DUI Charges
At the time of the accident there were no injuries so the charge was Dui w/ property damage. My question is, now that they are claiming injury, can the charges be changed to Dui w/ personal injury?

Re: DUI Charges
Yes. you could be arrested on one charge and ultimately prosecuted on another or additional charge.
Re: DUI Charges
Unfortunately, yes, the State can probably do that. Of course, any evidence that there were no claimed injuries at the time of the accident is a defense to the charge.
If you do not already have one, you need to retain an experienced criminal defense attorney. If you cannot afford one, you may qualify for the public defender.
If you have any additional questions, please contact me.
Re: DUI Charges
the state can amend the charges, but they must show that the injuries were a result of the accident. if you would like to discuss your case any further, feel free to give me a call. All My Best, Joe Vredevelt miamiduilawyer 305.670.3119..
