If you are charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI) for the third time in South Carolina, the penalties are progressively higher than for previous offenses.  Bernstein and Bernstein can provide the informed representation you need in court to minimize the consequences.

A third DUI conviction in South Carolina is punishable by:

and

• imprisonment for at least 60 days or up to 3 years

In addition, the court may also:

• require the installation, at your expense, of an ignition interlock device designed to prevent the operation of the motor vehicle if the operator has consumed alcoholic beverages
