Florida DUI and Drug Possession Defense: Complete Case Dismissal Through Strategic Legal Action
When facing both DUI and drug possession charges in Florida, having an experienced criminal defense attorney who understands the complexities of medical marijuana law can be the difference between conviction and complete case dismissal. Our St. Lucie County client's case demonstrates how swift legal action and strategic advocacy achieved a No File decision within weeks of charges being filed.
Criminal Defense Case Details:
Our returning client faced multiple charges in St. Lucie County: DUI and Possession of a Controlled Substance Without Prescription. These combined charges threatened significant penalties, including potential jail time, substantial fines, driver's license suspension, and a permanent criminal record that could impact future employment and opportunities.
Having previously represented this client successfully in Palm Beach County for traffic violations and a prior DUI case, our firm understood their specific circumstances and was prepared to act immediately upon their retention.
