Chandler Underage DUI Lawyers

Underage DUI (also known as a baby DUI) A.R.S. §4-244 (34-35) – It is unlawful for a person under twenty-one years of age to drive or be in physical control of a motor vehicle while there is any spirituous liquor in the person’s body. In addition, it is unlawful for a person under twenty-one years of age to operate or be in physical control of a motorized watercraft that is underway while there is any spirituous liquor in the person’s body.

In Arizona, the penalties for an underage DUI are even stricter than those for drivers who are over 21 years of age. If an underage driver is suspected of DUI and their BAC is anything above 0.00%, the driver will be cited for driving under the influence. In addition to being charged under A.R.S. § 4-244(34), an underage driver can be charged with a regular DUI, extreme DUI, or a super extreme DUI.

Penalties

An underage driver convicted of being impaired to the slightest degree will face a minimum of ten days in jail, nine of which can be suspended if alcohol screening and treatment is completed. In addition, the underage driver will face fines and assessments totaling $1,250, and a two-year license suspension. A second offense within 7 could result in increased jail time, higher fines, and a longer driver’s license suspension. Depending on the circumstances, there could be additional charges as well.

Other charges may include:

  • Minor in possession of alcohol.
  • Soliciting alcohol.
  • Possessing a fake ID.
  • Identity theft.
  • Refusing to provide a truthful name when detained.
  • Various traffic violations.

Other consequences include higher insurance rates once driving privileges are restored and a DUI on your record. This could affect your employment prospects as well as educational opportunities and scholarships. An underage DUI could have long-lasting consequences.

The best way to avoid an underage DUI is to not consume any alcohol or drugs before driving. But, if you are charged with an underage DUI, you should consult with a criminal defense attorney who is experienced with underage DUI law. An experienced DUI attorney may be able to raise defenses for your charges.

Recently, due to certain circumstances with my son, my family had the need to reach out for legal... advice. After meeting with Marc and Brittany, we decided it would be in my son’s best interest to retain legal counsel. Our decision to go with Attorneys for Freedom was the absolute best choice we could have made for my son, as I do not understand the complexity of the law and was not going to “chance” anything when it comes to my son.When there is a situation that is happening and you do not fully understand all the “ins and outs” and possible consequences, it is awesome to have people who take the time, do not make you feel rushed, work diligently on your case, and explain everything to you step-by-step. Attorneys For Freedom, in particular Brittany and Laura are positively the best! I genuinely appreciate everything they did while working on my son’s case.When the time finally came and understanding that I could not stand up beside my son, having Brittany by his side, I had no concerns and felt beyond confident that he was in great hands with her.Brittany and Laura both were amazing! Their communications, making sure that we had what we needed, understood our choices, knew our options and thoroughly went over every aspect of my son’s situation was monumental.Brittany Huttner, Laura, Marc, and the entire staff at Attorneys for Freedom are truly assets to have on your team! If you ever happen to have the need, TRUST that Attorneys for Freedom are the ones you want!Thank you!!!1000% Recommended!!!read more
