With a conviction carrying mandatory jail time, fines, license suspension, and the ignition interlock device, depending on the blood alcohol concentration and history, jail can range from 1 day to 6 months for misdemeanors and up to 15 years for a felony.With that being said, if you have been convicted of a DUI n Phoenix I strongly encourage you to seek an experienced DUI Lawyer to represent you. Skilled representation can mean the difference between jail time to substantially reduced charges or dismissal of the DUI charges.
