Multiple DUI Offense Cases in Tempe
Tempe DUI Defense Attorneys
Arizona does not take
DUI offenses lightly. A first-time DUI offense can land a person with jail
time, license revocation, and large fines. A subsequent DUI conviction
can land a previously convicted person with extremely harsh repercussions.
In Arizona, a DUI charge is considered “subsequent” if a prior
conviction occurred within 84 months (or 7 years) of the subsequent charge,
regardless of the state the prior conviction occurred. It is important
that a person facing a second, third, or fourth DUI seek a seasoned multiple
DUI lawyer immediately.
If you have been charged with second, third, or fourth DUI,
contact our Tempe DUI attorneys at Suzuki Law Offices, L.C.C. We work hard to help those facing criminal
charges. Your fight is our fight. Let us protect your rights!
The Consequences for Multiple DUI Convictions
While a first DUI conviction may only be considered a misdemeanor, the
offense of a second, third, or fourth DUI may result in longer jail sentences,
significantly increased fines and penalties, and potentially a felony
that will remain part of the offender’s permanent record forever.

following consequences.
- License suspension for up to one year
- A jail sentence up to 90 days.
- Fines and assessments accumulating up to $3,000 or more
- Probation for up to 5 years
