What Makes a DUI a Felony
At the Law Office of Jeffrey G. Hester in Pelham, Alabama, we handle felony DUI defense. Felony DUI is a fourth or subsequent conviction for driving under the influence. It is important to know that if you are charged with felony DUI, you are facing prison time, serious penalties and the loss of your driver's license for an extended period of time. In certain cases, the state may revoke a repeat offender's driver's license permanently.
