DUI Gladiator Award
Each year, whether it’s residents or people visiting on vacation, thousands of people are arrested for driving under the influence in Florida. While the popularity of ridesharing programs such as Uber and Lyft have actually resulted in a decrease in drunk driving arrests and accidents, people are still being booked into local jails on a daily basis for driving under the influence. When arrested for a DUI, it is imperative to contact an experienced DUI Lawyer as soon as possible. That being said, not all DUI attorneys are created equal, and in an effort to recognize the best of the best, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys came up with the Florida DUI Gladiator Award.
What is the Florida DUI Gladiator Award?
The Florida DUI Gladiator award was created by FACDL as a way for criminal defense attorneys in Florida to recognize the peer and fellow attorney they feel is the BEST DUI attorney in Florida. According to the FACDL website, the DUI Gladiator Award was created to both recognize and honor the DUI Lawyer whose “work ethics and performance best exhibits integrity and the pursuit of justice in the DUI arena on both the administrative side and the criminal side.” FACDL has been awarding the Gladiator Award at the annual Blood, Breath, & Tears seminar since 2013.
Tallahassee DUI Lawyer Attorney Aaron Wayt named Best DUI Attorney in Florida
At the 2019 annual Blood, Breath, & Tears seminar in 2019, Tallahassee DUI lawyer Attorney Aaron Wayt was named the best DUI Attorney in Florida by his peers and awarded the Gladiator Award.
Local Attorney Fred Conrad’s statement on Aaron Wayt winning award:
“Allow me, if I may, to elaborate on this. This is a STATEWIDE award handed out to the best of the best. It was started several years ago and has been awarded to lawyers from all corners of Florida. Aaron is the FIRST lawyer from the panhandle and I’m pretty sure he’s the YOUNGEST lawyer to get it.”
Don Pumphrey, Jr.
Attorney Don Pumphrey, Jr. is a former prosecutor, former law enforcement officer, and a successful and experienced criminal defense attorney. Don has achieved over 100 not guilty verdicts at trial and over 2,000 dismissals.
