We thoroughly examine every aspect of your case, from the legality of the traffic stop to the accuracy of breathalyzer tests. By identifying procedural errors, disputing unreliable evidence, and negotiating alternative penalties like probation or reduced charges, we work to prevent jail time and protect your license from suspension. Our detailed defense strategy is designed to achieve the best outcome for your specific situation.
This charge can result in fines, license suspension, and mandatory classes. We focus on reducing penalties and safeguarding your future.
Repeated DUI charges come with harsher penalties. We are experienced in minimizing these consequences and securing opportunities for reduced sentences.
Florida’s zero-tolerance policy makes underage DUI a serious offense. We are committed to protecting young drivers’ rights and helping them avoid penalties.
Charges with aggravating factors like a high BAC or minor passenger carry severe penalties. We confront these issues directly to mitigate the consequences.
This severe charge demands a strategic defense. We focus on reducing the life-altering consequences of DUI manslaughter with a dedicated approach.
Fines: For a first DUI offense, fines can range from $500 to $1,000, but increase with repeat offenses or aggravated circumstances.
License Suspension: A first DUI offense can result in up to a year of license suspension, with longer suspensions for multiple offenses.
Imprisonment: Jail time can range from up to six months for a first offense to years of incarceration for aggravated or repeat offenses.
Ignition Interlock Device: You may be required to install a device in your vehicle that prevents it from starting if alcohol is detected on your breath.
DUI Classes: Mandatory completion of DUI education programs and possible community service requirements.
These penalties can have a profound effect on your personal and professional life. However, with a strategic defense in place, we work tirelessly to mitigate the consequences, aiming for reduced charges, minimized penalties, or case dismissal.
At LaMaida Law, we leave no detail unexplored when defending DUI cases. Our goal is to dismantle the prosecution's case piece by piece, exposing errors and securing the best possible outcome for you.
We begin with a detailed analysis of every aspect of your DUI charge. From reviewing the police report to examining field sobriety tests and breathalyzer results, we look for inconsistencies, improper procedures, or violations of your rights.
We challenge the evidence against you, questioning the accuracy of breathalyzer results, the legality of the traffic stop, and the administration of field sobriety tests. Our aim is to suppress unreliable evidence and weaken the prosecution's case.
No two DUI cases are the same, which is why we develop a customized defense strategy based on the specific circumstances of your case. Whether we negotiate for reduced charges or prepare for trial, our strategy is designed to achieve the best possible result for you.
We employ a range of defense strategies to challenge DUI charges, including:
Improper Traffic Stop: Proving that the police had no valid reason to pull you over, which can lead to a dismissal of your case.
Inaccurate Breathalyzer or Blood Test Results: Questioning the accuracy of the testing equipment or whether it was properly calibrated and maintained.
Improper Administration of Field Sobriety Tests: Showing that the sobriety tests were not administered in compliance with legal standards, which can cast doubt on the validity of the results.
Medical Conditions: Demonstrating that a medical condition or medication impacted the breathalyzer or field sobriety test results.
In Florida, the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit is 0.08%. However, for drivers under 21, the limit is 0.02%. Commercial drivers have a lower limit of 0.04%.
Yes, you can refuse a breathalyzer test, but doing so can result in an automatic license suspension of up to 18 months and could be used against you in court. We can help you navigate the consequences of a refusal and build a strong defense.
Penalties for a first-time DUI in Florida can include fines between $500 and $1,000, up to 6 months in jail, a license suspension of up to 1 year, and mandatory completion of DUI education classes. Our goal is to minimize or eliminate these penalties with a solid defense strategy.
If you are arrested for a DUI, your license may be suspended. However, we can request a hearing to challenge the suspension and potentially restore your driving privileges.
