DUI first offence

Answered by attorney Charles D. Scott (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott PLLC
You mentioned that you obtained a lawyer, I suppose my first question to you is have you discussed your concerns with your lawyer, as he/she would be in the best position to discuss your case. You did not state whether you submitted to a breath test, it sounds like you did not based upon what you wrote. If you submit to a breath test the results will either show you were not impaired as defined by a BAC under .08, or you were presumed impaired if BAC was over .o8.  If you refuse the breath test you give up the opportunity to show that your BAC was under .08.  As for the questions, field sobriety tests, and breath test, the law is clear that you are not entitled to a lawyer for field sobriety testing or breath testing. The only time you are entitled to a lawyer is during questioning. The officer should have read you your miranda rights before asking you any questions. however any spontaneous statement made by you which was not in response to a question, is evidence,  and not protected by Miranda. Most police have a video tape rolling in in the breath testing room and any statements made should be on tape. With regard to your passing or believing you passed the field sobriety tests, there are six to eight clues related to each test that determine whether you passed or not. These tests are divided attention tests and designed to not only assess your physical ability but also your mental ability to listen and follow direction, something which decreases with impairment. Many people believe they passed the field sobriety tests but actually failed based on the assessment criteria.

If I live in another state, can I hire an attorney to help take care of a DUI in another state?

Contact an attorney in the location that issued the citation. Whether you appear live depends on the Judge.

Can I get a Florida drivers license if I have an OWI in Wisconsin but give them my California license?

Answered by attorney Charles D. Scott (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott PLLC
Don't mess with the drivers license office, it is a felony to commit fraud upon the drivers license office. If you have a charge in Wisconsin, own up to it, and disclose it. If your last license was in Wisconsin, then disclose it.  You will either get a license or you wont, and you should not misrepresent anything.  It is possible that Florida will give you a license or perhaps a restricted or business only license. Be honest please.
