As a Florida Barred DUI and Criminal Defense Attorney, my goal is to help you navigate
Florida’s complex criminal system as it pertains to your DUI or Criminal charge.
1. FIRST------ WHAT IS A DUI? A DUI is a criminal offense that involves
a person, operating or in actual physical control, of a motor vehicle, while under the
influence.
For someone who DOES NOT hold a commercial driver’s license, this occurs when:
their normal faculties are impaired-- AND the person has a Blood Alcohol Content of
.08 or above.
While many people assume a DUI is “drunk driving,” being under the influence for
DUI purposes, may actually involve substances OTHER than alcohol, such as chemical substances
and drugs, including- “street” drugs, prescription drugs and those purchased over-the-counter.

At least 50 hours community service;
A 2nd DUI Offense can result in a: Fine up to $2000
