Extreme DUI and Super Extreme DUI

Extreme and Super Extreme DUI Defense Attorney ◦ Scottsdale, Arizona

You may have been charged with an "extreme DUI" in Arizona if your blood alcohol content (BAC) exceeded 0.150 — which the law holds to be a dangerously elevated level. The penalties will likely be greater if your BAC exceeded 0.200, which Arizona now classifies as a “Super Extreme DUI”.

If you face extreme or super extreme DUI charges, then you are likely in a legal emergency. Contact Bergman Law Offices, PLLC to schedule a free initial consultation and discuss your situation with experienced DUI defense lawyer Stewart Bergman.

Penalties

If you are convicted for extreme DUI, you may be facing a mandatory minimum sentence of 30 days, impoundment of your car for 30 days, a mandatory installation of an ignition interlock device on your car, and a one-year revocation of your driver's license. The penalties are even greater for those charged under Arizona’s new Super Extreme DUI laws.

Experienced Attorney

Attorney Stewart Bergman is a former prosecutor with a great deal of experience in handling all types and degrees of DUI cases. Mr. Bergman is prepared to mount a vigorous defense aimed at preserving your freedom, your driving privilege and your record.

First Offense

If you are charged with a first-offense extreme DUI, Mr. Bergman will take a close look at the circumstances behind your traffic stop. Did the police officer have probable cause to stop you in the first place? Were you unfairly singled out because of your ethnic identity, the condition of your automobile, or the time and place you were driving?

Secondly, did the police follow legal protocol in all steps of your arrest for DUI, including the administration of your field sobriety tests, breathalyzer tests and/or blood tests?

Repeat Offense

On the other hand, if your extreme DUI arrest is for a repeat offense, Mr. Bergman will begin by closely examining your previous extreme DUI conviction. There may be valid reasons to have that DUI conviction overturned, thereby preventing it from counting as a prior offense.

Impounded Vehicle

There are a number of other challenging matters to deal with when you have been charged with extreme DUI, such as the release of your impounded vehicle.
