Harley Ives Gutin

Due to a misunderstanding and unfortunate chain of events I suddenly found myself in a really tough legal (criminal) spot. With the help of my wife I was lucky enough to find Harley and Steve. They worked as a team and resolved my issue quickly, non judgmentally, and at a reasonable cost. I could ...not have asked for more competent and professional representation or a better outcome. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone seeking quality legal services. Jeff M. - Cape Canaveral (Feb 2022)

My name is Jeff Friend and I was falsely arrested for DUI and Refusal to take a breath test. The State chose to separate the charges and take me to trial for the Refusal first believing it would be an easy win for the State. However, I retained Gutin and Wolverton and Attorney Stephen... Wolverton was my trial attorney. Attorney Wolverton aggressively crossed examined the arresting officer and gave a brilliant closing argument. The Jury came back with a NOT GUILTY verdict. What Stephen Wolverton argued was that there was no probable cause for my arrest so therefore that was no justification for the arresting officer to request a breath test. I do not know of any other Attorney/Law Firm that has been able to receive a NOT GUILTY from a jury on a Refusal charge!!!! Thank you Stephen Wolverton and Harley Gutin for representing me.

Hello, I just want to say Thanks so so much to Harley,Stephen and Staff. They always were there for me and would answer their telephone. I was arrested for 3rd. DUI conviction and had a ticket for failure to maintain lane. I refused to blow and the DMV took my license after 10 days. They filed an ...appeal for that and won the appeal. It took about 3 weeks for appeal hearing. So I was without a license for a few weeks then got it back. They still had to go to criminal court for me. 3 months later we went to court and I was only charged with failure to maintain lane. The DUI was dropped because no probable cause. And adjudication of guilt was withheld. So I did have to pay $161 for failure to maintain lane, $325 court cost and go to advanced driving school 12 hrs. for $100 . So my 3rd. conviction only cost me about $600 plus attorney fees. Which the attorney fees were very very reasonable. My 2nd. DUI cost me over $12,000 in attorney fees,fines,rehab,dui school,probation,car interlock,community service 100 hrs.M.A.D.D. awareness class. The third DUI you know the consequences a lot worse. This time the cost was only 1/3 amount and a lot better turn out. I was referred by my sister who is a court reporter in Orlando now and has worked in Brevard in the past. I can not thank the team at Gutin & Wolverton enough. They really saved me from a lot of troubles and pain. Thank you again Harley,Stephen and Staff. Sincerely, David
