Why Fight Your DUI?

Sarasota DUI Attorneys

When you are facing the possibility of DUI charges, you may wonder what the benefit is of fighting your charges, rather than simply accepting a plea bargain. A lawyer at Finebloom & Haenel can answer all of your questions about drunk driving, DUI penalties, and all of the consequences that a DUI conviction can have on you now and in the future. On this page, we have also included some basic information as to why it is beneficial to fight your DUI.

If you accept a plea bargain, you are essentially admitting guilt for a lesser charge. Although by accepting a plea bargain you may face lesser penalties and therefore no term of imprisonment, you will still have a criminal conviction on your record and will face certain mandatory penalties. This may include license suspension, fines and community service. Even if you took field sobriety tests and were informed by the officer that you failed miserably, even if you took a breath test or blood test and showed a result that was far above the legal limit, even if law enforcement informs you that their case against you is rock solid – there are still ways that an experienced Sarasota DUI attorney can fight your DUI charges and WIN.

There are numerous aspects to a DUI case. The right attorney will have the knowledge, experience and resources to thoroughly review all of these and determine exactly how to approach your defense in order to give you the greatest opportunity of avoiding a conviction altogether. At times, an attorney may even be able to have charges lowered or dropped so you can also avoid a plea bargain.
