Federal DUI Penalties in Florida
If you have been arrested for driving under the influence on federal property, then you have been charged with federal DUI. A federal DUI conviction is considered a class B misdemeanor resulting in up to 6 months in federal prison, up to 5 years federal probation, &/or up to $5k in fines.
You also may not request a jury trial for most of these cases, and the trial will likely be before a federal judge. As you can imagine, facing these charges without proper legal care, counsel, and representation can be disastrous. Not many people have heard of a federal DUI. If you have been charged with a federal DUI due to a blood alcohol content over 0.08, it is essential you enlist in the help of Vanover Law Firm. Our team has 20+ years of experience handling over 3,200 DUI cases.

What is Considered "Federal Property"?
If you are arrested on federal property, you will be tried in a federal court of law and prosecuted by a United States District Attorney. Federal property includes but is not limited to military bases, courthouses, airports, post offices, national parks and forests, national monuments, historic grounds, or any lots or buildings that are owned by the United States government.

"DUI for charging my phone"Great team, Chris and Angela are great, although things didn’t go easy through the COVID period they battled for me, unfortunately my Life took a turn and regretfully I backed out of going to trial and took the plea offered, I know what I did and I would make the same decision again in that situation but unfortunately some of the best decisions are punishable by law, I truly think Mr. Garret would have been a force to be reckoned with at trial, and I would have love to have witnessed it, but life is life. I would whole heartedly recommend him and his team, they where a blessing to me in the understanding all my circumstances.. God Bless- Ken Strickland
