Select a question to examine the answer.

• 01What should I do after a DUI arrest in Florida?
  Answer

  Stay calm, exercise your right to remain silent, and contact a defense attorney as quickly as possible. Early steps — including license-related deadlines — can shape the entire case, so a prompt consultation is critical.

• 02Can a DUI charge affect my license?
  Answer

  Yes. A DUI arrest in Florida can trigger an administrative license process separate from the criminal case. Eligibility for hardship or formal review depends on the specific facts, so reach out promptly to understand your options.

• 03Do I need a lawyer for a first DUI?
  Answer

  A first DUI in Florida is still a criminal charge with serious collateral consequences. An experienced DUI defense attorney can evaluate evidence, suppression issues, and resolution paths a non-lawyer simply cannot.

• 04What makes a former prosecutor useful in a DUI case?
  Answer

  Sabrina built DUI cases for the State. She knows what prosecutors look for, where files are vulnerable, and how negotiations realistically move — and she brings that perspective to the defense table.

• 05Does every DUI case go to trial?
  Answer

  No. Many cases resolve through motions, negotiated dispositions, or diversion-style outcomes when available. Trial is one option among several — the right path depends on the evidence and the client's priorities.

• 06Can The DUI Gyal help with criminal defense beyond DUI?
  Answer

  Yes. In addition to DUI, the firm handles misdemeanor and felony criminal defense — possession, battery, theft, resisting, firearm offenses — and seal/expungement matters under Florida law.

• 07How much does representation cost?
  Answer

  Fees are quoted on a starting-at basis and depend on the charge, complexity, urgency, evidence volume, and case posture. A consultation provides a clear, written fee scope.

• 08What does an initial consultation include?
  Answer

  A confidential review of the facts, a plain-English explanation of what is at stake, the realistic options on the table, and the next steps if you choose to retain the firm.

• 09Why should I hire Sabrina?
  Answer

  Former prosecutor with DUI-focused experience, MADD recognition for Central Florida DUI prosecution, and ongoing law-enforcement training on Florida criminal law. Prepared, direct, and serious about the work.

• 10Can I seal or expunge my Florida record?
  Answer

  Possibly. Eligibility under Florida Statutes § 943.0585 and § 943.059 depends on the specific case history. A consultation can determine whether you qualify and outline the FDLE process.
