Services
DUI Defense
Our DUI defense service challenges blood alcohol evidence, field sobriety tests, and procedural violations. We leverage forensic expertise to identify flawed testing methods and constitutional breaches, aiming to reduce charges or secure dismissals. With Arizona's strict DUI laws, our former prosecutor's insight helps navigate complex legal standards while protecting driving privileges and minimizing penalties.
Vehicular Manslaughter
We defend against vehicular manslaughter charges by scrutinizing accident reconstructions, toxicology reports, and witness statements. Our approach challenges prosecution evidence while addressing mitigating circumstances. With potential penalties including prison time, our team focuses on creating reasonable doubt through expert forensic analysis and strategic courtroom representation tailored to Arizona's vehicular crime statutes.
Felony DUI
Our felony DUI defense targets repeat offense charges by examining prior conviction validity and evidence collection procedures. We challenge enhanced penalties through constitutional arguments and forensic challenges, focusing on procedural errors during arrests. Our strategy includes negotiating alternative sentencing options while maintaining aggressive courtroom representation to protect clients' futures.
Aggravated DUI
We defend aggravated DUI charges involving factors like extreme BAC levels, minor passengers, or license suspensions. Our approach examines breathalyzer calibration records, officer training documentation, and legal justification for enhanced charges. We focus on reducing mandatory minimum sentences through evidence suppression and alternative interpretation of aggravating circumstances under Arizona law.
Drug DUI
Our drug DUI defense challenges field sobriety test reliability and drug recognition expert methodologies. We analyze blood test chain-of-custody records and lab analysis procedures to identify procedural flaws. With Arizona's zero-tolerance drug policies, our team focuses on creating reasonable doubt about impairment through toxicology experts and alternative explanations for observed behaviors.
