Orlando DUI Attorney

If you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol in Orlando (as well as the greater Florida area) you should retain the services of an experienced Orlando DUI lawyer to:

  • Learn more about your legal rights
  • Get through the legal process efficiently
  • Ensure the best possible representation in all legal proceedings (Although everyone accused of a DUI is assigned a public defender, these civil servants tend to be overburdened and, as a result, typically can't spend sufficient time on each case they receive)

Florida DUI Sentences

While our attorneys make every effort to get DUI charges reduced or dropped entirely, in some cases, clients are convicted of the crime and may receive a range of punishments in their sentence. Should a case reach the sentencing phase, we will aggressively work to get our clients minimal sentences.

The precise sentence issued will depend on:

  • Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) at the time of the incident (To be arrested for DUI in Florida, BAC has to be 0.08 or higher. BACs over 2.0 generally receive harsher sentences than lower BACs.)
  • Whether the individual has a criminal record, especially prior DUI convictions
  • Whether the individual had a valid Florida license at the time of the incident
  • Whether property was damaged or people were injured (or killed) in the event (The more extensive and severe the damage/injuries, the more severe the sentences doled out.)

When convictions occur, possible elements of the sentence may include any combination of:

  • community service
  • court fines and restitution feels
  • jail time
  • work furlough
  • probation
  • license suspension
  • state-run alcohol and drug education classes (which can be costly to enroll in)
