30 Day Warning

If you have been charged with DUI in Danielsville, you only have 30 days to save your license from being suspended. You can either submit a request for an Administrative License Suspension (ALS) hearing or install an ignition interlock device on your vehicle. No decision should be made without first consulting with an experienced lawyer. A failure to request a hearing or install the device within 30 days will result in a suspension of your Georgia driver's license.

Felony DUI Charges in Danielsville 

Most DUI charges are classified as misdemeanor offenses. However, there are certain situations where the DUI can be charged as a felony offense. Once convicted of a felony DUI in Georgia, it will stay on your record for the rest of your life. The punishment for a felony DUI extends beyond prison and hefty fines. People who have a felony on their criminal record generally lose the right to hold public offense, the right to vote, and lose the ability to own and possess firearms. It can also make it more difficult to obtain housing, credit, or employment.

A person will be charged with felony DUI in Georgia if they are convicted of a fourth DUI or subsequent DUI within 10 years. The penalty is a prison term between one and five years and a fine up to $5,000. Additional consequences include a minimum of 60 days of community service, a clinical evaluation, and DUI school.

It is important to note that a person convicted of a third or subsequent DUI within five years will be classified and declared a habitual violator. Habitual violator is a status and not a criminal offense in and of itself. However, there are penalties that accompany a habitual violator status. One such penalty is that a HV will have their license revoked for five years.

Whether this is your first, second, third, or fourth DUI, our Danielsville DUI Lawyers can help.
