Consequences of a DUI Involving an Accident
When you are driving under the influence (DUI) and arrested, you can face serious penalties. However, if you are involved in an accident while DUI, the penalties increase markedly. Causing any injuries while DUI could lead to criminal charges, especially if the person injured is seriously hurt, or even killed. If convicted, you could face three to six years in prison for injuring someone and four to ten years in prison if a person loses their life in the accident. If you find yourself charged with this crime, it is imperative you contact a Los Angeles DUI lawyer to help you avoid conviction.
