI charge. These penalties increase when facing a second, third, fourth or subsequent driving under the influence charge; they can result in permanent driver's license suspension, as well as several years in state prison. If you or someone you love are facing their second, third or fourth charge, it is the logical step to consult with a DUI lawyer.

By talking to an experienced DUI lawyer, you can make the determination as to the seriousness of the charges that you are facing, as well as the necessity of a DUI lawyer in the first place.

Additionally, consulting a DUI defense lawyer can give you a clearer picture of what you she may be up against in the immediate future in regards to your criminal charges.

Multiple DUI Offenses Can Lead to a Felony

While commonly a misdemeanor, there are instances where a DUI can be tried as a felony. One of the ways in which this can happen is in cases where a defendant is charged with their fourth DUI.
