College Crimes
College Student Laws
As a college student you enter a different phase of your life, juggling studies and extra curricular activities with new found independence and broadened opportunities. You strive to excel in your academic pursuits, but you also crave new experiences and want to have fun with your widening circle of friends.
However, experience often comes with a price tag, and the results can have a direct impact on your college career. A night of binging or a hazing that went too far may not only result in college disciplinary hearings, but possible jail time as well. If you are a student who has been pulled over for drunk driving or arrested for committing a violent crime such as robbery or assault, contact the law offices of R. Timothy Jansen, P.A. in Tallahassee, Florida today.
You have been out partying with your friends, or have hit the bar after a game. You feel great – the euphoric mix of alcohol and the energy of your friends is invigorating. At the end of the night, you still are a bit buzzed but feel well enough to drive home – after all, you have always held your liquor well.
But your night comes to a stand still when you see the flashing lights of a squad car behind you or, worse yet, you feel the impact of your car hitting another driver after you ran that red light.

Timothy Jansen, P.A., our lawyers know the detrimental effect a DUI can have on your driving and academic record and can offer you advice and support that can help you make a fresh start.
