Whether it’s challenging faulty breathalyzer results or dismantling weak prosecutions, the Kessler Law Firm will fight for you when your future is on the line.
All lawyers are not the same. You might think that any given criminal defense attorney is likely to be competent and knowledgeable when it comes to representing clients facing threats to their drivers’ licenses and futures, but that’s just not so. A Board Certified attorney, however, is a practitioner who goes above and beyond to prove their expertise and dedication in their chosen practice area. As a lawyer designated by The Florida Bar as a Board Certified Criminal Trial Specialist, Michael is respected by his peers and prosecutors alike and trusted by the courts as a thorough and experienced advocate and defender.
The Kessler Law Firm has successfully handled hundreds of cases throughout Florida, achieving dismissals or reduced charges for many of our clients. By hiring an experienced criminal defense attorney with a proven track record, you can have peace of mind about your future during this trying time. As an experienced Florida DUI lawyer, Michael Kessler is skilled at challenging DUI test results. Breath, blood, and chemical tests can be faulty, and we can strategize your defense to challenge the results.
As a longtime member of the legal community on Florida’s Treasure Coast, Michael’s familiarity with the region’s courts, judges, and government lawyers, as well as local customs and procedures, makes him a formidable advocate for his clients in Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie, Vero Beach, Sebastian, Stuart, and the surrounding areas in southern Florida.
At Kessler Law Firm, you’re not just another case with a number assigned to it. Every case has a human being with unique circumstances behind it and this attitude is reflected in our representation. Client-focused advocacy is how we practice and adamantly fight for your rights.
Practice Areas
As an experienced Florida DUI lawyer, the Kessler Law Firm represents clients with DUI charges. This includes driving while impaired, driving with an unlawful blood or breath alcohol level (DUBAL), reckless driving, vehicular homicide and dui manslaughter charges, and more. The chemical tests used by the police are not foolproof, and the results can be challenged. So, too, can the so-called field sobriety exercises, which are not scientific or reliable as evidence.
The Kessler Law Firm does not defend only DUI cases. Michael Kessler brings to the table vast experience in the defense of all areas of criminal law, from murder to bar fights and domestic violence, from drugs to alleged sex crimes, from fraud to public corruption, from firearms and other weapons charges to accusations of organized crime and trafficking.
Additionally, we also offer comprehensive representation for professional license defense, criminal court appeals, and all areas of post-conviction relief.
