Anyone who has been involved in contesting an administrative driver’s license suspension at a DUI Formal Review Hearing with the Florida Department of Highway Safety Motor Vehicles, knows just how hard it can be to get a Hearing Officer to scrutinize the law enforcement officer’s reports or testimony – even in the face of a videotape that contradicts the officer. In Wiggins v. D.H.S.M.V., a Hearing Officer refused to invalidate an administrative license suspension in just such a scenario. The Florida Supreme Court ruled that an appellate court is not bound, even within the confines of a de novo review standard, to accept the testimony and reports of a law enforcement officer as competent, substantial evidence sufficient to support an administrative suspension, when objective videotape evidence exists contradicting the law enforcement officer’s version of events.

We Fight Hard For Your Rights
From start to the now conclusion of this, Longwell's team has been THE BEST

If you’re in need of an AMAZING lawyer to handle your legal troubles, look no further. Longwell Lawyers are the absolute BEST.

My husband needed an attorney after he found himself in trouble and we were directed to Longwell after a family member had seen a news report featuring them. From the first call, and being assigned to Ms. Abraham as a client, to speaking with her and hearing, just how dedicated she is to achieving a positive outcome for her clients we knew he was in good hands. She called us just a couple of days before Thanksgiving and gave us the greatest gift..the news that the case was dropped, there was no longer need to worry from day to day about what was going to happen. From start to the now conclusion of this, Longwell’s team has been THE BEST. Easy to contact, easy to talk to, and makes you feel at ease in situation that you would hope to never find yourself in, but unfortunately do sometimes in life. Suzanne, Carmen N. and Muna as well as the rest of the team at Longwell Lawyers are the greatest. Top flight lawyers on the world in our book!!!

Thank you so much for everything!!!

They Change Lives

Never did I think I was going to get divorced. The moment it happened was very stressful and emotionally hard. I went online read so many positive reviews and decided to schedule a consult.

The day I met with Kay-Ann and Valeria, I felt peace and felt like I had known them for a long time. They were both very professional, compassionate, knowledgeable and hardworking. Kay-Ann and Valeria were responsive and addressed all my concerns; Kay-Ann and Valeria ensured were able to get my uncontested case done in less than 3 months. They were always available to answer my emails and calls. They walked me through the entire process with ease. I am so thankful they worked very hard and achieved justice for my case and got me divorced in less than 3 months. Divorce is difficult to go through but having the right people to help you through the legal process is priceless.
