DUI Driver's License Suspensions
 

If you are arrested for suspicion of DUI in the state of Florida, and you blow greater than 0.08 on the breathalyzer, or you refuse to take a breathalyzer, (or urine or blood test if requested) your privilege to drive will be suspended or revoked.  There are two types of suspension:

- An administrative suspension known as a DHSMV Administrative Suspension, and

- A Criminal Suspension

IMPORTANT! - You have 10 days from the date of your arrest to appeal the DHSMV Administrative Suspension.  During those 10 days, you may drive for Business Purposes Only with the ticket you received, until midnight on the 10th day from the date of your arrest.  Keep the ticket with you.

Questions I Will Answer At Your Consultation:

 

-   What defenses do I have?

 

-   What are my options?

 

-   I’m a first time offender, what am I looking at?

-   Will I go to jail?

 

-   What effect will this have on my record, my employment, or my driver’s license?

 


Should You Hire a Lawyer or Bond Out First?

 

Hire the lawyer first.  He might be able to get your bond lowered and he is much more important to you in the case than the bondsman is.

 

Save the bond money for your attorney.  Your attorney does not want to leave you in jail.  Your attorney will be there to help you seek a lower bond, and then to advocate and fight for your innocence and freedom.  If you do get convicted, only your attorney will be there to fight for a lower sentence.  Only your attorney will listen to your side of the story and present it in your defense in court.

 

And you won’t be able to afford an attorney if you spend all or most of your money on the bondsman.
