One small error in the breathalyzer test procedure can mean the difference between a conviction and acquittal.

With our help, individuals across the nation have accessed effective defenses. If you have questions or need to book an appointment, (512) 218-9587 is your direct line to assistance.

Breathalyzer tests can be impacted by various factors. From calibration issues to environmental influences, these devices require meticulous oversight to ensure accurate readings. We have identified issues where even the smallest oversight can lead to a false positive, which can be deeply concerning for people facing DUI charges.

In calibration, if the device is not regularly and correctly calibrated, the BAC readings may not reflect the true level of alcohol in one's system. It's vital for these devices to undergo routine checks, which if neglected, means the evidence collected is not reliable.

When you're stopped for a suspected DUI, it's crucial to understand your rights. You have the option to politely refuse a breathalyzer test, although this may have legal consequences depending on your state. Having knowledge of the law and the potential pitfalls of breathalyzer tests can significantly impact the outcome of your case.

An experienced attorney from our team will guide you through the legal implications of breathalyzer tests and help you make informed decisions. By exploring all possible defenses, our goal is to protect your rights and present the best possible case on your behalf.

Many people believe that breathalyzer tests are conclusive evidence of impairment. However, this is a common misconception. Non-alcoholic substances, such as certain medications or mouthwash, can trigger the sensors in these devices, leading to inflated BAC readings.

It's important to challenge any misconceptions and understand that breathalyzer results are not the final say. With guidance from our legal team, you can confront these errors and work towards a fair assessment of the situation.

Strict protocols govern the use of breathalyzer tests. When law enforcement officers deviate from these established procedures, the validity of test results comes into question. At Davis, Angela Aty, we uncover procedural mistakes and demonstrate how they may affect your case.

It's crucial to recognize that human error can and does occur. Even a seasoned professional may inadvertently commit errors during a breathalyzer test administration. These errors can be a significant advantage in your defense strategy, thanks to our legal team's expertise.

An operator's lack of training or failure to follow guidelines can have serious consequences on breathalyzer test outcomes. In many cases, we've discovered that errors such as improper administration or failure to observe the subject can skew results, offering a strong defense for our clients.

Our team meticulously reviews procedural details to identify any deviations from the norm, always aiming to protect our clients' interests. We take pride in our ability to uncover even the most minor errors that could make a substantial difference in a DUI case.

The technology behind breathalyzer tests is not perfect. Issues such as inadequate maintenance, software glitches, or even hardware malfunctions can lead to incorrect readings. Accurate diagnosis of such flaws is within our expertise, and often it proves instrumental in disrupting the prosecution's case.

A diligent defense by our attorneys can cast doubt on the reliability of the breathalyzer device used in your case. This approach may help in negotiating reduced charges or even complete dismissal, emphasizing the importance of a thorough defense strategy.

There are specified steps that must be adhered to in breathalyzer test administration. When these steps are not followed, the accuracy of the readings can be compromised:

  • A 15- to 20-minute observation period before administering the test to ensure no ingested substances affect the result.
  • Conducting multiple tests to confirm the consistency of BAC readings.
  • Cleaning and recalibrating the machine after each test to prevent residual alcohol from affecting subsequent tests.

Our attorneys are well-acquainted with these guidelines and are committed to ensuring that they are strictly enforced in every case we handle. We recognize the effect that any deviation might have on our clients and are rigorous in our examination of the procedures surrounding your test.

Mounting a tactical defense against DUI charges often centers on challenging breathalyzer evidence. At Davis, Angela Aty, we use a multifaceted approach tailored to the individual circumstances of each case.

Our attorneys have an extensive record of successfully contesting DUI charges, especially when it comes to disputing breathalyzer results. We delve into the technical aspects of the testing process and identify any aspects that can be legally contested, always working in your best interest.

Certain conditions can mimic the effects of alcohol or interfere with breathalyzer results, leading to erroneously high BAC levels. Conditions such as acid reflux, diabetes, and even dietary choices can significantly influence the outcome of a breathalyzer test.

Our legal team is skilled in pinpointing such conditions and presenting alternative explanations for disputed BAC readings. Recognizing these underlying factors can alter the course of a DUI case, preventing unjust outcomes.

In DUI cases, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution. They must demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt that you were driving under the influence. Breathalyzer tests are often critical evidence in these cases, but if we can demonstrate inaccuracies or errors, that evidence may be considered inadmissible or unreliable in court.

By raising questions about the reliability of the breathalyzer test, our attorneys can undermine the prosecution's case and increase the chances of a favorable verdict. We stand firmly by the principle that everyone deserves a fair trial and a chance to present their defense vigorously.

Challenging breathalyzer test results takes precision and legal acumen. Our firm has a track record of successfully disputing the accuracy of these tests through several tactics, including:

  • Scrutinizing the maintenance and calibration records of the breathalyzer device.
  • Questioning the training and conduct of the administering officer.
  • Presenting medical or scientific evidence that undermines the test's validity.

With our diligent approach, we've been able to achieve significant victories for our clients. We take pride in our attention to detail and dedication to justice, which is reflected in the outcomes of the cases we take on.
