There are many things that must be done when you get arrested for a DUI but the first involves your license. As soon you are released from jail due to a Dade DUI, Broward DUI, or Palm Beach DUI, you must contact an attorney. This is so vital because your license is immediately at issue.
If you did not give a breach, urine, or in some cases blood when requested by a police officer, you license is suspended for one year. This suspension can be withdrawn for many reasons but only a trained attorney knows the law and how to protect your rights. Once arrested, the traffic ticket you received for a DUI is your license for ten days. During this time, you must request a formal hearing with the department of motor vehicles. This request has to be done within ten days of your Dade DUI, Broward DUI, or Palm Beach DUI.
If you do not request this hearing within these ten days, you and your attorney cannot challenge your one year suspension. If you are successful challenging your one year suspension, your license will be immediately reinstated.
If you gave a breath same the day of your Dade DUI, Broward DUI, or Palm Beach DUI, and this sample is over the legal limit of .08, then your license is immediately suspended for 6 months. Your DUI ticket is again your license for the next ten days. Again, you and your attorney can challenge your suspension if done so within ten days of your Dade DUI, Broward DUI, or Palm Beach DUI.
Protecting your license is the first and foremost thing that must be done and protecting your rights is the goal of Mr. Menditto.
