Those charged with DUI or DWI in Polk County or Hardee County can trust their legal defense to Lobb & Mohr.
Reputable DUI/DWI attorneys make sure clients understand their legal issue
Driving under the influence (DUI) is a serious crime. Sometimes referred to as DWI, or driving while intoxicated, this infraction carries significant penalties, which only get worse with subsequent convictions. For these criminal charges, it is critical to your freedom and your future to retain skilled, knowledgeable DUI defense attorneys as quickly as possible. At Lobb & Mohr, our lawyers have more than 38 years of combined courtroom experience, much of it focused on handling misdemeanor and felony charges.
When you are pulled over and given a test to judge your blood alcohol level, the police officers look for a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 or above. Depending on the size of the person, that level could be reached if you’ve had as few as one or two, or as many as four or five. The legal BAC limit for drivers under 21, at 0.02, is far lower than that. You can reach that level by consuming less than one alcoholic beverage. Although commonly thought of as drunk driving, DWI or DUI can also refer to driving a vehicle under the influence of drugs, be they chemical substances or controlled substances.
