On April 8, 2018 our client was involved in a car accident with another driver in Orlando, Florida. The 911 call alleged that our client was under the influence of alcohol or drugs and requested law enforcement come to the scene. It was additionally alleged that our client requested the police not be called to the scene because he would then get a DUI. Our client refused to perform roadside field sobriety exercises and was placed under arrest for DUI. Once at the breath test center, our client also refused to provide a sample of his breath. After reviewing the case with the Judge and Assistant State Attorney, including errors made during the investigation and misstatements of the law by the arresting officer, the State agreed to drop the DUI charge against our client.
The Client was charged with Child Abuse after officers alleged numerous allegations of abuse that stemmed from the Child informing authorities of various levels of abuse. The Firm immediately began an investigation into the case and determined that the Child was not improperly cared for but did have several extreme mental health issues, which caused great stress for the family. The Firm was able to establish that nothing improper was occurring in the home and that the Child's mental state was such that more help was required.

Client was pulled over for a minor traffic violation. During the stop the client provided his license from Germany. The Deputy didn’t recognize the German license as valid and issued the client a notice to appear in Court. The client, from Germany, didn’t understand what to do and ignored the citation. When he didn’t appear in court a warrant was issued for his arrest. The Client was arrested for the warrant and given a $5000 bond. After bonding out of jail the client called The Ticket Clinic.

The Defendant was driving on Jog Road North of 10th Avenue where he was weaving and crossing over onto the inside lane and back to the center lane and onto the outside lane. The vehicle drove this way for 1 mile and almost collided with the raised concrete curb 4 times within a ½ mile. The officer immediately noticed a strong odor of alcoholic beverage emitting from his breath and his eyes were bloodshot red, watery and glassy. His speech was slurred and mumbled at times. When asked for his documents, he fumbled through his wallet. When asked to step out of the car, he fumbled for the door handle and was unsteady as he exited the vehicle. When he was first asked if he had been drinking, he said he had not and then later changed his story to a couple drinks.

During the alphabet task, the Defendant missed and jumbled letters the first time and did it correctly the second time. He was placed under arrest and taken to the Breath Testing Facility where he gave a breath of a .082 and .082. The Firm filed a motion to suppress all of the Defendant’s statements that he made at the Breath Testing Facility as they were made in violation of his right to remain silent. The State agreed to the motion. Additionally, the Firm convinced the State that the evidence did not establish that he was under the influence at the time of driving. Result: The State agreed and dropped the DUI charge on the day of trial.
The Client was stopped by law enforcement for striking the median. Once stopped law enforcement noticed signs of impairment and asked the Client to perform roadside sobriety exercises. The Client performed poorly on said exercises and was subsequently arrested for DUI. Once arrested she was transported to the Breath Alcohol Testing facility where she gave a breath sample almost twice the legal limit. The Firm investigated the case and determined that the Client was elderly and thus the exercises were not designed for people of her age to determine impairment. This fact, in addition to the fact that the Client had a completely clean criminal record, led the State to agree to the dismiss the DUI charge.

There were no motion issues with this case, however the state was receptive to mitigation. We collected documentation from our client which indicated that his father's funeral was earlier that day. As a result of this traumatic incident, the client made a poor decision that was out of character and he accepted full responsibility for his actions. His lack of prior record, coupled with the fact that he is a recent college graduate with gainful employment allowed us to argue that his risk to re-offend was low. In addition, the client provided our office with a copy of his employee handbook which stated that his employment could be terminated based on a dui conviction. In light of the above-mentioned info, the State agreed to dismiss the DUI and in turn offered the reckless with no conviction on his record.
