Felony DUI/DWI

KANSAS CITY METRO FELONY DUI DEFENSE ATTORNEY LOCATED IN BLUE SPRINGS

First-time misdemeanor DUI is like getting hit by a brick. But there is a whole class of more serious DUI charges that are like a whole wall crashing down on you:

A second conviction within five years will earn you a year in prison, a fine up to $1,000, and loss of your license for a year.
A third DUI will label you a “persistent offender,” take your license, sentence you to up to four years in prison and get you a fine up to $5,000. (Class D felony)
A fourth conviction will label you as an “aggravated offender.” Prison time is now up to seven years. (Class C felony)
A fifth conviction will label you as a “chronic offender” — five to 15 years in prison. (Class B felony)

You think this can’t happen to you, or that someone with aggravated DUI or multiple offenses deserves what they get. But these offenses, which could be no more than a drink at an anniversary or graduation party 10 years apart, can actually happen to anybody who’s unlucky enough to be pulled over.
