Driving under the influence (DUI) is a serious criminal offense in the State of Florida, carrying significant legal consequences. The Law Firm of THEAMLAWYER, P.A., with its seasoned team of defense attorneys stands at the forefront of DUI criminal defense, offering comprehensive and aggressive representation to protect the rights of those accused.

What Constitutes a DUI in Florida?

In Florida, a person is charged with DUI if they are found to be driving or in actual physical control of a vehicle while their normal faculties are impaired by alcohol, chemical substances, or controlled substances, or if they have a blood alcohol level (BAL) of 0.08% or higher. This definition underscores the state's commitment to road safety and its zero-tolerance stance against impaired driving.

Potential Conviction Penalties

The penalties for a DUI conviction in Florida are stringent and can include fines, license suspension, vehicle impoundment, and even imprisonment. For instance, a first conviction can result in fines ranging from $500 to $1,000, and if the BAL was 0.15% or higher, or if a minor was in the vehicle, fines can increase to $2,000. Subsequent convictions carry harsher penalties, reflecting the state's escalating response to repeat offenders.

Prosecutorial Burden of Proof

To secure a DUI conviction, Florida prosecutors must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused was driving or in control of the vehicle while impaired or with a BAL at or above the legal limit. This high standard of proof ensures that convictions are based on compelling and reliable evidence, safeguarding the rights of the accused.

Potential Defense Strategies

Defense strategies in DUI cases may involve challenging the legality of the traffic stop, the accuracy of the BAL testing methods, or the conduct of the arresting officers. Attorneys may also explore alternative explanations for the signs of impairment or procedural errors that could impact the admissibility of evidence.
