Helpful DUI Information
It is important to remember that a DUI charge is just that: a charge. It is not a conviction.

Will I go to jail for a DUI?
On a first offense, probably not. On second or later offenses, jail time becomes more probable. There are mandatory minimum jail sentences for repeat offenders, or if someone if injured or killed. We have handled all scenarios and can assess these cases for you.
If convicted, how long will the DUI remain on my driving record? How about the criminal record?
It will remain on both records forever.
Why is your license taken after your arrest for a DUI, and when do you get it back?
Under Florida law, your license can be immediately administratively suspended for either a refusal to take a breath, blood, or urine test, or if you have a breath test result of .08 or greater. The length of this suspension can be from six (6) months to eighteen (18) months. If we are successful and win your DMV administrative hearing, you will be able to continue your normal driving.
Does the DMV administrative hearing have any bearing on the criminal hearing?
No. They are two independent proceedings. The administrative or motor vehicle hearing is separate and apart from applying for a business permit. The only way to eliminate this driver's license suspension from your record is through an administrative hearing.
If you are successful and win your administrative hearing, not only will you be able to continue normal driving, but your suspension will be removed from your driving history.
Are points on my driver’s license automatically assessed if I get a traffic citation?
No, you must first be adjudicated guilty, and this is something we will strive to avoid.
I work and it will be hard for me to go to court. Can you handle this for me?
We know you have a busy schedule, and let’s face it, court can be stressful. We will do everything we can to make this as easy for you as possible, and we will attend court for you as much as we can.
