Sarasota County DUI Court

Sarasota County, unlike Hillsborough or Pinellas County, have a court assigned to DUIs that was established in 2008 to cut back on the number of repeat DUI arrests. Similar to drug court, DUI court does so by providing alternative sentencing geared towards rehabilitation rather than punishment. Often, the probationary requirements of DUI court can exceed that of a non-DUI court plea depending on the number off DUI offenses one has committed. But in many cases, it can be the better option.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
Pallegar Law, always put my family first, their team always explained things in full detail, and got the very best results possible. They genuinely care. Our family will forever be grateful. Thank you. Dennis
★★★★★
He took me on and from the word go communicated everything in a timely and professional fashion about how everything is going to be played it; and then delivered word for word. The best part about them apart from their professionalism and efficiency would have to be their honesty which lets you entrust them, which in today's day and age is a rare virtue. Hemant
★★★★★
