If you are pulled over by a police officer and a breath test shows a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .08 or higher, you will be charged with driving under the influence (DUI/DWI). However, blood alcohol levels below .08 can also result in unsafe driving charges. Defense Attorney White can defend you against these and all DUI/DWI related charges, including reckless driving, hit and run, and more.

Driving under the influence of alcohol is a serious offense, and the state of Utah is known for its strict enforcement of DUI laws. Utah has some of the most severe DWI/DUI penalties in the country. Even a first time offender faces stiff penalties, including a mandatory jail sentence, license suspension, and a hefty fine. Repeat offenders are subject to a felony conviction and a possible 5 year prison sentence. Other repercussions include an interlock device being installed on your car, which requires a blood alcohol monitor test every time you drive. This is in cases that do not result in your driver's license being suspended or revoked.

A drunk driving conviction can also result in job loss. If a conviction results in suspension or revocation of your license, you may or may not be issued a work permit. For people whose jobs require that they drive, this can cause serious problems. Even if it does not result in job loss, a conviction will appear on your permanent record, which can be seen by all future employers.
