Subsequent to graduating from law school, Tim was sworn in as a Pinellas County Assistant State Attorney.

As a prosecutor, Tim learned street-level DUI enforcement tactics from the inside.  He quickly rose through the ranks in the State Attorney’s office and was selected to run the North County Traffic court division.

However, his training did not end there.  He went on to achieve state inspector certification necessary to review the maintenance and calibration of breath testing machines before they can become legally employed by a police department to gather evidence in DUI cases.

Tim received a scholarship from the University of North Florida to attend the “DUI Drug Recognition Expert Program.” There, he studied alongside DUI Squad Officers in the complex area of Drug-Impaired Driver detection. Tim’s focus and concentration in the area of DUI and criminal law did not go unnoticed in the legal community.

In that capacity, he taught prosecutors from across the State on how to most effectively prosecute DUI cases. As a DUI Defense attorney, Tim has handled hundreds of DUI offenses.
