CRIMINAL TRAFFIC
CASES
When You're Involved in a DUI, Driving With A Suspended License, Criminal Car Accident or
Any Other Criminal Traffic Citation Case,
We Protect Your Rights!
Certain tickets issued by a police officer are considered
"criminal" offenses. Others are considered "civil infractions."
Tickets for speeding, broken taillight, or other equipment problems,
careless driving, etc., are civil infractions that do not carry the
possibility of jail or probation. They can result in fines, court
costs and points on your driving record. A lawyer may still be of
assistance to you for any ticket, even a civil infraction.
Criminal traffic tickets are much more serious and should definitely
be handled with the assistance of a criminal traffic attorney.
Criminal traffic tickets can include charges such as Driving Under
the Influence (DUI), Reckless Driving, Driving with a Suspended
License (DWLS), and Leaving the Scene of an Accident with Injury.
These kind of charges, brought by the State Attorney's Office,
require a court appearance and cannot simply be resolved by paying a
fine to the Clerk of the Circuit Court in your county. They can
also result in probation supervised by the Department of Corrections
or the Salvation Army, which handles misdemeanor probations. They
can result in jail time, depending on the severity of the charges,
the person's criminal record, and other potentially aggravating
factors.
At Kinney, Fernandez & Boire, we know how to handle criminal traffic
offenses and will appear in court on your behalf. Often times,
we will appear in your place, so you do not have to go to court
personally. Our attorneys know how to deal with such issues as
Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicle administrative
suspensions of your driver's license, (which will often occur with
an arrest for DUI even before you go to court to answer to the
criminal charge of DUI) Breathalyzer testing, Field Sobriety Tests,
the Florida Implied Consent Law, DUI investigation procedures and
techniques followed by law enforcement, blood testing and urine
testing for DUI, and all other aspects of a Driving Under the
Influence arrest. We also know how to deal with someone who has
a bad driving record, with prior traffic tickets and a suspended
license.
In most cases, we will appear on your behalf and tell the court that
you plea Not Guilty. This will give us the opportunity to demand
discovery from the State Attorney's Office. Discovery may include
copies of the police reports, breath test results and paperwork,
video tape of the Field Sobriety Tests, witness statements, etc. We
will review all of the information and consult with you in order to
determine which direction we should go. Each case is different,
some should be resolved in a plea bargain, some should go to a jury
trial. Some cases are resolved via Motions To Dismiss, or Motions
to Suppress Evidence, when law enforcement has failed to comply with
the law. Regardless, your attorney will be there with you each step
of the way, trying to keep your time away from work and family to a
minimum, working on your case, exploring all of your options and
pursuing a defense on your behalf.
At Kinney, Fernandez & Boire, our
criminal traffic attorneys will
provide you the representation you deserve, spending as much time as
is needed in order to explore all possible defenses, answer your
questions, and bring resolution to your case. A Florida Drivers
license is considered a privilege under Florida Law. At Kinney,
Fernandez & Boire, we understand that it is not just a privilege,
but an essential requirement in people's lives. We will work with
you to keep your license, to protect your driving record, and to ensure
that your rights are protected.
