An aggravated DUI isn’t just a more severe version of a regular DUI. In Arizona, it’s a felony and can be charged under several circumstances:
● You were driving on a suspended, revoked, or restricted license
● This is your third DUI in 7 years
● There was a minor under 15 in the vehicle
● You were required to have an ignition interlock and didn’t
● You were driving the wrong way on a highway
Each situation elevates a standard DUI to a felony, triggering harsher penalties, including prison time, losing your license, and long-term effects on your livelihood. These kinds of charges on a record can lead to difficulty finding employment, housing, and other necessities.
If you’ve been charged or are under investigation for an aggravated DUI, time is the most critical factor. Waiting can lead to the worst possible outcome, and that’s why Hector Diaz doesn’t wait.

Aggravated DUI charges are serious, not just because of the felony label, but because of the life-altering penalties they bring. These cases often involve intense legal challenges that demand a thoughtful, layered approach to shape your defense correctly.
These challenges often involve:
● Overlapping charges that can elevate your case to a more serious felony category
● Complicated evidence like BAC levels, blood test inconsistencies, or video footage
● Collateral consequences affecting employment, immigration status, and family life
● Courtroom nuances that require experience navigating local prosecutors, judges, and sentencing patterns
Each of these adds layers of complexity to your case.
"These aren’t just charges. They’re defining moments that can shape your future."
No matter which attorney you choose, the defense strategy behind your case is what truly makes the difference. Why?
● Details Win Cases: Was the stop legal? Was the testing accurate? Were your rights violated? All of this matters in the final decision that awaits you in court.
● Speed Matters: The faster your attorney starts building your defense, the more control you’ll have over the outcome.
● Strategy is Everything: A tailored defense can mean the difference between prison time and a second chance.
