Consequences of a DUI/OVI Conviction
First, let’s prepare you for what you may be looking at if you were convicted of a DUI/OVI without a lawyer:
- Fines
- Jail Time
- Suspension of driver’s license
- Revocation of driver’s license
- Mandatory alcohol education programs
- Record of DUI Conviction (This remains on your record for your lifetime)
Fines
Second, let’s revisit what kind of fines you are looking at if you are convicted:
- You may be ordered to pay a fine between $375.00 and $1,000.00 and that does not include costs incurred in completing terms of sentence (such as costs of attendance in a driver intervention program, ignition interlock device, alcohol assessment programs and court costs), nor do they cover costs associated with license reinstatement.
