The Umansky Law Firm

A recent Umansky Law Firm client and successful small business owner was stopped by a law enforcement officer for speeding, weaving, and following the vehicle in front of him too closely. The officer suspected the client of driving under the influence because the officer could smell alcohol on the client's breath. The officer also claimed the client's eyes were bloodshot and watery, and the client had a slight orbital sway.

The officer requested the client to perform a field sobriety test. The client agreed, but the officer claimed the client failed the test. He was arrested there for suspicion of DUI. The officer then searched the client's vehicle and found dugs. The client was then charged with felony possession of hydrocodone. The client was transported to the breath testing facility, submitted to a breath test, and was found to be over the limit.

Umansky Law Firm attorney Zahra Umansky contacted the intake prosecutor on the felony possession of hydrocodone case and was able to convince the prosecutor to not file formal charges against the client for the felony. Attorney Umansky was then able to get the client into the pretrial diversion program for the DUI. The client successfully completed the program and was able to have his DUI case dropped.
