DUI Defense Attorney

Jason Kaufman is an Amazing Attorney!! He was referred to me by family members who have been using him for various reasons for many years of their legal issues with the most outstanding results. He has consistently delivered on various legal issues time & time again. I was nervous & scared until I me...t Jason, he laid everything in his plan out and made sure I understood 100% and took care of everything from there. Jason Kaufman is and always will be our friends, family and my Attorney for life!! Thank you Jason!! I appreciate you!!

Best in Broward!

Jason is an extremely knowledgeable legal professional with an effective process from start to finish. People make mistakes. I referred a close friend to Jason in their time of need after a DUI and he moved things along much faster than we could have anticipated.

Great defense Lawyer

I liked Mr.Kaufman as he helped me with a fraudulent domestic violence case in south Florida while I was handling a Family court case in North Florida. He was able to get the injunction dropped against me in south Florida and he offered A+ service as well as explaining things to me. I would recommend... him to anyone in South Florida.

Great Attorney and I am Very Grateful

I hired Jason to defend me on a Battery charge which I was accused of out of spite by someone. I was in a horrible situation. Like many of you out there, I have a good life, good job, and this situation scared the heck out of me. I went online to try and look at some good reviews for a defense att...orney and found Jason. I went to his office and he reassured me, immediately found a defense approach and attacked the charge with this approach. The State Attorney didn't even bother bringing the charges to trial because they knew they weren't going to win. All I can say is we won. We won. Thank you Jason. I feel like you saved my life.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
