Felony DUI’s (Evading, Hit & Run, Injuries & Death)

Fighting A Felony DUI

A charge of felony driving under the influence can arise as a result of being arrested for DUI and having suffered three or more prior convictions for driving under the influence or wet reckless within the past ten years; or by being involved in an accident and causing injury or death in the course of driving under the influence. In the case of a death, an individual could be charged with second degree murder as well. In any case, the charge is serious and can result in confinement in the state prison. An experienced, well respected criminal defense lawyer is essential in defending against such a charge. The defense attorneys at The Law Offices of Timothy B.
