Driving Under the Influence

In Virginia, intoxication is presumed if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is 0.08% or greater. If a police officer finds you driving a vehicle while intoxicated, you will most likely be arrested for a DUI.

Since DUI is a class 1 criminal misdemeanor charge, the penalties can be severe if the judge finds you guilty. For a first offense, punishments may include:

  1. Up to a year in jail
  2. Fines starting at $250 (and up to $2500)
  3. A license suspension of up to 12 months*
  4. Mandatory jail time if your blood alcohol content was .15 or more

If you have been charged with a DUI, we may be able to help.

 

Client Reviews

I highly recommend choosing Peter Louie as your defense attorney. I chose Peter because of his many excellent Google reviews, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome–he defended me against a DUI charge and won a “not guilty” verdict. In addition to winning, Peter did a fantastic job on all fronts.

Mr. Louie is amazing! I was charged with a DUI that involved an accident. Mr. Louie got my bac thrown out and was able to negotiate no jail time even though I had caused an accident! I am so grateful for his services and highly recommend him to anybody in need of legal assistance!
