Defending a DUI in Florida

A Driving Under the Influence (DUI) offense in the State of Florida is subject to a bevy of intricate laws and penalties. Phillip Menditto is an experienced, knowledgeable criminal lawyer that can help you effectively navigate the criminal justice system, resulting in the best possible outcome.

Effective representation can significantly affect the outcome of a DUI case.  In the State of Florida, a DUI can be categorized as a traffic violation, a misdemeanor, or a felony depending on the circumstances. Without adequate representation offenders can receive large fines, be required to attend a substance abuse course or DUI classes, be put on probation, and even face up to six months in prison.

In addition to the criminal portion of the case, there are administrative functions which, if not handled properly, can result in the immediate revocation of the offender’s driver’s license before the settlement of the criminal portion of the case.  In order to avoid immediate license suspension and receive a temporary driver’s permit, a request for a Formal Review Hearing must be properly filed within 10 days of the offense.  

In order to secure the best possible outcome for a DUI offense, contact Phillip Menditto immediately after the arrest.  With his experience and knowledge, Phillip Menditto can help you navigate the laws surrounding DUI’s in the State of Florida.
