Case Summary

Date: 09/20/2024
Case #: 24*******4
Charge: DUI
DUI
Our client was out on his boat with friends when his boat was stopped for a vessel safety check. The Officer said he smelled alcohol coming from our client. The Officer then asked our client to conduct a seated battery of tasks and our client agreed to perform the tasks. The Officer later arrested our client for Boating Under the Influence (BUI). This client had 2 prior DUI's and the State wanted him to go to jail for 60 days in this case. Our client could not afford to do that — he had a job and a family, and most importantly, learned from his past mistakes and felt he did not do anything wrong in this case. Despite that, the State persisted with seeking 60 days jail so we set the case for trial. We worked on the case for months to demonstrate that our client was innocent, presenting the State with video evidence as well as evidence from the police reports tending to show that our client was not guilty of BUI. Finally, at the last court date before trial, the State conceded and dropped the Boating Under the Influence charge and our client did no additional jail time.

Case #: 23*******4 
Charge: DUI
DUI
Our client was pulled over for speeding past 2 marked police cars. She was pulled over and officers immediately suspected her of DUI. The Officers stated our client did not know where she lived and she was slurring her words. The Officers asked our client to perform Field Sobriety Tasks and she agreed. After performing the Field Sobriety Tasks, the Officers arrested our client for DUI. Frustrated, our client began acting out and resisting officers' efforts to bring her to jail. The State refused to drop the case as they believed they could prove that our client was guilty of DUI to a jury. Our client refused to take a plea, insisting that she was not DUI. We took the case to trial and vigorously cross examined officers on the video evidence, their statements, and their reports. In the end, the jury agreed with us and found our client not guilty of DUI and one count of resisting an officer without violence.

Case #: 2024-CT-******-A
Charge: DUI
DUI
While driving down the road, our client was involved in a minor car accident with a Florida Highway Patrol Trooper. Based on the Trooper’s observations, he called in a Supervisor to conduct a D.U.I. investigation. Our client was asked to perform a series of Field Sobriety Exercises and refused to do so. Our client was asked to provide a breath sample and refused to do so. Our client was arrested and charged with two (2) counts of D.U.I. Upon receipt of the evidence from the Office of the State Attorney, our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress our client’s arrest based on how he appeared on video. The alleged “indicators of impairment” were not present on video as the Troopers claimed they were on scene. Upon review of the Motion that was filed, the Office of the State Attorney agreed to reduce the charge. Our client resolved his case with no conviction, no points, and no DUI on his record.

Case #: 24******9
Charge: DUI
DUI
Our client was pulled over for speeding at 2AM in the Keys. The Officer stated he noticed an odor of alcohol and that her eyes were bloodshot, glassy, and droopy. The Officer asked our client if she had anything to drink and she admitted to drinking 2 beers. The Officer later noticed 2 16 ounce cans of Corona in the driver's seat area of our client's vehicle. The Officer asked our client to conduct Field Sobriety Exercises and she agreed. Despite performing well on the exercises, the Officer arrested our client for DUI. Our client was a professional and was devastated at the thought of what this could do to her career. We quickly began working on the case and presented arguments about why our client was not guilty of DUI. We pointed out legal issues with the manner in which the Officer conducted the investigation and presented those to the State Attorney. The State agreed and dropped the DUI case completely before the Arraignment hearing.

Case #: CT 0030XX
Charge: Driving With an Invalid License
Traffic
Our Client was charged with driving without a valid driver license.  The Client was stopped because the registered owner of the vehicle did not have a Florida driver license, not for any improper driving, The officer did not state in the probable cause affidavit if the registered owner was licensed in any other state or not.  As such, we filed a motion to suppress all evidence obtained as the result of our Client being unlawfully seized (stopped) by the officer.  Upon reviewing the motion, the prosecutor dropped the charge, as the prosecutor recognized the merits in our motion.

The Firm told the State that the case was a good case for trial and requested a dismissal.  The State refused and the case was set for trial. Once the trial was complete the jury returned a not guilty verdict in under 5 minutes!! Sent from my iPhone

Upon investigation, a Deputy made alleged observations that he believed were consistent with our client being under the influence of alcohol. After a series of Field Sobriety Exercises, our client was arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence. Upon a review of the case, our attorney noticed that the video did not match the report when it came to our client’s performance on the Field Sobriety Exercises. In fact, on video, our client did not look impaired. Our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress the evidence against our client for the DUI. Once the Motion was filed, our attorney, using the years of relationships and reputation cultivated in the County, suggested to the Prosecutor that they watch the video prior to a hearing on the Motion. Once the Prosecutor watched the video, they dismissed the DUI against our client.
