Accused of causing injuries in a DUI?

Any arrest for drunk driving is a critical situation for the suspect, but if you are accused of causing injuries through drinking and driving, the penalties you face may be far more severe. You need to speak with a knowledgeable Baltimore DWI attorney about the evidence in your case and get started immediately on a plan for resolving the situation. The outcome of your case depends on careful preparation and aggressive representation in the courtroom, because the prosecution will most likely try to have you sentenced to the full extent allowable under law.

Maryland has strict penalties for drivers who cause injuries in cases of DUI involving drugs. The punishment will depend on your blood alcohol content as determined by breath & blood tests. If you are convicted for causing a life threatening injury in a DWI, you can be sent to prison for 2 years and fined $3,000. In cases of DUI, causing life threatening injuries can send you to prison for 3 years, and cost you $5,000 in fines. If it was a fatal accident, you could be charged with vehicular manslaughter and imprisoned for 10 years.
