Criminal Defense Lawyers for DUI Cases in Jacksonville, Florida

Have you been arrested for a DUI in or around the Jacksonville area? Our criminal defense law firm is a DUI firm which handles all types of DUI cases, including DUI defense, DUI stops, DUI arrests, DUI accidents with or without injury, and DMV Hearings related to DUI license suspensions. Whatever the circumstances of your DUI, whether drunk driving or driving while impaired from drugs, a Jacksonville DUI attorney at our firm can provide you with capable and thorough representation, challenging the evidence against you and exhausting all legal strategies on your behalf.

Florida DUI Cases

If you have been arrested for a DUI, you need to seek the advice of an attorney immediately. You have only 10 days from the date of your arrest to request a DMV hearing to avoid an automatic license suspension. If a DMV hearing is not requested during that time, you will lose your right to one and your license will be suspended.

As part of your representation on a DUI case, a Jacksonville DUI lawyer from The Williston Firm will request a DMV hearing on your behalf and will represent you at the hearing. At that hearing, the DMV hearing office will hear testimony and determine if your license will be suspended while your DUI charges are still pending. 

During your initial consultation with your Jacksonville DUI attorney, this process will be explained to you and we will answer any questions you may have regarding your case and the status of your driver's license.

DUI Consequences

Because of the consequences you may be facing in any DUI, it is vital that you retain a defense attorney familiar with DUI cases. A first-time DUI conviction may result in:  fines between $250 and $1000, possible jail time of 6 to 9 months, a license suspension of 180 days to 1 year, mandatory completion of DUI school, up to 1 year of probation, and 50 hours of community service. Repeat offenders are subject to even harsher penalties.
