Boca Raton DUI Lawyer
Defense for Boca Raton DUI (Driving Under the Influence) Charges
Driving under the influence (DUI) is a criminal offense that is committed whenever a person chooses to drink alcohol or take narcotics prior to driving. In the state of Florida, it is also a criminal offense that is committed anytime a person drives with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher.
All too often, people make the mistake of assuming that driving under the influence is not a major crime when in fact DUI is a very serious criminal offense. Most people do not realize that if they are found guilty of DUI, they may be sentenced with jail time, fines, community service and probation - and that is just for a first time offense. Additionally, people who have been charged with DUI may lose their right to drive in the state of Florida for a set period of time or indefinitely. With the consequences being so harsh, people should never think that they will get off lightly after they have been charged with DUI.
Hiring a DUI Defense Attorney
Once people have been stopped for suspicion of DUI, law enforcement will begin building their cases against them. From breath test results to field sobriety tests, law enforcement will compile a vast amount of evidence to prove that people were drunk driving. Gathered evidence will then be used against people during the criminal process by prosecutors who are eager to obtain convictions.
With police officers and prosecutors being so aggressive, it is imperative that people protect themselves during the legal process and hire defense attorneys who have extensive DUI case experience, like the lawyers at our firm.
