Where There Any Aggravating Circumstances?
There are other factors that could cause you to receive an enhanced sentence, such as, if you have prior offenses, did you cause damage to property, did you injure anyone, endanger a child, etc. You can take the Drunk Driving Enhancements Quiz to determine if there are aggravating circumstances in your case. If there are, an attorney may be able to help mitigate some of those factors, but in many states even those sentence enhancements have been made mandatory for some factors – such as for repeat offenders – so hiring at attorney may not help much, if at all, in the long run.
