THE PENALTIES FOR A DUI ARREST AND CONVICTION ARE VERY SERIOUS.
Drunk driving or DUI (driving under the influence) is one of the most common reasons for arrest in the state of Florida. If you are facing DUI charges, the stakes are high. A DUI conviction can result in a CRIMINAL RECORD for an otherwise law-abiding citizen – affecting your right to drive and opportunities for a job or education. A conviction for DUI may result in loss of insurance coverage or substantial increases in insurance costs. While jail time is unlikely in a first offense, it is always a possibility. DUI court costs, fines, classes and probation fees are VERY EXPENSIVE… even for the first time offender !!
