DUI / DWI
DUI charges in Florida happen frequently and can happen to almost anyone who drinks any alcohol and drives. A DUI is an extremely subjective, opinionated charge, which places heavy weight on the officer’s opinion. This can result in a person, who had 1 or 2 drinks while out to dinner, getting arrested for DUI, based on 1 officer’s opinion. When you couple the subjective opinions of a DUI, the complex legal nature of a DUI, and the potential impact that a DUI would have on someone’s life, having an experienced attorney retained quickly is extremely important.
If arrested and you either refuse to take the breath test or blow over .08, the DMV will administratively suspend your driver’s license. This suspension does allow you the ability to challenge that suspension, but it must be done within 10 days.
In addition to the 10 day time constraint to challenge the DMV suspension, you will also be scheduled for an Arraignment. If you plead guilty or no contest to the DUI charge, you will be convicted, placed on probation and given a long list of mandatory requirements, even if you have never been arrested before. Do not go Court alone and plead Guilty or No Contest without consulting with an experienced lawyer, as there may be ways to get the charge dismissed or reduced.
