A Port St. Lucie Police Officer pulled over the defendant while she was driving a moped. The officer claimed the reason for the traffic stop was that the defendant was in violation of Florida law for not wearing protective eye wear. During the traffic stop, the officer began to suspect that the defendant impaired by alcohol. The defendant submitted to the officer’s requests for her to perform field sobriety tasks. The officer claimed that she performed the tasks poorly and therefore charged her with DUI. Our legal team brought forth a legal motion after it was determined the officer did not make a lawful stop. The law requiring persons to wear eye protection applies only to “motorcycles.” However, the defendant was driving a moped that was powered by an engine less than what is defined as a “motorcycle”; therefore the law did not require her to wear protective eye wear. The DUI charge was dismissed.
The Defendant was stopped for swerving all over the road and almost causing a collision. Once stopped the Officer believed he saw indicators of impairment and had the Client perform roadside sobriety exercises, which the Client performed poorly on according to the Officer. Once arrested for DUI the Client was transported to the jail and a breath test was requested. The Client allegedly complied and it resulted in a breath sample more than twice the legal limit. Because there was no video of any part of the investigation, the whole case rested upon law enforcement's good word. However, once the Firm began investigating the case it was discovered that the Officer, that was alleged to have given the breath sample, had no memory of the sample or of the Client. The Firm immediately filed a motion to suppress the breath sample. The State refused to concede the motion and drop the case. The Firm argued the motion and won the motion. The State requested a rehearing on the motion, but before the motion was re-argued the State dismissed the DUI.
The client was driving a car that had no motor vehicle registration and was caught by the police, and charged with a criminal offense. The Ticket Clinic Attorneys negotiated with the Office of the State Attorney resulting in all criminal charges being dismissed.
Client was arrested after they were pulled over for speeding, because they were a foreign national visiting the United States and did not have a driver license from their home country or Florida. The client then missed their first court date and a warrant was issued for their arrest. The Ticket Clinic Attorneys were able to have the Judge recall the warrant without the client being arrested again, and negotiated with the State Attorney and the State agreed to drop the criminal charge.
The Client was found asleep at an intersection and the Officer observed signs of impairment. The Client would not do roadside exercises and refused to submit to a breath sample. The Firm investigated the case and discovered there was simply not enough evidence to convict the Client of DUI. The State looked into the matter and concluded the same. The State dismissed all charges in the case.

The Client was stopped for failing to maintain a single lane. The Officer believed the Client was impaired and had him submit to sobriety exercises. The Client stated he had only had one glass of wine. The Officer then arrested the Client for DUI and took him to jail where he refused to give a breath sample. The Firm investigated the case, and while it was shown that the stop of the Client was proper, there was not very much evidence to show impairment considering the Client refused to give a breath sample. In addition, there was a language barrier for the Client which could have further complicated matters, mistaking confusion for impairment. The State agreed and dismissed the DUI.
Our client was pulled over by undercover officers who were conducting surveillance on a suspected drug dealer. After allegedly observing a hand-to-hand transaction, our client was found to be in possession of 100 Xanax pills. Our client was charged with possession with intent to deliver. He was facing a MANDATORY 2 year prison sentence. Ticket Clinic lawyers filed a motion with the court and presented evidence that was positive for our client's case. After hearing our motion, the Judge decided to sentence our client to only probation, avoiding the mandatory prison sentence.
Our client was stopped for driving too slowly by the Miramar Police Department. Officers claimed that our client smelled strongly of cologne and alleged that he was attempting to cover up the
smell of alcohol. The Miramar officers conducted a DUI investigation, arrested our client and requested that he provide a breath sample. Our client refused. Before trial, the prosecutors offered to reduce the charges but our client was confident in his innocence and demanded a trial. After two days of trial, the jury found him Not Guilty.
Law enforcement stopped the Client's vehicle as a result of the Client swerving within his own lane and hitting the solid white lane line. Once stopped the Officer observed signs of impairment by alcohol and had the Client submit to roadside exercises. The Client agreed but did poorly on said exercises. The Client was arrested for DUI and once at the jail submitted to a breath sample that was almost twice the legal limit. The Firm began looking into the case and found that the stop by law enforcement could be considered weak. In addition, the Client had no prior criminal history and was extremely cooperative with the Officers that stopped him. Based on these factors the State agreed to dismiss the DUI charge.
A stop was conducted on our client's vehicle for traveling 70 mph in a 50 mph zone. The Deputy observed an odor of alcoholic beverage coming from the driver and observed signs of impairment. A DUI investigator was called to the scene. The DUI Deputy requested the Defendant perform field sobriety exercises, which the Defendant agreed to do. During the exercises, multiple indicators of impairment were observed and the Defendant was arrested for DUI. The Defendant refused to submit to a breath test after being arrested. The Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles issued a 12 month suspension of the Defendant's license based on the refusal.
Results: The firm filed a formal review request with the DHSMV and after the review hearing, the 12 month suspension was set aside based on insufficient evidence to support the suspension.
Officers discovered the Client's vehicle sitting at a green light for a period of time that required other vehicles to go around him. Law enforcement made a traffic stop because the Client was obstructing traffic. As a result they discovered that the Client smelled of alcohol and they then observed marijuana in the car within plain view. The Officer asked the Client to submit to sobriety exercises, which he refused to do. After refusing to do said exercises, the Client was arrested and taken to jail where he refused to give a breath sample. The Firm argued to the State that they may have evidence of marijuana, but no real evidence of DUI. The State eventually agreed and dismissed the DUI charge completely. In addition, the State agreed not to convict the Client on the Marijuana count, which saved the Client's license.
