DUI Consequences
Even a first DUI offense can have serious consequences, including loss of driving privileges, imprisonment, fines, community service, probation, alcohol treatment, and DUI School. With the right DUI attorney on your side, you can potentially avoid these penalties and secure a brighter future. You have only 10 days to contact the DMV and schedule a hearing regarding the suspension of your driver’s license following a DUI arrest. Failure to do so will result in automatic suspension 30 days after your arrest.

23152(b): It is a misdemeanor to drive with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher.
Vehicle Code section 23153 addresses felony DUI where injuries are involved, and Penal Code sections 191.5 and 192 cover vehicular manslaughter resulting from drunk driving.
