South Florida Attorney Gets DUI Case Reduced in Fort Lauderdale

She now rests easy, finally able to put the stress of having to navigate a legal case during a pandemic behind her.

Client Concerns During DUI Case in Fort Lauderdale:

Like many who face the uncertainty and confusion of having to deal with an unexpected DUI charge, Camila initially felt overwhelmed. If Camila had accepted her original DUI charge offer, she could have been facing a minimum of a 6 month probation, a conviction that would remain permanently on her record for 75 years, and a stigma that could potentially follow her for a lifetime (affecting both her future employment and social relationships).

Facts about the DUI Case in Fort Lauderdale:

Camila was driving west down Broward Blvd in Fort Lauderdale after a night out with friends. At some point during her travel, Camila began to notice a Fort Lauderdale police vehicle following close behind her. Figuring that her cellphone use may have influenced her driving, Camila was not too surprised when the officer eventually pulled her over. What she did not expect during that encounter, however, was to be suspected of drunk driving and subjected to a Field Sobriety Test.

Camila was initially intimidated by Officer Fithian, but was confident that she was not drunk and therefore had nothing to fear. As a result, Camila submitted to the Field Sobriety Exercises. But before partaking (and over again throughout the entirety of her multi-test performance) Camila warned the officer that she was off-balance because she had vertigo. The officer, however, misunderstood Camilia, thinking that she was saying that she was “on-balance” and “vertical” due to her accent.

Unfortunately for Camila, a language barrier, along with inattentive behavior on the part of the officer, kept her from being able to relay those concerns successfully. That same language barrier, combined with her balance disorder, then went on to affect her ability to follow through with her given instructions, thereby factoring in to her eventual arrest.

Not wanting to be penalized simply for being a non-native English speaker, Camila eventually began an online search hoping to find the best DUI lawyer Broward County had to offer. Having found us immediately in those results, she very quickly set up a free strategy session.

Strategy to fight the DUI Case in Fort Lauderdale

The strategy for fighting Camila’s DUI case focused heavily on Officer Fithian’s testimonial. The bodycam footage revealed that a lot of what the officer recorded in his incident report did not align with video evidence. The footage further demonstrated that the officer repeatedly failed to employ the proper investigation techniques needed for the elimination of false-positive DUIs. Such negligence, coupled with Officer Fithian’s extensive service and membership in the Fort Lauderdale DUI Task Force Unit, led to a defense that questioned his credibility and motive.

This defense was never put before a jury, however, as Camila’s case was brought to a close before even reaching trial. Her hard fought battle ended with her desired outcome of a reduction in charge.

I had an unfortunate situation with a family member that lead to my arrest and being charged with DV Battery. This was the first time I had ever been arrested so I was very nervous and afraid of what was going to happen to me. After talking with Adam I decided to retain him and let me tell you this was the BEST decision I could have ever made. Adam made me feel so comfortable and confident that everything will turn out the best in my favor. He is professional, ethical and supportive. He was always available too answer any questions or concerns.Not to mention, his team at the office is awesome they are so friendly and welcoming. Anytime I had a question when I called the office they were able to guide me in the rightdirection. They always were in contact with me with any information or updates regarding my case. Adams team is GREAT!Adam delivered, my case was DISMISSED. So if you want an attorney the is gonna fight for you and get the job done retain the BEST there is Adam Rossen!!!

I had an amazing experience with The Rossen Law Firm. The staff were very professional. Attorney Susan Lawson went above and beyond working on my case. We were thoroughly prepared for trial. Mrs. Lawson reviewed hours of body and dash camera footage multiple times and aggressively performed depositions on witnesses and law enforcement.The final outcome for me was the state dropped my case, due to the great work Susan and the Rossen team performed. I didn’t even need to go to trial.This law firm does not play around. They pay attention to detail and they FIGHT FOR YOU!Thank you Adam, team, and a special thank you to Susan for your amazing work! I really appreciate you.

My experience with Rossen Law Firm was excellent. From the consultation to the end.. My attorney Susan Lawson gave my son's case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful in court. She was confident during all the court proceedings. My favorite part was when she said we are family, never once my son and I were treated other then that. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through Rossen Law Firm.
