The Umansky Law Firm

A recent Umansky Law Firm client who had a prior DUI arrest was pulled over by the Indian River Sheriff's Office for suspicion of driving under the influence. The client was ultimately arrested by the Osceola County Sheriff's Office for this offense. The client was taken into custody and given a breath test. The client blew a zero on two different tests. Based on what the deputy had witnessed, the client was asked to take, and submitted to, a urine test.

The client had extenuating medical reasons and was concerned about the medication she was on showing up in her urine. She was self-medicating and was treating pain. Attorney Lindsey Gergely of the Umansky Law Firm proactively received a copy of all police reports in the case and looked over them very closely. Attorney Gergely immediately contacted the prosecutor and explained the client's situation, including her medical condition. After reviewing the case and speaking with Attorney Gergely, the prosecutor decided to drop the charges against the client.

The police will pull you over if they suspect you are driving under the influence. Sometimes the medication people take may cause them to not drive as well as they could. However, for those who are legitimately trying to follow the law and are not taking pain medication simply because they want to, sometimes there are situations beyond their control.

If you have been charged with driving under the influence in the Orange County or Orlando, Florida area, or anywhere else in the state of Florida, please contact the experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Umansky Law Firm for an initial consultation.
