Arrested for DUI in Indian River County, Vero Beach, Sebastian, Indian River Shores, Fellesmere, St. Lucie County, Fort Pierce, or Port Saint Lucie?

An arrest for Driving Under The Influence, or as it called in other states, Driving While Intoxicated or Driving While Impaired, can be a intimidating , freighting, and humiliating experience.

If you have been arrested for DUI you must act fast. The Florida Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles will automatically suspend your Florida Drivers License unless you request a formal review hearing within ten (10) days of the date of the arrest.

This action by the Florida Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles is only half of the process. After your arrest you will be required to be processed through the criminal justice system in Florida. Most matters will not be considered a Felony and will be heard in the County Court in the County of the arrest.

It is of vital importance that both venues (The Florida Department of Highway Safety and the Florida Court Systems) be addressed at the same time.

It is important to realize that there are numerous defenses that could result in a dismissal of the charges against you, including challenges to the police stop, the equipment, and the procedures.

There are serious consequences for a conviction for DUI which can include the suspension of your drivers license, jail time, fines, having to install an interlocking device on your car, impoundment of your automobile and probation.
