How Can We Help?
Leveraging Former Prosecutorial Insight to Defend Your Liberty
Attorney Jonathan Blecher spent years working as an Assistant State Attorney in Miami-Dade County. Because he has sat on both sides of the courtroom, our lawyer understands how the state evaluates files, prepares witnesses, and decides which cases to push to trial versus which ones to settle. That insider experience provides our clients with a distinct advantage, and we put it to work for you from day one.
Rather than waiting for your first court date, we audit police reports, breathalyzer maintenance logs, and witness statements to spot procedural errors or constitutional violations. By identifying weaknesses in the state’s case early on, we negotiate from a position of strength and advocate for the best possible outcomes for our clients.
Over 3,000 DUI Cases Defended in South Florida
When you’re facing a drunk driving charge, experience matters. Because DUI charges involve complex chemical testing and strict law enforcement protocols, you need a legal advocate who has seen it all.

Jonathan Blecher is a miracle worker. I was arrested for a DUI in January 2025, did not blow, and was in the middle of a trauma blackout wherein I wasn’t the most pleasant person with the police. The case would have probably lost at trial.
I was defending myself, and Jonathan reached out when I contacted several referral services. (The other attorney who contacted me through the referral service was a jerk from Sarasota who belittled me and tried pressuring me to give him upwards of $8,500)
Although climbing Everest might have been easier than convincing a jury this arse was actually innocent- we decided to give it a shot.
For a very reasonable fee, Jonathan was able to get the charge reduced to a reckless, 6 mo probation, and no license resuspension. I am a tough pill to swallow at times, but Jonathan stuck with me and made a miracle happen. He even quipped that he’s never had a client quite like me.
Jonathan is professional and has the experience of being a past ASA.
