Numerous defenses exist, and we can help you raise them by asking some of the following questions: 1. Did the police officer legally stop you? 2. Were you properly advised of your rights? 3. Did the police officer have the authority to arrest you or issue a warrant? 4. Is the evidence sufficient for a conviction? 5. Was the equipment used by the police properly tested and calibrated? 6. Are all of your prior convictions valid? 7. Did the police officer follow proper procedures? 8. Does your evidence dispute the officer’s testimony? Other defenses to DUI/DWI, reckless driving , and other traffic charges may exist based on the facts of your case. We will dedicate ourselves to your case with the goal of defeating your charges and minimizing their impact on your life. That is our job.
