Client was arrested for DUI after hitting and badly damaging a guardrail in Deltona. The State agreed to offer her their first time offender program but only if she agreed to the officer’s estimated $14,000 in damages to the guardrail. We knew that was an outrageous estimate so we contact the City of Deltona and spoke with the city manager. He did some research for us and the real restitution owed was only $2,400. That’s a huge difference! The prosecutor was satisfied with that amount after seeing the correspondence from the City and client got her reckless driving withhold.
