Possible DUI Defense Strategies

There are many possible defense strategies available for fighting DUI charges. Some questions we can bring to the attention of the Court include:

• Did the police officer have probable cause to believe you were driving under the influence when he or she pulled you over?
• Did you take a field sobriety test? Were there any conditions or extenuating circumstances that could have caused you to fail?
• Did you take a breath test?  If so, did the officer administer the test properly?  Was the machine working properly? Did you have any physical ailments or conditions that could have caused an inaccurate reading? Was there any radio frequency interference?
• Did you take a blood test?  If so, was your test administered by a trained technician? Was any of the laboratory equipment contaminated? Did the testing equipment malfunction? Did you have a preexisting condition or illness that could have caused the results to be inaccurate?
