Phoenix DUI Defense Lawyer
Arizona is an implied consent state. By driving on the roads or carrying an Arizona driver's license, you consent to submit to blood, breath or urine tests if suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The refusal to take a test can result in the suspension of your license, even if you are an out-of-state visitor.
When you hire me to represent you in a DUI/DWI prosecution, I will fully investigate all the facts and evidence related to your arrest, including whether police had sufficient legal grounds to pull you over, to subject you to roadside testing, to arrest you for suspected DUI and to obtain your blood, breath or urine. I will look at the State's analysis of the scientific evidence and assist you in having the blood retested if the State has preserved a sufficient sample to do so and if it is in your interests to do so and challenge the State's case. I will conduct interviews of all necessary witnesses and raise whatever factual or legal issues that are presented by your specific case to be utilized in plea negotiation, evidentiary suppression hearings, or trial depending on which course of action is in your best interest.
As an attorney practicing criminal defense for the last 12 years in Maricopa County, I have established a reputation of being a knowledgable and formidable opponent in the litigation of misdemeanor and felony DUIs to the extent I receive referrals from police officers and judges when their friends and family members are in need of legal representation.
