Brevard County DUI Defense Lawyers

A DUI Can Have a Variety of Serious Consequences

Being pulled over by the police for drunk driving can be a devastating experience. If your blood alcohol level is above the legal limit of 0.08, your license may be revoked by the Department of Motor Vehicles in addition to any criminal charges filed against you. Losing a driver’s license is a serious loss of freedom in Florida, where there is no reliable mass transit system.

Beyond the serious consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and the stigma of being known as a drunk driver, you may face other criminal charges. If you were driving with a suspended license or while on probation for DUI (also known as DWI in other jurisdictions), additional counts against you may be filed. Additionally, you should be aware that if you are on probation, a DUI will violate your probation and you would face the consequences of that violation of probation. The penalties for DUI increase each time you are convicted. For example, a first time offender may be fined as little as $250 and face only six months in jail. However, a second offense has harsher penalties, and a fourth conviction is a felony DUI. If someone was injured due to your drunk driving, you could be charged with DUI with serious bodily injury, or worse, if it was a fatal accident, you could face a DUI manslaughter charge, a felony in which you could face jail time.
