Facing Criminal Accusations?

We’re Here to Help

How do a misdemeanor and felony differ?

Misdemeanors and felonies represent two distinct categories of criminal offenses, differing in severity and consequence. Misdemeanors generally result in less severe punishments, such as fines, community service, or short jail sentences, while felonies carry harsher penalties, including imprisonment for over a year, substantial fines, or even the death penalty in extreme cases.

Understanding this contrast is vital for individuals involved in the legal system as it informs their understanding of the potential implications of the charges and helps them make informed decisions about legal representation and options.

Is there a difference between DUI and OUI?

There is often no substantial difference between a DUI (Driving Under the Influence) and an OUI (Operating Under the Influence). Both terms generally refer to the act of driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs above the legal limit. The specific term used may vary by state, with some using DUI and others using OUI interchangeably to describe impaired driving offenses. While some jurisdictions may make a distinction between the two terms, many consider them to be the same in practice.

Why is a DMV hearing request important after a DUI?

The first seven days following a DUI are essential for filing a DMV hearing request, which is a petition to contest the suspension of your driver’s license. If you fail to submit this request within that timeframe, your license could be suspended. Our office offers to handle this process for you at no cost and with no obligation.

What factors determine whether a crime is classified as a misdemeanor or a felony?

Various factors such as the severity of the offense, presence of aggravating/triggering circumstances, the defendant’s criminal history, and state laws influence the classification of a crime as a misdemeanor or a felony.

What is the legal blood alcohol content limit?

The legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit for most drivers in the United States is 0.08%. This means that if a driver’s BAC level is measured at or above 0.08%, they are considered to be driving under the influence (DUI) or operating under the influence (OUI) and are subject to legal consequences.
