I am generally known to be the "Go To Guy for DUI" on Florida's Treasure Coast. I wrote the book on Florida Drunk Driving Defense - literally. It's called the DUI Book: Florida Edition - A Citizen's Guide to Fighting A drunk Driving Case. I also own my Intoxilyzer machines, models 5000 and 8000. I have handled cases throughout Florida, from Pensacola to Key West. I have also taught classes in DUI Defense both locally (in Fort Pierce, Key West, Orlando and West Palm Beach) and across the country (New Orleans, Dallas, Los Angeles, Atlanta), even on a cruise ship in the Caribbean.
