When hit with a DUI charge, the first thing you'll encounter is a series of fines and fees. These aren't just one-off payments, but can be part of a larger, ongoing financial commitment that many aren't prepared for. At Davis, Angela Aty, we've seen firsthand how quickly these costs can mount:

  • Court-imposed fines which can often range into the thousands of dollars, depending on the state and severity of the offense.
  • Towing and impound fees for your vehicle, which need to be paid before you can reclaim it.
  • Bail costs, if you were arrested and need to post bail to be released pending your trial.

As critical as it is to address the initial fines and fees, long-term costs, often overlooked, can be even more of a financial strain. Legal fees can be substantial, especially if your case is complex or drawn out. Moreover, once convicted, you can expect your car insurance premiums to shoot up. Our attorneys are skilled in identifying strategies to offset these costs and provide you with a robust defense.

Insurance companies often view DUI offenders as high-risk drivers, leading to increased rates that can last for several years. It's common to see an individual's insurance premium double or even triple after a DUI conviction. Our team can help navigate these murky waters by connecting you with resources that could mitigate these hikes.

Aside from fines and increased insurance rates, a DUI can lead to job loss, especially if your job requires driving. Without a steady income, managing these costs becomes all the more difficult. Similarly, you'll likely face transportation costs if your license is suspended-public transport, taxis, or rideshare services all add up. We can help evaluate your situation and plan for these additional costs, ensuring you stay on your feet financially.

Remember that driving is a privilege that can be substantially limited after a DUI. This limitation not only affects your daily life but also presents a whole new set of expenses. Our team is here to provide support throughout this trying time, keeping you informed and financially prepared.

The legal system can be incredibly complex, and DUI laws vary from state to state. Understanding the specifics of your charge is key to building an effective defense.
