Snohomish County DUI Arraignments

DUI Arraignment Hearings in Washington State

After a person is arrested for DUI in Washington, the suspect is given a date for an arraignment hearing in the courthouse. An arraignment allows a defendant to enter a guilty or not guilty plea in response to DUI charges. Deciding how to plea should be discussed with your DUI defense attorney, as either option demands different defense approaches. DUI penalties are harsh to begin with under Washington State law, but the circumstances of a DUI can heighten the severity of the penalty, such as multiple DUIs, underage DUI, DUI traffic accidents with deaths or injuries, and other factors.

The penalties for DUI can include the following:

  • Maximum 1 year of jail time with 5 years of probation
  • $5,000 fine
  • Driver’s license suspension
  • Ignition interlock device
  • Mandatory drug and alcohol treatment

Given the effect these penalties have on a person’s future, it’s vital to have a strong defense for each step of the DUI process, including the arraignment. DUIHeroes defends against all DUI charges with proven strategies and aggressive preparation—an approach that’s earned national renown for our Snohomish County DUI defense firm.
