You might be facing a felony with state prison ramifications. If a DUI results in an injury, even a minor injury, the District Attorney can proceed as a felony which means state prison.
YOU NEED AN ATTORNEY RIGHT AWAY

Felony charges could be filed on injury claims. Get an experienced attorney and do not speak to authorities. You only have 10 days to file your appeal of the automatice DMV license suspension.
