Out of State DUI Cases
DUI Defense Attorney in Gainesville
Nearly every state in the U.S. is part of an agreement known as the Driver License Compact. The Driver License Compact involves states reporting traffic violations on a national database called the National Driver Register, which can be viewed by all states that are part of the compact. This means that if an individual who lives out of state (Texas, for example) is arrested for DUI while driving in Florida, then Florida will very likely report the offense to the register, and the individual's home state of Texas may decide to suspend their license and possibly levy other penalties.
If you have been charged with DUI while driving in Florida but live in a different state, then it is highly advised you contact a Gainesville DUI defense lawyer who can represent you in your case and may help you avoid license suspension or revocation in your home state.
