Phoenix Reckless Endangerment Lawyers
Accidents or pullovers involving a charge of DUI or aggravated assault can carry a separate felony charge of endangerment. Typically, endangerment involves actions that show a disregard for the safety and well-being of others. At the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart our criminal defense attorneys defend and represent people charged with reckless endangerment. While we have the investigative and forensic resources necessary to challenge the case against you in court, we are also skilled negotiators who effectively work with prosecutors in reducing or dismissing charges.

What a Charge of Endangerment Could Mean
If an arresting officer believes your driving behavior posed a risk of serious injury or death to others, complicated by DUI or drug use, you could face up to 3 years in prison. Additionally, unless the charge against you is dropped or reduced, your insurance premiums will likely increase as well. Depending on the nature of the case against you, a judge may consider suspending your license or requiring you to attend a driver education program.
As your endangerment defense attorneys, we evaluate the strength of the case against you, seeking a reduction or dismissal of charges when possible. If your case heads to trial, we work with investigators and forensic experts in challenging the prosecution’s evidence and testimony against you.
