Phoenix DUI with Injury Defense Lawyers
You may be charged with a felony DUI with injury offense if you are found driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs at the scene of an accident that involves injury to another person. This charge is also known as aggravated DUI, the most severe DUI charge under Arizona Law. Field sobriety tests and a BAC (blood alcohol content) test which consists of breath or blood test can be expected at the scene. A higher BAC will determine the severity of penalties if convicted. 0.08% to 0.014% BAC is within the normal DUI range, 0.015% to 0.19% BAC is an extreme DUI and anything reading over 0.20% BAC is considered a “super extreme” DUI in Arizona.
