Miami Dui Attorney - Jonathan blecher, p.a.

Florida has some of the toughest DUI laws in the country. A conviction for a DUI will subject you to harsh penalties with long lasting effects. I'm Jonathan Blecher and for over thirty years, I've defended thousands of good people who've simply made a mistake in judgment or been wrongly charged with DUI. I understand the growing problem of DUI in our society, but the often overlooked fact is that innocent people are charged with DUI every day. Even if you believe that you may have been driving under the influence at the time of your arrest, you may be able to win your case. It's my philosophy, as an experienced DUI defense lawyer, to vigorously protect the constitutional rights of Florida citizens. For most of my clients, their DUI arrest is the first time that they've seen the backseat of a police car, let alone the hard bench of a jail cell. It's a personal, painful, and sobering experience. I take special care to put my clients at ease and make certain that I explain how their case and their legal process may play out. Every one of my clients has my personal mobile phone number to use if they have a question about their case after hours. When my clients hire me, they get me. I'm the lawyer that they hire and I'm the lawyer that's there with them in court. What sets me apart is simply the quantity and quality of experience I have in DUI defense. I learned how the prosecution builds their cases when I served as an Assistant State Attorney in Miami. That experience gives me exceptional insight into the mind of a prosecutor. I've defended thousands of DUI and DUI-related cases, lectured to police on courtroom procedure, delivered seminars to other lawyers on DUI defense practice, and speak frequently to civic, business and legal groups. You need to stay on top of the changes and trends in your field. That's why I belong to the National College for DUI Defense, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, attend seminars, read updates, and author articles on DUI defense topics. There are dozens of ways that I can help you fight these charges. Some of the most common defenses include challenging the illegal stop of your car, challenging the roadside sobriety tests, the chemical tests and suppressing your statements made to the police. Not every DUI case requires a fight. An experienced lawyer will know if negotiation is the better course of action, especially in cases where there are injured victims. Practicing in the criminal courts for over 30 years has allowed me to have close working relationships with judges, prosecutors, police and courthouse staff. Those close working relationships can, and do, deliver excellent results for my clients. For over 30 years and over 3,000 cases, I've been defending otherwise good people charged with DUI and other serious crimes.
