Felony DUI Lawyer in West Palm Beach

What makes a DUI a felony?

Charges of DUI are serious and could have significant repercussions. Usually considered a misdemeanor, a DUI could actually be classified as a felony under certain conditions. Not surprisingly, a felony DUI incurs stronger consequences than a misdemeanor DUI because of the severity of the offense. There are several typical features that could result in a felony DUI.

Although certain laws may vary from state to state, you could be charged with a felony if:

  • There is a child in the car in which the driver is under the influence
  • You have multiple, prior DUI charges
  • You are driving under the influence without a valid driver's license
  • Your DUI resulted in thousands of dollars in property damage or severe bodily harm

Facing DUI charges can be frightening, particularly if there does not seem to be very much that can be offered in defense. However, you may be surprised to learn that there are ways to defend your rights and perhaps even be acquitted of your charges. It is essential that you seek the help of a trustworthy and experienced attorney who knows how to defend you against the charges you are facing.
