DUI Defense Lawyers Serving Tampa & Sarasota, Florida

DUI Appeals Attorneys

Many individuals in Tampa and Sarasota are pleased to find out that their DUI cases are not over once they receive a conviction.  Florida law allows for defendants to appeal guilty convictions if certain factors are present in their cases. In order to determine if your DUI case is eligible for an appeal, you will need a lawyer who can go over every detail of your arrest, your charges, and your trial to find any information that might make it possible for you to file a request for a DUI appeal.  During criminal trials, legal errors can sometimes occur, resulting in a guilty verdict.  Legal errors include lack of evidence, judge and juror mistakes, and the allowance of inadmissible evidence during trial.  Accordingly, if new evidence is discovered after the conclusion of your case that proves your innocence, it may be possible to appeal your DUI conviction. 

There is a specific window of time in which you have to file for an appeal after conviction occurs.  An appeal must be filed within 30 days of the original conviction, otherwise it will not be considered.  Taking this into consideration, it is important that you seek representation immediately from a DUI defense attorney who can begin working to gather evidence to win your appeal.
