Defending Against DUI Charges

At Scheuerman Law, LLC, we understand the severity of DUI charges, and that's why we don't take your defense lightly. Our attorneys are detail-oriented and meticulous; they scrutinize every detail of a case, identifying if any irregularities occurred that may impact your situation. Through this, we aim to build a robust defense strategy to challenge the prosecution's claims against you.

Common issues we look for in DUI cases include:

• Issues with probable cause: The police must have a valid reason, or probable cause, to stop, detain, or arrest someone for DUI. If this requirement is not met, the case can be challenged.
• Mistakes in police procedure during the arrest: Law enforcement officers must follow strict procedures when making an arrest. Any deviation from these procedures can lead to the dismissal of the case.
• Improperly administered BAC tests: Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) tests must be administered correctly by trained individuals. Any errors in administration, storage, or analysis can jeopardize the test results' reliability and may be grounds for dismissal.
• Inaccurate field sobriety tests: These tests rely heavily on the officer's subjective interpretation and are notorious for their unreliability. They can be contested if not administered correctly.

By identifying these potential problems, we can work to challenge the charges against you more effectively. Trust us to leave no stone unturned in your defense.
