When you are charged with driving under the influence in Pasco County, the consequences can include license suspension, heavy fines, probation, and even jail time. Under Florida Statute §316.193, a person commits DUI by driving or being in actual physical control of a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or controlled substances, or while registering a blood-alcohol level of 0.08 or higher. Despite the statute’s apparent simplicity, numerous legal defenses exist from challenging the legality of the traffic stop to disputing the accuracy of breathalyzer and field sobriety test results and a skilled Pasco County DUI lawyer can make the difference between a conviction and a favorable outcome.
Butash Law Group has served the Tampa Bay area for more than 30 years, defending clients throughout Pasco County communities including Wesley Chapel, Land O’ Lakes, Lutz, and Dade City. The firm’s DUI defense attorneys conduct a thorough analysis of every case scrutinizing probable cause for arrest, field sobriety exercise administration, breathalyzer calibration records, and constitutional rights violations to build the strongest possible defense strategy tailored to each client’s unique circumstances.
