There are many ways that a DUI charge may be challenged. Your DUI Arrest may be challenged if the officer did not have probable cause to arrest you. If you were not given your Miranda Warnings, we could move to suppress evidence that was gathered in violation of your Miranda rights. You may challenge the accuracy of the prosecutions blood alcohol testing by questioning the maintenance and functionality of the breathalyzers, or contest the procedures used in obtaining, labeling, sealing, storing and offering the evidence into trial. Most DUI Cases rely largely on the testimony of the arresting officer.
