PENNSYLVANIA D.U.I LAW:

 

In Pennsylvania, your blood alcohol contact level (BAC) plays a monumental role in determining potential fines, jail time, and license suspensions you may be facing.  If you have a BAC of .08 percent or higher, you are considered "intoxicated" for D.U.I. purposes.  If you are a minor, a BAC of .02 or greater can constitute intoxication.  Consequences for D.U.I. are more serious for higher BAC levels and for multiple offenses.

 

CONSEQUENCES OF D.U.I. CONVICTIONS:

 

If you are a first time offender with no criminal history, it is possible that you will face jail, fines, and licenses suspensions.  However, you may be eligible for a program where you charge is dismissed in exchange for community service and supervision.  If you have been charged with multiple D.U.I.s the consequences are more severe.  A second time offender faces increased jail, mandatory jail time and/or house arrest.  A third offense may be considered a felony and carry with it a prolonged period of  jail time.

 

If you have been charged with a DUI, the most important thing you can do to give yourself the best chance of minimizing consequences, is to contact an experienced attorney to handle your defense.  Contact me at 724-406-0616 for a free consultation.
