Do I have a right to an attorney when I am stopped by an officer and asked to take a field sobriety test in Florida? | Amir Ladan | The Ladan Law Firm, P.A. | Over 30 Years of Combined Experience | Contact Us | 407-657-1555 | http://www.ladanlaw.com/ | [email protected] | 121 S Orange Ave #1420 Orlando, FL 32801




If you're stopped by law enforcement and are being investigated for DUI, you're not entitled to an attorney for the purposes of with him about a field sobriety exercise. The reason being is field sobriety exercises or FSEs are not considered conversation. They're not questions. It's not that type of conduct that would be protected under Miranda warning might protect you under. They're not asking you to do anything that will be verbal in nature such that it would trigger the right to an attorney so no, you can't get an attorney to consult with your about field sobriety exercises. For that reason, often times, we suggest you consider refusing to submit yourself to field sobriety exercises rather than potentially incriminate yourself with your performance.
