Case #: XXXXXX7MU10A – DUI Dropped

Charge: DUI

DUI

Our client was involved in a motor vehicle accident causing damage to multiple vehicles. When police arrived, she told the officers that she had been drinking and that she felt that she was impaired. She cooperated with the investigation and provided a breath sample of .211, well above the legal limit of .08. The officers on scene arrested her and she was charged with multiple counts of DUI causing damage to property. Because her breath alcohol level was over a .150, the charges were "enhanced." With the odds stacked against her, she turned to our firm for help. The attorney for the Ticket Clinic in Fort Lauderdale found legal grounds to strike the only witness who could put our client behind the wheel. As a result, the State was forced to drop the DUI charges against our client.
