While it's true that Arizona DUI penalties are harsh, they don't mean your life is over. If convicted, you will face a variety of criminal and administrative penalties, which can include paying fines, attending counseling, installing an ignition-lock device in your car, and even serving jail time. This is why you should contact an Arizona DUI attorney right away if you are arrested for a DUI. Depending on your case, your attorney may be able to prevent a conviction or, if you are convicted, present your case so that you receive reduced fines, suspended jail time, or a shorter probation period.
