Hi,Can someone please tell me What can I be facing in a Florida Court if I was charged with 1.DUI ALCOHOL OR DRUGS 1ST OFFENSE 2.DUI W/DAMAGE TO PROPERTY OF ANOTHER.

I was driving back home alone after drinking beer with a friend at the beach,it was at around 8pm when I crashed my car rear front with a traffic arrow trailer,the trailer was knocked out of the right hand lane and up onto the sidewalk,but did not suffer much damage.Someone called the cops and arrived at the scene where they made me take the sobriety tests which I failed ,and then I was transported to B.A.T. where I did not refuse to take the breathalyzer and blew a BAC level .26 which is high ,and I know it means enhanced fines.So, they made me do the sobriety tests agian and taped me.

I was charged with DUI FIRST OFFENSE AND DUI WITH PROPERTY DAMAGE,and spend the night in jail,and was released on pretrial serivces next day at 5pm.I did not have to put a bond because It was my first time encounter with the law,but I have to report by phone with an officer twice a week before going to court.I have full coverage and even with dui my insurance is gonna repair my car and pay for the damages to the arrow trailer.

So, I was wondering what penalties am I going to be facing in a Florida court Florida in Broward County with the following charges:

1.DUI First Offense
2.DUI Property Damage
plus HIGH BAC LEVEL .26 and a witness who says she saw me getting out of the car to throw beer cans at her apartment building dumpster after the crash before the cops arrived.

1What's the minimum and highest fines I am gonna have to pay?
2.Can I be facing jail time for first time DUI if no other car was involved and I'dont have criminal record,not even traffic tickets.?

3. I don't want to figh to get my license back because I know is gonna be difficult with all the evidence,but I don't want to go to jail or pay high fines.Should I pay 00 dollars to a lawyer to avoid jail or high fines or should I save that money to pay the fines?

Anybody with knowledge in the matter is welcome to answer,and give suggestions what to say to the judge ,and negotiate with State prosecutors to minimize the penalties,thank you!

I'm a 24 years old recent university graduate with doble honors,and dont want to face jail,and high fines,all the bad things I never did happened to me in an instant that day.

My brother was arrested for his first dui offense in WI. He blew a .098. They want to charge him with three violations which total up to 15 points on his driver's license. I would like to know, from anyone, is there anyway we can save him from losing his license? And if someone was successful with keeping their license, how they did it? And what should we prepare for legally? Any and all help is appreciated.

It wouldn't be on my criminal record, but it's on my driving record for 55 years.

WI is the only state that does not classify a first-offense as a misdemeanor.
