St. Lucie DUI Defense Attorney
Defending People Against DU Charges in St. Lucie
The Law Offices of David Golden, P.A., has been providing aggressive DUI defense services to clients in the St. Lucie area for years, and can help you if you have been arrested for drunk driving. There are two aspects to every DUI case: the criminal case and the hearing with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. If you have been charged with driving under the influence, you can trust a St. Lucie DUI lawyer at our firm to prepare an aggressive defense on your behalf at both the DMV hearing and in criminal court in an effort to save your driver's license and help you avoid a DUI conviction.
DMV Hearing
Anyone arrested for DUI in St. Lucie will need to appear at a hearing with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. This hearing is your opportunity to challenge the suspension of your driver's license, which will have been confiscated and temporarily suspended at the time of your arrest. It is very important that you schedule this hearing within 10 days of your arrest. Failure to do so will compromise your right to a hearing and thus jeopardize your right to contest the suspension of your license, in which case your license could be suspended anywhere from 90 days to one year.
Criminal Case
The criminal case is the place where you will address your charges for driving under the influence in St. Lucie. Should you work with a DUI defense lawyer at our firm, you can trust every effort will be made to prepare a strong defense that maximizes your chances of securing a favorable case result. We are not afraid to negotiate outside of court or fight your charges during trial.
