Fort Lauderdale Felony DUI Attorney

What constitutes a felony charge in Florida?

Depending on the particulars of your case, your DUI charges may either be classified as a misdemeanor or a felony. Felony DUI is the more serious of the two. You may have been charged with a felony DUI if you caused an accident with serious bodily injury because of intoxication. Especially in the event of DUI manslaughter, your DUI will be considered a felony charge. A DUI may also be escalated to a felony if you have had prior DUI offenses, and one DUI conviction within the last 10 years.

Because felony charges are so much more serious than misdemeanors, you should start seeking legal help for your defense case immediately. Remember, you have only been charged and not convicted. In order for a conviction to take place, the prosecution must prove beyond all reasonable doubt that you were under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of your accident, and in the event that your DUI was in connection with an accident that led to injury, they must also prove that you were directly responsible. There is still room for defense in your case, so seek defense from a firm you can trust.
