Even if it’s your first offense, a Colorado DUI can significantly affect how you live your life from now on. No matter the outcome of your trial, your arrest will appear (at least temporarily) on your permanent record.
Additional difficulties can include:
- Higher insurance premiums.
- The installation of an ignition interlock device.
- Even potential job loss.
- A suspended driver’s license.
In other words, you’ll face significant changes in many aspects of your everyday life.
Do Not Go At It Alone
If you’ve been accused of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, don’t assume that the court will provide leniency because it’s your first offense. No matter the circumstances surrounding your DUI, a skilled Colorado Springs DUI lawyer can help.
