Trust The Arizona Criminal Law Team When You Are Charged with Extreme DUI
Arizona is a zero tolerance state when it comes to DUI. As such, there are many offenses on the books with varying degrees of severity. Among the most serious of charges is extreme DUI. While technically a misdemeanor, the consequences can be severe and life altering.
Under Arizona law, anyone suspected of driving with a blood alcohol content of .15% or above will be charged with extreme DUI. The penalties for a first-time offense include:
- 30-day minimum jail sentence
- Six-month maximum jail term
- Mandatory substance abuse counseling
- Fines and financial penalties
- Probation
- 90-day license suspension
- Ignition interlock device
The impact a conviction can have on your personal and professional life is devastating. You likely rely on your vehicle to get to and from work, and may lose your job if your employer finds out you were convicted of DUI.
Then you have the financial penalties and the inconvenience of having to install an ignition interlock device, which you will also have to pay for. Because DUI arrests are part of the public record, anyone can find and publish a photo of your mug shot.

Your first priority when charged with DUI should be obtaining the representation of an accomplished defense DUI attorney. At The Arizona Criminal Law Team, our criminal defense lawyers will work diligently to go over every detail of your case.
If police didn’t follow proper procedures during your arrest or if the testing equipment was faulty or mishandled, your case could potentially be dismissed. The state has an obligation to prove beyond a reasonable down that you were driving under the influence.
