Daytona Beach DUI Attorney
Find Your Effective Defense - (888) 785-6548
Being arrested for a DUI can be a very stressful experience, and you will face immediate consequences. The officer who arrested you will typically seize your driver's license. You will only have 10 days to apply for a formal review hearing with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) so that you can challenge the automatic suspension of your driving privileges.
Why Choose Our Daytona Beach DUI Attorneys?
If you refused to provide a breath, blood or urine test, your license will be suspended for 12 months. A Daytona Beach DUI attorney should be retained immediately upon being arrested for a DUI.
It is important to understand that the DHSMV can take away your right to drive even if the charges against you for a DUI are dismissed or reduced in criminal court. Filing for a hearing with DHSMV can prevent this from occurring if you request the hearing within 10 days of your arrest. Choose our highly experienced team to represent you.

Driver's License Suspension – Daytona Beach, Deland & West Volusia
Besides having your driver's license suspended if you are convicted of a DUI, your insurance company will more than likely increase your rates and possibly cancel your policy at the end of its term. You will need insurance to be able to lift the suspension on your license. Our state's DUI penalties are harsh. Depending on the amount of alcohol found to be in your system, you could face large fines, community service, your vehicle could be impounded, and you may have to serve time in jail.
For all of these reasons, we strongly urge you to act quickly in fighting for your defense. At Buckmaster & Ellzey, we have seen cases where breath test machines were faulty or the tests were not administered correctly. Traffic stops may have been conducted unlawfully and field sobriety tests incorrectly executed. We review every criminal defense case thoroughly and form tough defense strategies throughout the DUI process with the goal of having the charges against you reduced or dismissed.
