Defense Strategies for OUI Charges

Our defenses against your OUI Charges

If you have been charged with an OUI in Springfield, you need a good lawyer who has proven defenses he can use to defend you.  Many of these defenses can lead to lesser charges or dismissal.  We will follow up on all opportunities to dispute evidence and aggressively defend you against drunk driving charges.  Some proven and successful methods to challenge evidence against you are:

• If stopped at a sobriety checkpoint, did the police officer follow the strict set of guidelines when you were pulled over?  Failure to follow the protocols can cause any evidence following a stop to be inadmissible.;
• Was there probable cause to stop you?  We will question this thoroughly;
• How carefully and exactly were field sobriety tests conducted? We thoroughly question every aspect of this;
• We will question whether you were driving  on a public roadway and were you driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs;
• Breathalyzer test results must be presented by expert testimony showing the relationship between the test results and intoxication of the driver;
• The fact that you might have refused to take the breathalyzer test cannot be brought up by the District Attorney at trial;
• We use scientific experts to challenge breathalyzer test results;
• We will pull all documentation existing for maintenance on the breathalyzer machines that was used on you;
• We will determine whether the breathalyzer was used properly, findings recorded accurately and whether the officer involved trained in its operation;
• Did the officer complete a 15-minute observation period prior to the breath test?
