San Fernando Valley DUI Defense Lawyer
What DUI Defenses Can Be Used?
When you are arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in California, you are entering a serious situation which most people find intimidating and confusing. Even though you were arrested and charged, our legal system still allows for you to be innocent until proven guilty, and so you still have a chance to fight your charges and win. With the help of the Law Offices of Jeffrey S. Vallens, our experienced DUI Defense attorney can provide you with an aggressive defense against your charges.
There are many defense tactics familiar to our office that will be used to help avoid the suspension of your license and a DUI conviction. Some of the main areas to bring into question include:
- What was the probable cause the police officer listed when deciding to pull you over
- Was the arrest unlawfully made
- Were the field sobriety tests administered per exact standard
- Was the breathalyzer test administered properly
- Has the breathalyzer machine been properly maintained
- Do you have any medical conditions which could affect the results
Because there has to have been a justifiable reason for a traffic stop, if there wasn't one, our firm can challenge the entire basis for you being pulled over in the first place. Administering any tests that will determine your blood alcohol content is one of the main pieces of evidence used against you. If it can be shown that the officer failed to follow exact protocol when testing, or if the breathalyzer machine had not been properly maintained, again the findings of the test would be deemed invalid. Having a medical condition that could affect the outcome of the tests, such as allergies, blood insulin levels due to an underlying condition, and other factors, could effectively cause a false reading.
With our skilled and knowledgeable staff, we will skillfully defend you during the course of your DMV Hearing as well as your criminal DUI case.
