Ventura County DUI Causing Injury Attorney

DUI Involving Accidents

Any drunk driving or DUI arrest in Ventura County, California can carry very heavy fines and penalties.  If an individual is arrested and charged for drunk driving or a DUI involving drugs or medication after a car accident involving injury or manslaughter, these already severe DUI penalties go to an even higher level of punishment.   An individual can be charged with DUI manslaughter if that person is determined to have caused an accident while impaired by drugs or alcohol and there was loss of life.  In the case where there was no loss of life but one or more persons were injured after a car accident due to the driver being allegedly driving under the influence, the penalties are slightly less severe.
