Powerful Florida Drunk Driving Defense Lawyers

An experienced defense lawyer knows many tools that can be used to fight a DUI or DWI charge. We can challenge the Breathalyzer test by questioning the procedure used to administer the test. We may be able to also challenge the machine itself if there is evidence of poor maintenance or calibration.

If you were stopped by an officer for improper reasons, we may get your DUI charge dropped. Every stop is required to fulfill certain constitutional requirements. If you were stopped improperly, evidence against you can not be used in court. We will evaluate whether you were stopped without sufficient cause.

Aggressive Drug Crimes Defense

A drug crime in Florida carries serious punishments. We work to prevent fines or jail time by fighting your drug crime charge from the very beginning. We defend against drug possession, manufacturing, distribution or intent to sell charges.
