Challenging BAC Evidence in Montgomery DWI Cases

Proven Results from Our Montgomery County DWI Lawyer

When being arrested for DWI, most often a Blood Alcohol Concentration breath test is administered. There are a variety of rules and procedures which the police must follow when giving such a BAC test to a suspect arrested for driving while intoxicated. Many times these procedures are not followed to the letter of the law.

When police fail to properly administer the BAC test, this gives rise to an opportunity to challenge the results of the breath test in court, and have the evidence removed or excluded from the case entirely. In his practice defending drivers of DWI, Douglas W. Atkinson, Attorney at Law has successfully argued to exclude from evidence BAC tests in dozens of cases in Montgomery County.

Challenging DWI Evidence in Montgomery County: Blood Alcohol Levels

Although the exclusion of BAC evidence is not always a guarantee that your charges will be dropped entirely, it is almost certain that without BAC evidence, you will be acquitted of the charge of DWI. As the centerpiece of the prosecution's case against you, the results of your BAC breath test can be crucial to the outcome of your case.

An experienced DWI attorney such as Doug Atkinson can attack the results of the test if:

• The BAC test was not administered within a certain period of time after you are stopped
• The equipment used to take the test was faulty or not properly maintained
• The results were improperly handled while awaiting your hearing in court

The exclusion of evidence in a DWI case usually results in the reduction of charges to a lesser offense or a dismissal.
