Orlando DUI Defense

Lawyers for DUI Charges in Orlando

Defending clients in the face of DUI (driving under the influence) charges is never easy, but with proper legal knowledge and a tailor-made plan of legal action it is possible to secure positive outcomes. In fact, there are actually numerous viable DUI defense strategies that may be explored in taking on any Orlando drunk driving case.  And at Rivas Law Firm, P.A. our attorneys have over 17 years of combined legal experience and extensive resources to dedicate toward building the most effective defense strategies on our clients' behalf.

How can an Orlando DUI attorney at our offices help you fight your charges? Although the specific strategy and defense will vary depending on your unique case as well as all the circumstances surrounding your arrest, field sobriety testing, blood or breath testing, and numerous other factors, following are some examples of possible points our attorneys may bring to light:

• The breath test device was not properly calibrated or maintained in accordance with Florida state standards.
• The arresting officer did not have probable cause to pull you over for suspected drunk driving in the first place.
• You were not lawfully arrested.
• Physical evidence (i.e. a beer bottle or other item) collected at the scene was obtained through an illegal search and seizure.
• Field sobriety tests were administered improperly, as evidenced by officer testimony or perhaps a video mounted in the arresting officer's vehicle.
• An outside factor influenced the outcome of a breath test or field sobriety test, such as a physical illness, injury, age, weight, or another condition.
• The officer's testimony may be inaccurate, due to prior issues with following protocol or making DUI arrests.
