Orlando DUI of Drugs Defense Attorney

Drugs and DUI in Orlando

While most DUI charges involve alcohol, some cases involve driving under the influence of a controlled substance like illegal drugs, prescription medication and over-the-counter medicine.  Should you find yourself in a DUI situation involving a controlled substance, the first thing you should do is contact an attorney who specializes in these types of cases.  By working with an experienced lawyer, you may avoid conviction and various criminal penalties like fines, license suspension and even imprisonment.

A law enforcement officer may pull you over if he or she has reason to believe that you are driving “under the influence” of any type of drug due to erratic driving behavior or violation of a traffic law.  You may also be asked to perform a field sobriety test to indicate impaired mental and motor function.  Driving under the influence of a prescription drug or any type of legal medicine is a criminal offense and should not be taken lightly.
