Why Choose Cherry Injury Law for Your DUI Defense
A DUI charge is not a conviction. The right attorney makes all the difference.
Deep Knowledge of PA DUI Law
Pennsylvania's DUI statute has three tiers based on BAC level. We know every nuance — from the general impairment threshold to the highest BAC tier — and build your defense accordingly.
We Challenge the Evidence
Field sobriety tests are subjective. Breathalyzers require proper calibration. Blood draws must follow strict protocols. We scrutinize every piece of evidence for constitutional and procedural defects.
ARD & Diversion Programs
For eligible first-time offenders, ARD can mean no conviction on your record. We guide you through the application process and advocate for your acceptance.
Time-Sensitive — Act Now
License suspension hearings have strict deadlines. Waiting even a few days can cost you your driving privileges. Contact us immediately after an arrest.

Penalty Explorer
A clearer starting point for understanding potential consequences. Not a prediction of your sentence—or a substitute for reviewing your actual charge.
Educational examples—not a sentence calculator. Consequences depend on applicable law, offense date, charges, prior history, and individual circumstances. This guide does not provide legal advice or create an attorney-client relationship.
Check the scope first
Special circumstances can make a basic chart misleading.
The date identifies an issue for legal review. This draft does not validate historical law or confirm which statutory version applies.
Choose a charge category and history
Use the charge paperwork. Do not guess what legally counts as a prior.
Complete the scope questions to unlock the chart.
If a special circumstance applies or you are unsure, the guide will recommend individual review rather than assign a penalty.
