Law Office Of Patrick Silva - February 2018

Don’t Give Up Yet! ARRESTED FOR DUI? If you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence, it’s difficult to know where to turn. Besides the impending legal consequences of the arrest, you may be stigmatized by your friends and family, and struggling beneath the weight of this incredibly stressful situation. But there’s still hope. Though you may have been taken in, a DUI arrest is far from a conviction. Obviously, DUI charges are not to be taken lightly, but there are ways to contest them and fight for your right to due process. You won’t want to go at it alone, though. The best way to get through the complex and delicate legal process of contesting a DUI is to get an attorney on your side — preferably one with years of experience dealing specifically with DUI defense. With an expert in your corner, you can be sure that every potential avenue for your defense will be explored. Here are just a few ways attorneys can question the validity of your DUI arrest.

• There were potential technical issues with the breathalyzer or other device used to measure your BAC.

• The officer failed to inform you that you could refuse the breathalyzer test.

• There’s not enough evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were impaired at the time of arrest.

• The evidence fails to show that you were the actual driver of the vehicle at the time of arrest.

Police are typically quite thorough, but they make mistakes each and every day just like the rest of us, leading to false or contested DUI arrests. Such an arrest is certainly a jarring event in your life, but it shouldn’t lead you to throw up your hands and give up. Instead, contact the attorneys at the Law Office of Patrick Silva to ensure you get the best DUI defense in California.

• The police officer stopped you without a legally justifiable reason to do so.

• You were not read your Miranda rights.
