DUI Defenses
Probable Cause
Did the law enforcement agent who arrested you have probable cause to stop you, detain you and arrest you? If he or she did not, some or all of the evidence against you in your drunk driving case could be suppressed. Additionally, if the arresting officer did not follow proper and legal procedure when arresting you, the charges against you could be dismissed.
Miranda Rights
If your Miranda rights were not read to you or if they were not given to you at the correct time, anything you said that could have been used as incriminating evidence or evidence against you could be suppressed.
BAC (blood alcohol concentration)
If the test administered to you was conducted improperly in any way, your attorney can use that information to defend you or even get your charges dismissed. Calibration, maintenance, environmental conditions and other factors can cause incorrect results in a breath test. Additionally, if the testing or administration of the test did not comply with existing laws, that can add to your defense.
Implied Consent Warnings
If you were not advised on the extent of the consequences you could face if you refused to take a breath or blood test, your defense could be enhanced.
