DUI & Felony DUI

Arizona DUI Defense Lawyers

No one ever means to get a DUI or DWI. But the state of Arizona has been cracking down on drunk driving. With more cops on the road and more checkpoints, more and more Arizona drivers are facing drunk driving allegations.

At Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau, in Phoenix, we stand by these drivers. Our team of experienced DUI defense attorneys offers forceful representation that focuses on results. When we say that we are willing to do everything within the bounds of the law to protect you, we mean it. We have to mean it because the consequences of a DUI conviction are serious:

  • High fines
  • Time in jail
  • Driver's license revocation
  • Impoundment of your vehicle
  • Installation of an ignition interlock device

We also represent people charged with extreme DUI. Extreme DUI is often charged when a person's blood alcohol level (BAC) is higher than .15. An extreme DUI with you license suspended is a felony.

Felony DUI Defense

Under Arizona law, aggravated DUI is a felony that carries with it a mandatory minimum sentence. Aggravated DUI usually involves a few different situations. It can be charged when you are facing your third DUI within seven years. It also happens when you've received a DUI while your driver's license was suspended or revoked. Or, when a child younger than 15 was a passenger in the car.

You Won't Beat a DUI Charge by Just Reading About it on the Internet

An arrest for DUI can make your life seem out of control. While learning about the crime on the Internet is a good first step, taking control of your life by calling a DUI defense lawyer is better.
