FLORIDA DUI ATTORNEY

CHOOSING A FLORIDA DUI ATTORNEY

There are many ways to find and select a DUI Attorney. I am positive that shortly after your DUI arrest your mailbox was overflowing with letters, postcards, and booklets from DUI Lawyers offering you their service. All of these mailings  had the red colored "Advertisement" stamped on the outside. You might have even had friends, relatives, or coworkers suggest this lawyer or that lawyer. 

How do you find, interview, and choose the Attorney to use to fight your DUI charge? I have written this to try and help you, the consumer. It is my philosophy that a well informed consumer is the best consumer. It prevents unrealistic expectations and allows open and frank conversation between client and attorney, which is perhaps the most important part of any representation. I write this as a practicing Florida attorney, and yes a part of my practice involves representing people accused of Drunk Driving. However, this is not a sales pitch or a request to call me now. I am not offering a free consultation (all DUI lawyers offer this) nor am I going to brag about my Law Firm's combined years of experience, or about my victories, these techniques will be discussed later. I do not believe that my phone number, address, or any means of promoting my services are listed within this site. I am writing this as my opinion, and I hope that it helps you make an educated decision.
