How a defense can help

There are some defenses that are available to help you out. First, the defense can work to overthrow the validity of any breathalyzer tests that were given based on whether the officer is certified to give them or if the machine is properly working. The defense can also help to examine the case to see if any other violations occurred on the part of the courts of the police officer in attendance. We will also work to prepare your case to go to trial and to get the most favorable outcome possible for you.
