Jacksonville DHSMV Hearing Lawyer
Don't Miss Your Deadline to Request a Hearing
Separate from the criminal process, those who are arrested for drunk driving in Florida will face two separate hearings: the criminal hearing and the administrative hearing. The administrative hearing is not required, but it is your only chance to fight a license suspension after a DUI. Anyone arrested for DUI has the right to request this hearing with the Florida Department of Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV), but you only have ten days before this right expires and your opportunity to restore your license is gone.
Get the representation you need today! Call Jason K.S. Porter, P.A. at (904) 701-0591 to begin discussing the details of your case.
The DHSMV request and hearing is not necessarily a simple process and it is extremely important that no time is wasted in getting the involvement of a high-quality attorney.
According to Florida Statutes §322.2615 (2012), once someone has been arrested for alleged drunk driving, the arresting officer will give them a 10-day temporary permit. Within 5 days of the arrest, the arresting officer will send to the department the following: the driver's license, an affidavit which explicitly explains the grounds of arrest, results of all breath, blood or urine tests, field sobriety test observations and notice of suspension.

We listen to your account of the DUI arrest and review the police records of the arrest and then formulate defenses that we may raise at the DHSMV hearing on your behalf.
Where helpful, we subpoena the arresting police officer so that on cross-examination we can seek to expose lapses in procedure and unlawful police stops We may challenge whether the officer had a proper basis to arrest you or whether the breath test or field sobriety test was properly done. In the case of you having refused the breath test, we may challenge the officer's persistence in communicating the consequences of refusal. We are accomplished in DHSMV hearing defense and can also advise on how to obtain a restricted license to perform essential errands and commute to work.

I have always been anti-lawyers, but I love this law firm. I give them 5-stars! The lawyer in my case was Nicole Carlucci and her assistant Brenda. They would always take the time to talk to me and help me to understand whatever questions I had. She actually cared about my situation and there aren't enough stars for them. Brenda was very helpful. I would most definitely use them again and I recommend them to anyone that wants someone to fight for you in court. Thank you!- Diego R.

100% success rate. I used Jason Porter's services two different times for a DUI charge. The first DUI case I never lost my license and he won the case. The second time it was a little more difficult because of the circumstances but we took it to trial and it seemed like an effortless victory. Jason and his staff were very professional and helpful through the entire process.I could not have asked for anything more. Thank you so much for everything.- Jeremy T.

My fiancé and I were referred here by a friend. Our lawyer was Nicole Carlucci and paralegal was Danielle Castillo, they were beyond wonderful. Easy to communicate with, always gave us our options and never made us feel pressured. Our relationship with them was very personable and we always felt as if we were their only clients! We seeked their help with regards to child support and time sharing. The experience was just wonderful!!!!! We would recommend them 10 times over.- Kizgel D.

I used Jason Porters services after a bad roll over accident involving myself and my ALMOST 1 year old daughter when I lived in Jacksonville. Within 24 hours of contacting the office, I was seen by 2 physicians and my case was in full motion. My husband was deployed, and I was scared at first. However, Mr. Porter and his ENTIRE staff had me at immediate ease. I could email or call his assistant at any hour with any concern, and would have a response very quickly. I would highly recommend this office to anyone at any time. The compassion of the entire staff was more than I could have expected.- Robyn S.
