DUI Charges & Pennsylvania DUI Laws

In Pennsylvania and NJ one of the most common crimes to be arrested for is impaired driving, driving under the influence, driving while impaired or driving while intoxicated. These are usually misdemeanor crimes but can be felony charges if you had a minor in the vehicle, you caused an accident, injury or death.

There are two aspects of impaired driving charges in NJ & PA: the criminal as well as administrative. The administrative aspect has to do with your license being suspended by the Division of Motor Vehicles (PA) and the Motor Vehicle Commission (NJ).

In certain drunk driving cases there is also a 3rd element: civil penalties. This is usually in the form of a lawsuit for losses suffered due to the accident, injury, property damage or wrongful death caused by you driving while impaired.

Juvenile Crimes

Juvenile justice applies to teenagers who are not old enough to be held responsible for adult criminal acts. In Maryland, the criminal culpability age is 18-years-old. The juvenile justice system seeks to rehabilitate teens rather than punish them. Maryland counties have separate juvenile courts. The goal of each court is to stop cycles of delinquent behavior with troubled teens. If your child has been charged with a crime, contact our Media, Pennsylvania law office for a free consultation.
