The Client was visiting a local area bar and was observed leaving said establishment having difficulty walking. Employees of the bar informed law enforcement that they believed the Client was impaired. The Client then entered his vehicle and attempted to leave the parking lot. The Officer stopped the Client by flagging him down. Once stopped the Officer then detained him for a DUI investigation. During the DUI investigation the Client performed poorly on the sobriety exercises, and was then transported to the Palm Beach County Jail, where he gave a breath sample that was more than twice the legal limit of .08. The Firm was retained to help and discussed the case with the Assistant State Attorney. The Firm addressed the issue of the way the Client was stopped and also the fact that the Client had an impeccably clean criminal history. The State then agreed to dismiss the DUI charge.
