If you or a loved one...
has been arrested for drunk driving (DUI, DWI), or 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.
Penalties are severe!
Our senior criminal defense attorney, John McGowan, has spent more than 20 years helping people accused of DUI and DWI in SW Florida.
Mr. McGowan knows how to investigate an arrest to see if the police violated any procedures -- if they did, he can often get charges reduced or the case dismissed.
Moreover, an experienced, skilled DUI / DWI lawyer can do many other things. He can challenge the results of the breathalyzer tests or other sobriety tests. He can make a plea for a lesser punishment. He can even help you with other charges that might be related to the drunken driving charge, such as traffic violations or drug charges.
Defense attorneys...
appointed by the state, though often talented, are frequently overloaded with clients and can not devote the time to build a strong case. Mr. McGowan or Mr. Clarke, on the other hand, will spend the time it takes to defend your rights.
We want you to make sure of your choice of attorney, so we do not charge anything for an initial consultation. our attorneys return all calls and e-mails quickly. Upon being retained, they will immediately begin working on your case.
