What would the most likely outcome be for being charged with a DUI which resulted in the death of someone?

Answered by attorney Harley Ives Gutin
DUI/DWI lawyer at Gutin Wolverton
If you were found guilty you would be sentenced to a substantial time in prison (10-15 years). You need to retain a good attorney.

DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Office of Andrew Gable
Sounds like you have some potential defenses for trial. You should not post anything else about you case on the internet and should contact a lawyer.

Is it possible to get a reduced charge for a DWI if I was not caught driving?

Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
The honest answer is that no attorney can predict the outcome, nor even give an intelligent opinion, without reviewing and knowing all the charges, evidence, police reports, expected testimony, priors history, etc. However: The facts and solid proof you already concede: your car will shows damage; the witness can ID you in court as the observed driver; your BA was tested at .19, which is three times the legal limit, which frequently results in enhanced penalties, not reduced charges; you fled the scene of an accident, so I wouldn't be surprised if the DA filed that additional charge. You need good counsel to try to stay out of jail. When arrested or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a test, search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. While this isn't a 'capital case', you certainly face fines and potential jail, so handle it right. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate. A little free advice: When arrested for DUI, whether alcohol or drugs, then upon release from jail or booking the defendant is given documents that include a notice that you have only ten days to file a request with DMV for a hearing on an appeal of the automatic suspension of your license imposed by DMV upon your arrest. That is separate and runs consecutively with any suspension that may be imposed by the DMV, or the court upon conviction. Contact DMV and do so, timely, then appear at your scheduled DMV appeal hearing and present any supporting evidence and testimony. If you do not win the appeal, you can still apply later for a restricted license for to/from work and school, etc., after serving at least of the full suspension period. If you don't know how to do these things effectively, then hire an attorney that does.
