Arizona Aggravated DUI Attorney
What Elevates a DUI to an Aggravated Charge in Arizona
An Aggravated DUI is one of the most serious impaired-driving offenses in Arizona. Unlike a standard or Extreme DUI, this charge applies when additional circumstances increase the severity—such as driving with a suspended license, having multiple DUI convictions within a set timeframe, or having a child under 15 in the vehicle. Because of these added factors, penalties can include mandatory prison time, extended license loss, significant fines, and long-term impacts on your daily life.
Many people are caught off guard when a routine traffic stop leads to such a serious accusation. Andy Rojas understands how quickly these situations escalate and helps you understand why the charge is considered aggravated, what the law requires, and what steps you can take to protect yourself moving forward.

Investigating the Circumstances Behind the Arrest
Aggravated DUI cases often involve more complex legal and situational elements, making a thorough review essential for an effective defense strategy. Andy takes the time to look closely at the specific factor that heightened your DUI charge—whether it involved prior offenses, the issue of a suspended license, a requirement for ignition-interlock devices, or even the unsettling presence of a minor in the vehicle at the time of the offense. Each of these aggravating circumstances can significantly influence the severity of the case and the potential consequences for the accused. Beyond just these aggravating elements, Andy also carefully evaluates the foundational aspects of the case: the legality of the stop itself, the actions taken by the officer during the encounter, and the accuracy and reliability of any breath, blood, or field sobriety tests administered.
Errors can occur at many different stages of this process, ranging from misunderstandings about a driver’s license status and improper administration of tests to mishandled samples or critical equipment failures. Andy works diligently to piece together the full picture of your arrest experience, identifying any problems that may undermine the strength of the charges against you or uncovering potential opportunities to mitigate penalties. His thorough approach helps ensure that every detail is considered, as even minor oversights can have significant implications for the outcome of your case.
