Fines
  • If it's your first time, the maximum fine you
    will have to pay is 1000. But in addition to
    that, you may have to pay court charges. In usual
    scenarios, you don't have to pay the entire
    penalty but you should expect to pay more than
    500 amount in the penalty.

Prison Time
  • If its your first time with drunk driving, still
    you will have to go to prison. The maximum time
    first-time offenders will have to serve is six
    months, but the suspension of jail time is under
    the discretion of the court. If you are first the
    time offender, its important to consult the best
    DUI lawyer in Las Vegas. How much time you will
    spend in prison depends on criminal history,
    injury to the third party and drug level. You can
    get your sentence suspended if you don't face
    such charges. But if your case has such legal
    factors, then you need the consultation of the
    top attorney to justify your case.

Probation
  • You will have to face such a situation if your
    sentence is suspended. Under probation, the court
    may direct you to undergo substance evaluation
    and treatment. You may be asked to attend a DUI
    school or attend the victim impact panel. You
    will be also ordered not to break any law of
    state or local authority. If you try to avoid
    your probation, you will have to face jail time.
    The court is not that strict if it's your
    first-time violation of probation. But, still,
    you will have to spend a few days in jail if you
    try to avoid probation.

License suspension
  • For the first time offenders, suspension of
    driving license is the first penalty they have to
    face. The suspension period is three months but
    you can get a restricted license after 45 days.
    You can use this license to travel for work,
    probation appointments and other limited
    destinations.
