South Florida DUI Lawyers Get Drunk Driving Case Reduced in Margate, Florida

Margate DUI Defense Attorney Wins Drinking and Driving Case in South Florida

Outcome of DUI Case in Margate:

We were able to reduce Terry’s case to a reckless driving charge. Instead of facing the tough penalties of a DUI charge and a suspended license, he only had to serve a minimal amount of time on probation. In addition, should Terry get arrested for another DUI in the future, it would count as his first DUI as opposed to his second. Terry also received a promotion at his job since the outcome of his DUI case in Margate and does not have to worry about the charge affecting his job security.

Client Concerns During DUI Case in Margate:

Terry was arrested for drunk driving. Terry was worried he would lose his license, face severe probation time, take remedial driving courses, and potentially have jail time. Terry was afraid he might either lose his job or not be able to drive to work. Luckily, Terry was not found guilty of Driving Under the Influence and we were able to keep the consequences to a minimum.

Facts about the DUI Case in Margate:

Terry had gone to other law firms for help, but his previous attorneys told him he should plead guilty as charged because he blew two times over the legal limit on the breathalyzer test. Terry thought he was innocent, so he came to us after firing his previous legal counsel.

During our review of his case, we learned that the police claimed they had probable cause to pull Terry over for two reasons. The first being he took a left turn and drove over the solid white line. Upon further research, we found that this action was not illegal in the state of Florida.

 

The second issue was with the tinting on his car. The officers had told him that the tinting on his car was illegal, but upon further investigation with an expert witness, we proved that Terry’s tints were within the legal limit.

Strategy to fight the DUI Case in Margate:

After discovering two of the faults in their charges, we were able to build a defense for Terry’s case. We decided to attack the police’s claim of probable cause to pull over Terry in the first place. This approach would prove that the police made an illegal arrest and any evidence they found against him would not be admissible in court.

Since the arrest happened in Margate where police officers aren’t required to wear body cams, there was no evidence that the officers actually performed a tint test. When our expert witness performed a tint test on Terry’s car, the witness found that his tints were completely legal.

 

The next step we took was to take an offensive approach to the case. We filed a motion to suppress under the grounds that the police performed an illegal arrest based on the faults in their investigation. A motion to suppress means is a request for the court to disregard evidence collected in an investigation because the police violated one of the client’s 4th, 5th, or 6th amendment rights. We said the police violated Terry’s 4th amendment rights against an illegal search or seizure.

 

After this, the prosecutors had to defend against the motion we filed. The prosecutors, thinking they would get an easy win due to Terry blowing over twice the legal limit, had to rethink their strategy. They began to negotiate with us in order to come up with a plea deal and before we even went before a judge, we came to an agreement and got the charges heavily reduced.

I had an unfortunate situation with a family member that lead to my arrest and being charged with DV Battery. This was the first time I had ever been arrested so I was very nervous and afraid of what was going to happen to me. After talking with Adam I decided to retain him and let me tell you this was the BEST decision I could have ever made. Adam made me feel so comfortable and confident that everything will turn out the best in my favor. He is professional, ethical and supportive. He was always available too answer any questions or concerns.Not to mention, his team at the office is awesome they are so friendly and welcoming. Anytime I had a question when I called the office they were able to guide me in the rightdirection. They always were in contact with me with any information or updates regarding my case. Adams team is GREAT!Adam delivered, my case was DISMISSED. So if you want an attorney the is gonna fight for you and get the job done retain the BEST there is Adam Rossen!!!

I had an amazing experience with The Rossen Law Firm. The staff were very professional. Attorney Susan Lawson went above and beyond working on my case. We were thoroughly prepared for trial. Mrs. Lawson reviewed hours of body and dash camera footage multiple times and aggressively performed depositions on witnesses and law enforcement.The final outcome for me was the state dropped my case, due to the great work Susan and the Rossen team performed. I didn’t even need to go to trial.This law firm does not play around. They pay attention to detail and they FIGHT FOR YOU!Thank you Adam, team, and a special thank you to Susan for your amazing work! I really appreciate you.

My experience with Rossen Law Firm was excellent. From the consultation to the end.. My attorney Susan Lawson gave my son's case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful in court. She was confident during all the court proceedings. My favorite part was when she said we are family, never once my son and I were treated other then that. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through Rossen Law Firm.
