DUI Defense Attorney Serving Tampa, FL

Tampa's nightlife — SoHo on Howard Avenue, Ybor City, the Riverwalk bars, game nights near Amalie Arena — comes with some of the most active DUI enforcement in the state. Tampa Police, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, and the Florida Highway Patrol all patrol the same corridors: I-275, the Selmon Expressway, Kennedy Boulevard, Dale Mabry.

If you were arrested anywhere in Hillsborough County, the 10-day clock to save your driver's license is already running. Attorney Michael Mastrogiovanni has defended DUI cases across the Tampa Bay area for over twenty years, and takes cases in Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties.

What a Tampa DUI Really Costs

A first conviction can mean a mandatory misdemeanor conviction on your criminal record — permanently, because Florida does not allow a DUI to be sealed or expunged — plus fines, DUI school, and a 6–12 month license revocation. Separately, the DMV keeps the administrative suspension on your driving record for 75 years, where employers and insurance companies can see it. Special events bring saturation patrols: Gasparilla weekend alone produces a wave of arrests every year. The charge is common; a conviction doesn't have to be.

How We Fight It

We examine the stop, the field sobriety exercises, the breath test maintenance records, and any video — cruiser cams, business CCTV, even bystander footage. We appear on your behalf whenever possible so you don't lose work days to courtroom benches. And if money is the worry, our office works with financing companies that can cover 100% of your defense fees.
