Underage DUI Defense Lawyer for Alameda & Contra Costa County
Alameda & Contra Costa County Underage DUI Attorney Also Representing the Bay Area
Has your underage son or daughter been charged with a DUI? Perhaps the only thing more stressful than being charged with drunk driving or other driving under the influence offense yourself is when it is happening to your child. Any person under the age of 21 who is arrested or charged with a DUI can be facing different consequences depending on his or her exact age. An underage adult (age 18 to 20) may be given much harsher charges and sentencing if convicted than a minor.

There are serious penalties for any DUI charge so make sure you have the help of a lawyer with the knowledge and dedication needed to get results in such a case.

The penalties for underage DUI are severe. California has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to anyone under the age of 21 drinking and driving. If the driver is a minor under the age of 18 and has a
BAC
of 0.01% he or she will be arrested for DUI and may get a suspended license for one year or until their 18th birthday—whichever is greater. He or she may also have to pay expensive fines and attend substance abuse counseling.
