MADD Top DUI Prosecutor — Central Florida, 2016 & 2017
Serving Orlando and Central Florida
The Free Consultation
What the consultation covers.
The initial consultation is free and confidential. It is a conversation about the facts of your case and what needs attention first.
What the charge is, and what the State has to prove.
The criminal case and the separate DHSMV license case, and the deadlines that come with each.
What evidence exists so far — the stop, field sobriety exercises, chemical testing, and video.
What happens at the first court date and what to expect after it.
How the office works with you, and what the next step looks like.
Coverage: Orlando and Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, and surrounding Central Florida. If you are unsure whether your case falls within the coverage area, reach out — availability is confirmed case by case.
Every DUI case turns on its own facts. The defense begins by examining how the stop occurred, how the investigation was conducted, what the recordings show, and whether the evidence supports the State's allegations.
Reason for the Stop
Review how the encounter began and what the available reports and recordings show.
Field Sobriety Exercises
Examine the instructions, conditions, administration, observations, and available video.
Chemical Testing
Review breath, blood, or urine evidence and the circumstances surrounding collection and testing.
Video and Audio
Compare body-camera, dash-camera, station, dispatch, and other available recordings.
Reports and Statements
Identify material details, omissions, inconsistencies, and the sequence of events described.
Court and License Issues
Consider the criminal case and the separate driver's-license concerns that may follow an arrest.
She has seen how DUI cases are built. Now she builds the defense.
Before moving into defense, Sabrina Jadunandan served as a prosecutor in Orlando's Ninth Judicial Circuit and handled thousands of cases. Her DUI-specific background includes recognition as MADD Top DUI Prosecutor in Central Florida in 2016 and 2017, a statewide MADD nomination in 2017, NHTSA Field Sobriety Exercise coursework, and work as a certified DUI instructor.
That background informs a focused review of the evidence, the prosecution's theory, the available recordings, and the issues that can shape the defense.
A clear first step when the situation feels uncertain.

Straight Answers
Common questions before the first call.
Is the DUI consultation free?
Yes. The initial consultation with The DUI Gyal is free and confidential. You can call the office at 407-274-2598 or submit the consultation form, and the conversation covers the facts of your case and the immediate court and license issues at no cost.
What should I bring to a DUI consultation?
Bring anything you were given at the arrest: the citation or notice of suspension, any paperwork from the officer, your bond or court date information, and your driver's license. If you have photos, video, or the names of witnesses, bring those too — but nothing is required to start the conversation.
How soon after a DUI arrest should I talk to a lawyer?
As soon as possible. A Florida DUI opens two files at once — the criminal case and a separate administrative license case through the DHSMV — and the license side has its own short deadline that starts running from the date of the arrest.
Do you handle DUI cases outside Orlando?
Yes. The firm represents clients across the Orlando metro and surrounding Central Florida counties, including Orange, Osceola, and Seminole. If you're unsure whether your case falls within the coverage area, reach out — availability is confirmed case by case.
Sabrina was amazing every step of the way through my legal proceedings. Sabrina explained everything from the beginning very clearly and everything went exactly as she said it would. She constantly kept me updated and always made time to talk with me about any concerns I had. I would absolutely recommend Sabrina to anyone needing legal assistance!

Ms. Sabrina and her team at MC & J Law are great at what they do. I had a DUI case that was taken to trial, and was found not guilty. The way Sabrina and her team prepared and executed this case was truly incredible. Best lawyers in Orlando hands down.

I cannot thank Sabrina enough for their incredible support throughout my case. I was unsure and nervous about the process, she took the time to explain everything clearly. I felt informed and confident at every step. Her professionalism, dedication, and expertise truly made a difference during my Trial.
