DUI Defense in NAS Pensacola, FL
Naval Air Station Pensacola is one of the Navy’s largest training installations and the historic “Cradle of Naval Aviation,” home of the Blue Angels. On base, security falls to Navy Security Forces and NCIS. Off base, though, a service member’s arrest in the Pensacola area runs through the civilian Escambia County courts and can carry command and security-clearance consequences on top of the criminal case.
An off-base DUI can cost a NAS Pensacola service member base driving privileges and put a security clearance under review long before the criminal case resolves. Gilbert fights the charge while helping protect the clearance and career.
Military authorities handle on-base incidents at NAS Pensacola, but a civilian arrest off base is prosecuted through the Escambia County courts at the M.C. Blanchard Judicial Building, with booking at the Escambia County Jail. Attorney Gilbert defends the civilian charge while keeping its military consequences in view.

After a DUI arrest, you will be taken to jail for processing. Your license may be taken and you'll receive a citation. You typically have 10 days from the arrest date to request a formal review hearing with the DHSMV, or your license will be suspended automatically. Call an attorney immediately.
Florida law gives you 10 days after a DUI arrest to request a formal review hearing with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV). If you do not request this hearing within 10 days, your license will be automatically suspended. An attorney can file this request on your behalf.
Florida's implied consent law means refusing a breathalyzer comes with its own penalties, including a one-year license suspension for a first refusal and an 18-month suspension for subsequent refusals. However, refusal also means no BAC evidence. Whether refusal helps or hurts your case depends on the specific circumstances, which is why you need an attorney to evaluate your options.
