Fighting a DUI/DWI Charge

The penalties for DUI (driving under the influence) and DWI (driving while intoxicated) offenses can be very serious.

Will you need to hire an attorney to handle your DUI or DWI case? What about the public defender?

How the rising-blood-alcohol defense is used by defendants with high blood alcohol concentrations (BAC) in DUI cases.

In all states, an adult who drives with a blood alcohol content (BAC) level of .08% or above is guilty of a DUI or DWI. (The limit in Utah is now .05%.) For drivers under the age of 21, almost all states set the limit at .01% or .02%. Police officers often administer chemical tests to measure the BAC

You can get a DUI for operating a vehicle while under the influence of legal drugs, including prescription and over-the-counter medications.

Medical conditions, like diabetes, epilepsy, and vertigo, can cause DUI-like behavior and lead to mistaken arrests.
