Tallulah DUI Attorney

Call Us | 318-377-1555

Getting charged with a DUI can be overwhelming for many reasons. Not only can this charge come with serious consequences, but you may also find yourself with a suspended license or having to pay large fines as well. If you have been charged with a DUI in Louisiana, it can be overwhelming to know what steps you should take next to protect your rights.  

This is why our team at John D. & Eric G. Johnson Law Firm works hard to provide our clients with the personalized attention they deserve and to ensure they have the best legal representation available. Regardless of how your DUI charge occurred, our experienced Tallulah criminal defense lawyers will fight for your rights and offer you the most favorable resolution possible.

What Is Considered a DUI in Louisiana?

A DUI is defined as operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In order to be charged with a DUI in Tallulah, you must have reached at least 0.08% blood alcohol concentration (BAC). There are also other factors that can contribute to your charge, such as if you are younger than 21 if you have prior DUI convictions, or if your BAC is significantly above the legal limit. 

For underage drivers, the state BAC limit is 0.02%. For all other adults, the legal limit is 0.08%. It’s also possible that your charge may be elevated to a felony, depending on the circumstances of your case. 

If you’re facing a DUI charge in Tallulah, our experienced DUI lawyers are here to help. We know that the consequences of a conviction can be severe and significantly impact your future, so we will do everything possible to get your charges reduced or dropped.

The Consequences of a DUI in Tallulah

If you are charged with driving under the influence in Tallulah, there is potential for jail time, fines, and other serious consequences. The penalties depend on your case’s details, as well as any prior offenses. 

The consequences of a DUI conviction can also include license suspension, installation of an ignition interlock device (IID) in your vehicle, mandatory DUI education classes, high insurance rates, and other sanctions.

In cases of multiple DUI convictions within 10 years or if there was an injury involved, such charges may be elevated to a felony offense, thereby yielding much harsher punishments.

Potential Felony Conviction

With a felony on your record, you may be subjected to even further restrictions, such as loss of driving privileges, inability to possess firearms, or a suspension of your professional license. 

Felonies can even make it difficult to find work or obtain housing. That’s why it’s essential to have a strong legal defense on your side if you are facing any kind of DUI charge in Tallulah. 

Because Louisiana is a zero-tolerance state, even a first offense can result in considerable fines and other consequences. Partnering with an experienced Tallulah DUI lawyer can help your case, and your lawyer will work to minimize any charges against you.
