DUI Defense Lawyer in Springfield
You need an aggressive DUI Defense Attorney
If you have been convicted of a DUI in Springfield, you need the assistance of a highly skilled and trained defense attorney that can represent you in a trial setting so as to challenge all possible evidence brought against you. The police report and the arresting officer will be the main findings of evidence brought against you. It is therefore imperative that this area of your arrest is carefully analyzed and reviewed for missing or incomplete information. In order to obtain some of these procedural errors, a strong defense attorney will ruthlessly cross-examine the police officer and find these errors. Various missing pieces of an investigation will sometimes be what is needed to have the case dismissed for something that was not done. A report or testimony that is lacking in important facts will make it more difficult for the Commonwealth to obtain a conviction against you.
Some Sample Police Report cross examination questions:
- Did you take notes in the field during the arrest?
- Was your report prepared after you decided to arrest my client on these charges or before?
- Are you trained to note all alleged signs and symptoms of alcohol consumption in your report?
- Do you consider yourself a professional in preparing police reports?
- Did you prepare a report in regards to this arrest?
- Was your report complete and accurate?
- Do you consider that the report you filled out was complete and accurate?
- Does your report contain all of the important facts pertaining to this arrest?
- Was your report prepared after the arrest?
Many police officers standardly make notations of common symptoms of drunk driving without any real detail in their report. Sometimes close questioning of these details will determine that the officer really didn't carefully observe the things he should have, and may not have even had probable cause to pull you over. It is the close questioning and cross-examination that can lead to reduction in charges or even a dismissal of your case.
