First-time DUI offenders and those offenders that cooperated with police officials can usually easily have their jail sentences suspended for the at least part of the time in return for a probationary period which can last up to 2 years.

If you have already had a DUI, it is very important that you hire an attorney as quickly as possible as your punishment will increase with each DUI. A second DUI conviction will result in a sentence of at least 96 hours of jail time just in order to qualify for probation. If there was a minor in the car or an accident with a death or injury, you may be sentenced to time in prison.
