The Drunk Driving Defense Process
People tend to focus on the number from the Intoxilyzer machine, but there is so much more to DUI defense than building a case around a client's BAC. We will investigate the facts of your case and ask crucial questions surrounding the charges against you, including:
- Was the traffic stop legal?
- Was there probable cause for your arrest?
- Was your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) measured correctly?
- Was the measurement equipment working properly?
- Were blood samples handled properly?
- Could medical factors have affected the BAC reading?
Mr. Nourse does not just "plead out" a DUI/DWI case. He will size up any offer made by the prosecutor and advise you if the offer is good, or if a trial would be a better option for you.
