Let Our Experienced Attorneys Protect You From Serious Penalties

If you are convicted of a felony DUI charge in Panama City, it is important to understand the potential consequences and how you could potentially fight the charges. A felony DUI conviction can have serious long-term repercussions for your life, so it is important to act quickly and obtain experienced legal representation.

According to Florida law, someone faces felony DUI charges if:

• They have three or more convictions within 10 years of their most recent offense
• They have four or more convictions (regardless of intervening times)
• Their blood alcohol level is 0.15% or higher when they are tested during their arrest
• Other aggravating factors, such as having minors in the vehicle while driving under the influence, may also lead to enhanced penalties and potential felonies with severe punishments
