How We Fight Your DUI Charges

We don't simply "process" cases; we investigate them. Here are the primary pillars of a strong DUI defense:

1. Challenging the Legality of the Traffic Stop

The police cannot pull you over on a whim. They must have reasonable suspicion that a crime or traffic violation occurred. If an officer stopped you without a valid legal reason, any evidence they gathered afterward—including blood or breath samples—may be deemed inadmissible. We often see officers use generic descriptions like "watery eyes" to justify an arrest; we hold them to a higher standard of proof.

2. Attacking Field Sobriety Test (FST) Results

Tests like the "one-leg stand" or the "walk and turn" are designed for you to fail. They are highly subjective and can be impacted by:

Poor roadside lighting or uneven pavement.
Pre-existing medical conditions or physical injuries.
Natural nervousness or fatigue.
Lack of proper officer certification.

3. Forensic Accuracy & BAC Testing Errors

Breathalyzers and blood draws are not infallible. We investigate the "chain of custody" of your blood samples and the maintenance records of the breath machines used. If a machine wasn't calibrated correctly or a blood sample was mishandled, the results are unreliable.

4. Medical Defenses & False Positives

Specific health issues, such as Diabetes, GERD, or Keto diets, can cause your body to produce compounds that breathalyzers mistakenly identify as alcohol. We work with medical experts to determine if your physiology caused a falsely elevated BAC reading.
