Handling DUI cases is the key focus of the criminal defense firm of Carucci Butler, LLC. We regularly handle repeat offender cases for our clients. We will use our experience to help you fight these charges.
Penalties for Repeat DUI Offenses
The penalties for a DUI arrest increase with each subsequent drunk driving charge. Fines and suspensions increase, and the possibility of jail time becomes very real. Discuss the facts of your case with an attorney at Carucci Butler, LLC, as soon as possible, because your options become more and more limited with each subsequent DUI charge. Our experienced attorneys will thoroughly review the nuances of your case and look for issues that may be beneficial to you.
What makes repeat DUI offenses so serious is the distinct possibility of jail time. From the second offense on, sentences include mandatory time in jail:
- If convicted of your 2nd DUI offense, you will have to spend a mandatory 60 days in jail, and your sentence could be as long as 18 months.
- If convicted of your 3rd DUI offense, you will have to spend a mandatory 90 days in jail, and your sentence could be as long as two years.
- If convicted of your 4th DUI offense, you will have to spend a mandatory six months in jail, and your sentence could be as long as five years.

A thorough review of the facts of your case may present options for minimizing or eliminating the consequences of your drunk driving arrest.
