What Are Your Chances of Winning Your DUI Case?

In DUI cases, the burden of proof is on the prosecution to prove you were drinking and driving, and we'll work diligently to make sure it stays there. If they can't prove every part of their case, you win. It's that simple. In building our case, we will ask questions such as:

  • Did the police use too much subjective judgment in the field sobriety test?
  • Did they use an Intoxilyzer 8000 or Breathalyzer?
  • Did they have probable cause to stop you in the first place?
  • Are you willing to enter counseling or an alcohol education program?
  • Do you have multiple offenses on your record?

If there are any cracks in the prosecution's case, we will do everything in our power to exploit them to your benefit, helping you limit your exposure to the serious consequences of a DUI conviction.
