Stopped by Tampa DUI Law Enforcement?
In Tampa, Florida, both the Tampa Police and the Hillsborough County Sherriff's office have specialized squads or units handling exclusively DUI arrests. Members of the DUI unit/squad are trained as DUI investigators. Odds are great that if you have been arrested for DUI in Tampa or Hillsborough County, an officer with specialized training in DUI law enforcement has arrested you.
An experienced attorney, I provide DUI/DWI defense services that can even your odds. Since establishing my law firm, Jeff Keel, P.A., in 1995, I have handled more than 3,000 DUI cases. I am a Tampa native with a knowledge of local judges, prosecutors and law enforcement.

A word about drunk driving checkpoints or roadblocks
DUI or Drunk driving checkpoints are increasingly prevalent in the Tampa area. These roadblocks are set up on selected roads and highways. Drivers are checked for driving under the influence or driving while impaired. Guidelines for these checkpoints must be published in advance―motorists must know where the checkpoints will be and what grounds can be cited for a stop.
As your lawyer, I can determine if these guidelines were followed and use noncompliance as part of a defense. I have the skills and resources to address drunk driving concerns involving:
- First-offense DUI
- DUI test refusal
- DUI accidents
- DUI and suspended CDLs
- Underage drinking
- Charge reductions
In addition to handling the criminal charges you face, I will also address the administrative side. Because you must request an administrative hearing within 10 days of arrest, you must act quickly or risk losing the chance to challenge aspects of your case.
Dealing with local issues
I have extensive trial experience; judges, prosecutors and DUI law enforcement know my firm's successful record.
Being arrested for and charged with DUI is a frightening experience. Choose an attorney who can help level the playing field. Contact my firm to schedule your free consultation about a Tampa area DUI law enforcement matter. Call me at 813.282.3858 or contact me online.
