Lawyers Representing Illinois Clients Charged With Aggravated DUI

There is no such thing as a minor charge for driving under the influence or DUI. Virtually everyone is aware of the dangers of driving drunk, and that the penalties for a conviction can be very severe. Aggravated DUI charges, however, are even more serious as they allege that circumstances exist which justify felony prosecution. At the Davi Law Group, we understand the severity of aggravated DUI and the impact such allegations can have on your life. We are committed to helping you protect your rights and your future with responsible and affordable legal representation.

Aggravated DUI Lawyers in Kane County and Will County

Under Illinois law, any DUI charge that is to be handled as a felony is considered aggravated DUI. There are a number of factors that prosecutors must take into account when deciding to move forward with such charges. Such considerations include the driver’s previous history of DUI and the particular circumstances of the case.

Situations in which felony or aggravated DUI charges would be appropriate include, but are not limited to:

  • A driver’s third or subsequent DUI offense, or a second offense with a passenger under 16 in the vehicle;
  • Operation of school bus while under the influence;
  • DUI without a valid driver’s license;
  • Operation of an uninsured vehicle while under the influence; and
  • DUI of a taxi or other vehicle for hire, with a passenger in the vehicle.

Finally, any DUI that results in an accident causing great bodily harm, permanent disability or disfigurement, or death to another person will be charged as aggravated DUI. The specific felony classification and resulting penalties are dependent upon the situational circumstances.
