Defending Clients Facing Drunk Driving Charges

Driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol and drugs is a leading cause of traffic accident fatalities across the country. As a result, drunk driving is heavily penalized from state to state. When convicted of DUI in Illinois, the penalties are harsh, even for someone who has never before been charged with DUI.

The penalties for a first DUI offense in Illinois are as follows:

  • Maximum fine of $2,500
  • Maximum jail sentence of 1 year
  • License suspension for 1 year
  • Vehicle registration suspension
  • Ignition interlock device (IID)

Anyone convicted of DUI will also have a black mark on their criminal record that can be viewed by potential schools or employers, affecting their chances of getting into college and / or building a decent career. All of these penalties can be affected even more severely, however, when a person is charged with multiple DUI offenses.
