Florida DUI Lawyer

A driver who is in command of an auto and has a blood alcohol level above .08 may be arrested under Florida DUI law. Many would presume that a person would need to be driving the vehicle in order to violate the DUI law; however, that is not the case.

If the driver has previous DUI convictions he will be required to complete the Level 2 course. The Level 2 course requires the driver to spend at least 21 hours of classroom time in an approved educational facility.

Under Florida DUI law, the court may require a person convicted of a DUI to install an ignition interlock device in their vehicle. The ignition interlock device is similar to the breathalyzer test used by police officers.

Very often in Third Degree Felony DUI arrests the prosecutor will try to plea bargain with the driver in order to avoid a long drawn out trial. Drivers not knowledgeable of Florida DUI Law may be taken advantage of and be forced into compromises against their interest. An aggressive and experienced Tampa DUI Lawyer can help offset the imbalance of power and negotiate a settlement that is more favorable to the defendant.
