Phoenix DUI Attorney
DUI with Injury / DUI Accidents
Causing an auto accident while driving under the influence is a serious criminal offense. In Arizona, DUI with injury may be classified as a
felony, and a driver may therefore face a minimum of 6 months in prison, along with driver's license suspension, fines and court fees, probation, community service, and court-ordered counseling or rehabilitation.
At Suzuki Law Offices, we understand just how serious DUI accident and DUI with injury charges can be. We are dedicated to providing our clients with the aggressive legal counsel they need to challenge these charges in criminal court, and to protect their driving privileges at their DMV hearings. Phoenix DUI attorney Richard J. Suzuki is a former state prosecutor who is also experienced in criminal defense, applying his knowledge of both sides of Arizona DUI charges to provide his clients with more effective legal representation that addresses their particular needs. For example, in DUI with injury cases the prosecution will need to prove two key elements:
- You were driving under the influence
- You caused the auto accident which resulted in injury to another person
There are numerous minor elements involved in each of those two elements, and a skilled DUI defense lawyer should be able to attack the prosecution's case on all of these. Were you lawfully arrested? Was the breath test which showed an unlawful blood alcohol level administered properly? Did you actually cause the accident? Was the other driver partially or wholly at fault? These are just a few of the questions that can be brought up on your behalf.
By independently analyzing your breath or blood test, investigating all aspects of your case, and conducting an accident reconstruction if necessary, the legal team at Suzuki Law Offices can work diligently to help you avoid a conviction for your DUI with injury charges. We represent clients in the Phoenix metropolitan area and throughout Arizona.
