Penalties for a first-time DUI can range from fines to license suspension, and sometimes even jail time. No two cases are exactly alike, which means it's imperative to get advice attuned to the specifics of your situation. Our attorneys look at the big picture, taking into account the circumstances of your case to minimize the fallout as much as possible.

Factors like your blood alcohol content (BAC) level, your cooperation with law enforcement, and if there was any property damage or injury can significantly influence the severity of your penalties. Our goal at Hyde Law PLLC is to walk you through what these penalties could look like, so you can start constructing a solid roadmap to recovery and defense.

Your first court appearance, often referred to as the arraignment, is your opportunity to enter a plea.

Hyde Law PLLC's legal experts will help ensure you understand the charges against you, the legal ramifications of your plea, and the next steps in the judicial process. Preparation is key, and with our resources, you will face this initial hurdle with a prepared and calm mindset.

  • Choosing to voluntarily attend DUI education programs
  • Seeking substance abuse treatment if necessary
  • Displaying a clear record of safe driving prior to the incident

These mitigating factors can influence the court's view of your case and potentially lead to reduced penalties. At Hyde Law PLLC, we help you identify and leverage such factors to build a more favorable outcome for your case.
