Know the Penalties...
If you or a
loved one has been arrested for Driving Under the Influence, of alcohol or drugs,
we strongly recommend getting a lawyer on your side as soon as possible. A good attorney can
protect the rights of the accused and work hard to keep their client out of jail and protect
his or her driving privileges.
The legal team at John O. McGowan and Associates, P.A., have over 20 years of experience representing clients accused of DUI in SW Florida, Tampa, and in many other Florida locations.
As we analyze your case, we will analyze the case from all angles and ascertain whether the police violated any procedure during the arrest and if they did, we can often get charges reduced or the case dismissed.
Moreover, an experienced, skilled legal team can do many other things. They can challenge the results of the breathalyzer tests or other sobriety tests. They can make a plea for a lesser punishment or even help you with other charges that might be related to the drunken driving charge, such as traffic violations or drug charges.
Get Experience on Your Side...

Attorneys appointed to represent you by the Court, though often talented, are frequently overloaded with clients and often cannot devote the time necessary to build a strong case.
