Milton, FL DUI Law Firms & Lawyers

You have the option of entering a plea deal on the DUI in court or taking the case to trial. At trial the state must prove (1) you were operating or in actual physical control of a motor vehicle (2) you had consumed alcohol or controlled substances (3) your blood alcohol was over .08 or your normal faculties were impaired.  In your case since there is no field sobriety test and no breath test it will be case of the officers opinion.  There may be a video of you taken at the scene, or at the police station. Sometimes the video is helpful for your case, or harmful. Your lawyer will review all the evidence in the case, including the police report, officers notes, video tapes, etc and then advise you whether you should take a plea deal or go to trial.  Without reviewing all the evidence in your case, it would be impossible for me to tell you what you should do.

Start by contacting your lawyer in writing asking for a refund of fees paid and explaining your reasons. Give the lawyer a reasonable amount of time to respond, and if no response, then contact the Florida Bar to file a complaint against the lawyer.
