Got my license back and saved my career because of this amazing law firm!

To give a brief overview i am being charged with a refusal to DUI, because i refused the breathalyzer test. I also moved here from New York a year ago and had still not gotten around to getting a Florida Driver's License when i was stopped by the Police. I was pulled over on the side of the road, not... driving my vehicle, and lets just say it was the night the Tampa Bay Lightning were playing the New York Rangers and i am a big hockey fan....so i refused a breathalyzer which is suppose to be an AUTOMATIC SUSPENSION OF LICENSE FOR 1 YEAR! I was very worried and was not sure what to do when i heard this information so i was gratefully put in touch with Musca Law firm and who handled the suspension and DMV side of my case was Rebecca. It was about 30 days after the incident and let me just say Rebecca pulled off a miracle. I was not sure what i should do if i should fight my license suspension and Rebecca gave me the two options, and one was a very risky one. I...being a risk taker and fighter wanted to fight the suspension and once i came to a decision Rebecca hit the ground running. Let me just say my experience with Rebecca was amazing and she is the reason why i have my license back. It was a very easy quick process for me as Rebecca put all the hard work in. Will recommend this law firm to anybody and Thank you again Rebecca for getting me full license privileges and pulling off a miracle!

Amazing!

Rebecca is fantastic! She got the DMV to drop the license suspension within a week of my arrest. She received the report from the police and within the hour she was calling to say that I could go get my duplicate license. The suspension was dropped and I had full driving privileges again. I never ev...en needed a hardship license.

“My license was suspended for not submitting enough air for the breath test but Attorney Sonalia won my DMV hearing!”

I can highly recommend Rebecca Sonalia as an attorney for DUI/DMV case I was pulled over and arrested in Marathon Fl on a Friday night. Saturday I got in touch With John Musca of Musca Law. He personally answered his cell phone on a Saturday And made me feel very confident that his team could hand...le the case . He explained that I actually had two cases, one a criminal DUI and the other a civil DMV case. John told me Rebecca Sonalia would handle the DMV portion. My first contact with Rebecca was the following Monday on a conference call . She was very informative and extremely knowledgable about the process and conveyed this to me so as to make sure I knew how we were to proceed. The DMV was late getting information to Rebecca so she did not have time to subpoena the arresting officer nor the technician . After reviewing the arrest package she made the decision to proceed with the hearing as scheduled. She objected to the arrest due to many factors. She also filed several motions that were to my benefit to the point that the State of Fl had no case at all. She won the hearing and got my drivers license back. Throughout the entire process she stayed in constant communication with me via email and phone. Her professionalism and attitude are to be commended. Put Musca Law on speed dial in case this ever to you.

Simply Amazing

I am very satisfied with Rebecca's service. Through out the DMV process she was very professional and kept me informed of all the details. I won a favorable judgement from the DMV and my full driving privileges have been reinstated! I couldn't have found a better or more knowledgeable attorney to hel...p me through this.
