At Schwartz Trial Law LLC, we provide personal injury and criminal defense legal services for clients throughout the Dunwoody, Georgia area, including those facing aggravated DUI charges. Aggravated DUI (Driving Under the Influence) charges carry more severe penalties than a standard DUI and require precise, skillful legal representation to navigate. Our team is prepared to work closely with you and provide the guidance you need throughout the process.
An aggravated DUI typically involves certain factors that elevate it from a standard DUI. These factors can vary, but some common circumstances may include:
- DUI With a Child in the Vehicle — If a minor under the age of 14 is in the vehicle with you at the time of your DUI, this can result in an escalation to an aggravated DUI.
- DUI on a Suspended or Revoked License — If you are caught driving under the influence with a suspended or revoked license, the DUI may be considered aggravated.
- Fleeing the Scene of an Accident — Leaving the scene of an accident while under the influence can lead to aggravated DUI charges, especially if there are injuries or property damage.
- Multiple DUI Convictions — For individuals who have multiple DUI charges within a set period (typically 10 years), new DUI charges may be escalated to aggravated, resulting in harsher penalties.
We understand the severity and complexity of aggravated DUI charges, and we are committed to ensuring you receive fair treatment under the law.
