Do you think the police officer did not properly administer the standard field sobriety tests?
If you think that the officer did not properly administer the field sobriety tests to you, contact one of our Aggravated DUI defense lawyers for a free initial consultation.
See our Field Sobriety Page for more information about the administration of field sobriety tests and how they can affect your case.
Did the officer have probable cause to pull your vehicle over?
One of the major issues in an Aggravated Driving Under the Influence case is why the officer pulled the vehicle over. Often times, the officer stops a vehicle because of an equipment violation such as a broken tail light. Our DUI Defense Attorneys are well versed in Aggravated (Felony) Driving Under the Influence cases and understand how police officers operate. We have successfully argued for our clients that there was no probable cause for the officer to pull the vehicle over and that there was no reason for the officer to reasonably believe that our client was under the influence.
