One moment you were driving through downtown Orlando or cruising past Winter Park, and the next you were pulled over, questioned, and cuffed. That moment—those flashing lights, those tests on the side of the road, the backseat of a squad car—is still replaying in your head.
Now you’re trying to process what comes next. Will you lose your license? Will this ruin your job prospects? What’s going to happen in court? Whether this is your first arrest or a repeat incident, the questions keep piling up—and the stress doesn’t let go.
Orlando Is One of Florida’s Most Aggressive DUI Zones
The Orlando metro area, including Orange County and surrounding Central Florida communities like Sanford, Kissimmee, Altamonte Springs, and Apopka, has become a serious DUI enforcement hub. The numbers show it: in 2024, Orange County recorded thousands of DUI arrests—Orlando Police, Florida Highway Patrol, and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office don’t hold back.
What does that mean for you? It means your case will most likely go through the Orange County Courthouse on Orange Avenue—a courthouse where prosecutors are sharp, judges are strict, and the system doesn’t have much patience for mistakes or stalling.
Florida Law Hits Hard—Even for First-Time DUI Offenders
If you’re charged with DUI under Florida Statute §316.193, the penalties are serious:
- Up to 6 months in jail
- Fines from $500 to $1,000
- License suspension for 6–12 months
- DUI school and probation
- Mandatory community service
- Vehicle impoundment
And if your BAC was over .15, or there was a child in the vehicle? Things get even worse: mandatory ignition interlock devices, higher fines, longer jail time. And yes, you’ll be walking into court with a criminal charge on your record. That never looks good to employers, landlords, or insurance companies.
The DMV Is Already Taking Action—And You’ve Only Got 10 Days to Respond
As if criminal charges weren’t enough, the Florida DHSMV begins proceedings to suspend your driver’s license the moment you’re arrested. You only have 10 calendar days to request a formal review hearing. Ten days—and that includes weekends and holidays.
If you miss the deadline, your license gets suspended, regardless of the outcome of your court case. That’s why getting a DUI lawyer in Orlando fast isn’t just smart—it’s essential.
