If a person is convicted of DUI in Florida, they face a variety of severe legal punishments such as imprisonment, monetary fines, probation, and DUI School. Additionally, a DUI conviction can result in an ignition interlock device being placed on the offender's vehicle and automatic driver's license suspension. While the offender may fight the terms of his/her license suspension, he/she must comply with certain time regulations and driving restrictions first.
In Florida, a DUI offender must schedule a hearing with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) within 10 days of his/her arrest to avoid automatic suspension of his/her driver's license. Failure to schedule a hearing will result in the automatic suspension of his/her license.
There is only way to defend against DUI charges in Florida. You need a skilled attorney who knows that an all-out frontal attack on the prosecution's case is the only way to get the best possible outcome. The police take DUI charges seriously and often neglect your rights when they are pulling you over, administering the breath tests, and pressing their case against you.
At the Law Offices of Bryant A. Scriven, P.A. , we have the experience to investigate and challenge every part of your DUI charge. We first look at whether the police had reasonable cause to suspect DUI or to stop your car. If there was not reasonable suspicion, you charges can be dismissed, or reduced to a moving violation. We also investigate the police behavior during the stop. Did the police explain the reason for the stop? Did you clearly understand your rights? In addition, we challenge the field sobriety test and breath analyzer results. We prepare your case to win.
