All OVI/DUI defenses start with how and why you were stopped by the police. Our OVI/DUI law firm will uncover every detail, as a minor detail can make all the difference.

If the police did not have a 'reasonable and articulable' basis for stopping you, any evidence gathered must be suppressed, and the police will not have a case.

1. The Stop

2. The Field Sobriety Test

Our OVI/DUI defense lawyers will investigate how your field sobriety tests were administered. Strict procedures must be followed and many OVI/DUI cases are dropped based on how these tests were conducted.

Based on our experience and knowledge of OVI/DUI law, our law firm will let you know how strong of a factor your field sobriety test plays in your defense.

3. The Breathalyzer & Blood Testing

One of the most complex aspects of a OVI/DUI case involves evaluating breath and blood tests. There are a wide range of factors that can influence both the admissibility and accuracy of a breath or a blood test. In many instances the outcome of this evaluation will have a major impact on the strength of your defense.

If you have been charged with OVI/DUI you need lawyers that are experienced in interpreting the nuances of breath and blood testing. Don't risk your defense to an inexperienced lawyer, call us today.
