Speeding Ticket in Jacksonville, FL? Call (904) FIX MYDL (349-6935)

The experienced criminal defense attorneys of FIX MY DL defend clients against all traffic offenses. Based in Jacksonville, FL, we help clients across Northeast Florida avoid steep fines, points toward license suspension, driving school, and criminal convictions on their record.

Upon receiving a speeding ticket in the Jacksonville area, many motorists are tempted to pay the fine and "be done with it." The problem is that the state of Florida considers this a guilty plea and assesses points against your Florida driver's license (or notifies the motor vehicle department in your home state) which may mean that you will lose your license. Accumulation of too many reckless driving points or points for other offenses results in suspension of your license. Your auto insurance carrier will also raise your rates.

FIX MY DL aggressively challenges the citation to get charges dismissed, reduced to a lesser offense, or suspended (withhold of adjudication). We defend clients against all traffic offenses:

• Speeding or driving too fast for conditions
• Reckless driving / careless driving / aggressive driving
• Failure to maintain the lane
• Traffic signal violation / failure to yield
• Driving while license is suspended (DWLS)
• Driving without insurance
• DUI / DWI
• Open container of alcohol
• Seatbelt violations and equipment violations

These allegations are rarely clear cut. They are open to statutory interpretations and distinctions we can prove in court. If we can show there was no reasonable cause to stop a driver for speeding or careless driving, for instance, we can often get traffic citations dismissed. We have also successfully challenged speeding tickets clocked by radar.

If the citation resulted from a traffic accident, we try to prove that our client was not at fault or cannot be conclusively proved to be at fault. This is critical to avoid a lawsuit and keep a serious conviction off your record.

Defending Professional Drivers and Pilots

02.DUI/Criminal Traffic Offenses
Unlike many other allegations of criminal activity, Driving Under the Influence usually does not involve a conscious effort on the part of the driver to engage in criminal activity. Most criminal cases involve intent to hurt, steal, damage or destroy. Unlike so many other types of criminal cases, the typical person accused of DUI has no other criminal history and is otherwise a productive member of society. This aspect is what makes the allegation that much more devastating.

DUI / DWI / Drunk Driving Defense in Northeast Florida Call (904) FIX MYDL (349-6935)

If you or someone you know was arrested in Northeast Florida for driving drunk, the attorneys at FIX MY DL in Jacksonville, FL can help. Contact our firm and ask for a free consultation with a DUI defense lawyer.

Charges of driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can have a serious impact on your life, work, and family. You need the help of an experienced criminal defense attorney to ensure protection of your legal rights. The consequences of a DUI conviction may include jail time, fines, license suspension, license revocation, chemical dependency treatment, ignition interlock device on your car, and even loss of employment. The Florida Legislature recently changed a third offense to a felony with mandatory incarceration for felony DUI conviction.

FIX MY DL has had great success challenging the new Intoxilyzer 8000 breath test machines, and in reinstating driver's licenses for DUI.

We don’t simply take a DUI case and advise you to plead guilty.

Our DUI / DWI lawyers challenge the reason for the stop, detention and arrest, and we challenge the results of breath tests and roadside sobriety exercises in the pretrial stages. We have won DUI cases by suppressing evidence, getting DUI charges reduced to simple traffic offenses, or obtaining the outright dismissal of charges. We are one of the only DUI defense law firms prepared to take any DUI case to trial. We have won many acquittals, dismissals and not guilty verdicts at trial.

FIX MY DL has earned a reputation as one of the most effective DUI / DWI defense firms in Florida. The strength and aggressiveness of our defense strategies cause prosecutors to seriously consider reducing or dismissing DUI charges prior to trial. As a result, in most DUI cases, trial is not necessary.

Often in DWI / DUI cases, the prosecuting attorney will rely on a breathalyzer test or blood test, as well as the testimony of an arresting officer who administered a roadside sobriety exercise to establish impairment. We have researched and understand the weaknesses of breathalyzers and poorly administered roadside sobriety exercises, and we present that information to a judge or jury in order to better your chances in court. We also examine the police procedures used in traffic stops, arrests, and during detention in jail.

Experienced  Defense for All Drunk Driving Offenses

FIX MY DL is leading the charge in analyzing legal issues associated with the Intoxilyzer 8000 breathalyzer. As a result of information we have uncovered, the state of Florida has had to acknowledge deficiencies in this breath-testing machine used widely by Florida law enforcement. Some counties have even halted Intoxilyzer 8000 alcohol breath tests until the problems are corrected. Many of those counties have reverted back to the Intoxilyzer 5000, which we have also successfully challenged.

FIX MY DL is your advocate for all DUI-related issues:

• Administrative License Hearings to repair driver's record and win back driving privileges after suspension
• Charges of driving after a DUI license suspension or revocation
• Severe drunk driving offenses, such as DUI Manslaughter, DUI Causing Serious Bodily Injury, DUI Causing Property Damage, Vehicular Homicide, and Vehicular Manslaughter.
