With Miami being one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, we get more than “snow birds” flying in from places like Buffalo, New York during the winter, where temperatures can be freezing up to six months out of the year; we get visitors all year round, and who can blame them?
By day, visitors flock to Miami’s white sandy beaches known for their crystal blue water where people can see all the way down. Not even Southern California’s beaches can top that! By night, they take advantage of some of the most exciting nightlife in the world.
People visit Miami for work and pleasure, but sometimes they end up leaving with more than great memories filled with sand and sun, they leave on DUIprobation. It happens, and when it does the out-of-towner usually has no idea of what they’re supposed to do about their license or their criminal charges.
Do they have to return to Florida for a hearing? Will they lose their driver’s license back home? If they do nothing, will there be a warrant for their arrest?
Will my home state find out about my Florida DUI?
I know this scenario can be overwhelming, but it is not hopeless! There’s a lot that can be done to resolve it. The first thing you should do is contact a Miami DUI attorney who can look up your case, review the evidence, and explain which options are available.
Know that anythingcan happen in court, and real miracles happen every day. I don’t want you to automatically assume that you’ll be heading to jail. Instead, stay positive and contact me so I can explain your possible defenses.
Don’t throw in the towel and whatever you do, don’t plead guilty to your Florida DUI charges. If you do, you will suffer lasting consequences, which will follow you to your home state.
If this isn’t your first DUIoffense, you could be sent to jail and you could lose your license for years if you don’t hire a good defense attorney – so call me! As a former prosecutor with over 30 years’ experience, you can’t go wrong by reaching out to my Miami DUI defense firm.
