DUI Penalties

Have you been charged with DUI? Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can lead to serious consequences, depending on the aggravating factors involved in the situation.

With over twenty years of experience in criminal defense law, a Sarasota criminal lawyer could help you get your charges reduced or your case completely dismissed.

If you or a family member is facing a DUI charge, it is important to be aware of the possible penalties that could result from a conviction. According to the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, fines range from $500 to $2,000, depending on whether it was a first DUI or multiple DUI offense. Community service of fifty hours is also mandatory after even a first conviction. Probation for up to one year may be a part of the sentence. Jail or prison time will change depending on the circumstances, but it can range from 6 months in jail to 10 years in prison. The offender's vehicle may be impounded and driving privileges may be revoked.

    Scott is such a great guy ! His love for his clients is genuine and with that being said he is an amazing fighter as well ! The prosecutor was trying to give me 9 month's and Scott would not accept that deal ! He kept fighting and pushing for a better deal and he got four month's knocked off and also got me ann extra month of time served credit towards my Sarasota case , He was also nice enough to drive an hour away to represent me in my Port Charlotte case as well , Another important thing that i want to mention is that when you call him he will call you back that same day that means alot to not only me but my family who was worried about my situation , Alot of these attorneys do not do that because all they cared about was getting your money , If you need a great attorney give Scott a call and have him represent you ! You will not regret it !
