A Pilot’s Perspective on Legal Representation

My name is Steven F. Groce, and as a Commercial Pilot and DWI and DUI attorney, I recognize the high standards required in aviation. Flying demands precision and focus; however, even the best may find themselves in legal difficulties. I’m here to guide you through the legal landscape, offering comprehensive defense against DWI and DUI charges that can jeopardize your career as a pilot.

Understanding FAA Regulations

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has stringent regulations regarding alcohol and drug use for pilots. Violations can lead to severe penalties, including the loss of your pilot certificate. It is critical for pilots to be aware of these regulations, as even seemingly minor infractions can have dire consequences. As your DWI lawyer, I will ensure you understand these rules and work tirelessly to protect your flying privileges.

Key FAA Regulations Include:

  • Fitness for Flight: Pilots must refrain from flying within 8 hours of consuming alcohol and maintain a blood alcohol content (BAC) below 0.04%.
  • Chemical Testing: Upon request by law enforcement, pilots must submit to alcohol testing within a set timeframe. Refusal can lead to serious repercussions.
  • Reporting Requirements: Failing to report any DWI or DUI incidents to the FAA can result in penalties that may affect your ability to operate an aircraft.

  • Confidential Consultation: I prioritize your privacy and provide personalized attention to your case.
