Don't plead guilty to drunk driving until you talk to an attorneyWhen determining the best way to approach the defense of your DUI, our lawyer will ask the following questions: Does the prosecutor have a case?You may think that if you were stopped for drunk driving and failed a blood or breath test, you may as well plead guilty. That is not necessarily so—your DUI defense lawyer will examine all police or highway patrol records and evidence to see if the prosecutors actually have a solid case against you. Should charges be reduced or dropped?Our lawyers are respected by prosecutors and judges in courts throughout the state of Washington, a relationship that often allows charges to be reduced or dropped, or allows us to negotiate a favorable sentencing option for our clients. Were you arrested on the basis of a breath test?There are so many problems with breath tests that some courts refuse to admit the test results as evidence in drunk-driving trials. Technical problems with the administration of the test, faulty equipment, or medical issues can affect the BAC reading. Our lawyers will examine the evidence and determine whether the evidence on which the DUI charges are based can be challenged either before you are charged or during a trial.
