Potential Defenses for DUI / DWAI Charges

Many individuals who are charged with DUIs/DWAIs seem to think that there is no way around it, and that they must submit to the court’s will whether, they are innocent or guilty. The truth is, this is a criminal charge much like any other, and for the prosecution to successfully win their case, they need to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. It is the defense’s liberty to challenge the evidence against you and weaken the prosecution’s case.

Defenses for driving under the influence or while ability impaired could include:

• Challenging the arresting officer’s probable cause to investigate your possible impairment
• Challenging the administration of the sobriety tests you took roadside
• Challenging the results of the blood or breath devices used to measure your intoxication
• Challenging the prosecution in their certainty that it was you behind the wheel

These is not an exhaustive list of the potential defenses against your charge, but several steps can be taken to weaken the state’s case against you or begin negotiation of a “soft landing” in the event a plea bargain is the best decision in your case.
