Can I Challenge my DUI Charges?
Even if a breathalyzer shows .08 BAC at the time of your arrest, that does not mean you are guilty. You have the right to fight your charges and seek to have them either dropped or reduced. It is crucial that you act quickly, as your driving privileges are on the line as well. You will need to schedule a DMV hearing within just a few days of your arrest in order to protect your license. This is separate from your criminal hearing, which will require much more skill and legal insight.
A skilled Compton DUI attorney can utilize the following defenses:
- An officer violated your rights in some way
- There was no reasonable cause to pull you over
- The chemical test was incorrect or inaccurate
- A physical disability prevented you from performing a field sobriety test
- The breathalyzer was not calibrated correctly
No matter what the details of your case are, you can count on the Law Office of James Mendez to provide tough and determined legal defense.
