Florida DUI Defense Attorney H. Kyle Fletcher

Every charge of DUI, DWI, or drunk driving is incredibly serious. Not only are you facing a strong legal battle, but you must also defend your reputation against the accusations. Despite the stigma these charges carry, at the H. Kyle Fletcher Law Firm, we understand that you have rights, and can provide you with a vigorous defense against even the worst DUI charges.

We understand that a DUI conviction carries consequences that can haunt you for years, such as revocation of your Florida driver’s license, a hefty fine, or a jail sentence.

Legal Repercussion: Fines

Fines for DUI offenses range from $250 to $2,000. In Florida, fines increase depending on high your blood alcohol level was at the time of the arrest, and how many previous DUI convictions are on your record.

Legal Repercussion: Community Service for First-Time DUI Offenders

If you’re convicted for DUI in the State of Florida, as a first-time offender you face a mandatory sentence of at least fifty hours of community service or a fine of $10/hour of community service required, plus up to nine months in jail.

Legal Repercussion: Jail Time for DUI Offenses

If the courts allow it, people convicted of DUIs may sometimes enter drug and alcoholism treatment programs, which count as time served. Otherwise, jail time is calculated based on how high your blood or breath alcohol level was at the time of the arrest, and how many drunk driving offenses you committed in the past.

Legal Repercussion: Vehicle Impound

Unless your personal car, truck, or SUV is your family’s only method of transportation, for a first conviction, your vehicle may be impounded for ten days, for a second conviction, 30 days, and for the third conviction, 90 days.

About the “Ten Day Rule”
Any time a person is arrested for a DUI in the state of Florida, he or she must challenge two cases. The first is a court case, which directly affects your personal freedom. The additional case is the one made against you by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.

If, in the course of your DUI arrest, you refused to submit to a Breathalyzer test, blood alcohol test, or urine test, or if you took any of these and tested above 0.07 percent BAL, you must request a special hearing within ten days in order to keep your driver’s license. If you fail to make this deadline, you will be sidelined with a minimum 6-month suspension of your Florida driver’s license.

DUI Felonies

The most serious DUI conviction involves repeat offenses and/or a motor vehicular accident with an injury or fatality. For this, defendants face up five years in prison, a maximum $5,000 fine, and a third-degree felony record.
