An aggravated DUI attorney is qualified to represent a person charged with any of the three types of aggravated DUI. First, a normal DUI where the driver has 2 or more past DUI convictions within 5 years is considered a class 4 felony. A DUI felony committed on a suspended license or a revoked license is also a class 4 felony. Finally, a class 6 felony results from a DUI with a child under 15 in the vehicle. All of these charges are punishable by time in jail and high fines. This type of charge is very difficult to defend because of malum in se, it is wrong in itself. For example, a judge will normally find it reprehensible to discover a drunk driver had a minor passenger or 2 or more prior DUI's. While the judge's emotions are not part of his findings, they are still relevant and make the need for an aggravated DUI attorney imperative.
