An individual arrested in Ohio for DUI, DWI, or OVI can face felony level criminal charges if he or she has:
• 3 or more prior DUI or OVI offenses in the past 6 years
• 5 or more prior DUI or OVI offenses in the past 20 years
• A prior felony DUI or OVI offense lifetime
A conviction for felony DUI / OVI carries severe penalties including mandatory jail and/or prison, a driver's license suspension from 3 years to life, vehicle forfeiture and fines ranging from $1,300 to $10,500. A refusal or high breath, blood or urine test result can dramatically increase the penalties in DUI / OVI cases. That is why it is absolutely essential to have a tough, smart DUI defense lawyer on your side with ample experience defending clients in high-stakes drunk driving cases.
