Los Angeles Prior DUI Charge

In Los Angeles, a fourth DUI charge within 10 years is treated as a felony Los Angeles DUI. This means that you face penalties far greater than those for a misdemeanor DUI, including time spent in state prison. If you have been arrested for a LA DUI, it is imperative that you contact a qualified Los Angeles DUI Attorney.  Additionally, your license will be revoked for up to 4 years. It is almost certain that your car will be sold as a nuisance, unless there are mitigating factors. Additionally, being a convicted felon will make you ineligible for certain jobs and other programs within the United States.

A felony conviction is the most serious type of conviction you can face – without a dedicated Los Angeles DUI defense attorney to help you with your case, the consequences are grim. A Los Angeles DUI defense attorney may be able to get the felony charges reduced – either by eliminating prior charges, or by building a successful defense for your current Los Angeles DUI charge.

Free Consultation
Felony Los Angeles DUI proceedings are somewhat different from misdemeanor proceedings and you will be required to attend your arraignment, regardless as to whether or not you have retained your own counsel. However, it is important to realize that despite some of the different requirements, the basic process will be the same, and will progress from arraignment to pretrial, and from pretrial to the actual trial, jury deliberations and sentencing.

If there was an accident, injury or other unique circumstance surrounding your Los Angeles felony DUI, do not hesitate to provide this information to your defense counsel. Your Los Angeles DUI defense attorney will be better prepared to provide you with the most effective defense possible, so long as you provide timely and relevant information to help the case.
