Examining All of the Issues in Detail
Pennsylvania DUI/DAI laws can seem deceptively simple. Mandatory minimum sentences and license suspension periods are based on the defendant's measured blood alcohol content (BAC), the presence of illegal drugs in his or her system, and any prior convictions. Because it all seems straightforward, some attorneys advertise for DUI cases, even though their legal focus is not criminal defense.
A lot more goes into a DUI/DAI case than most people realize. Not all tests are dependable, not all roadblocks are legal and not all evidence is what it seems to be.
The criminal defense attorneys at our firm are familiar with the standardized field sobriety tests developed by the National Highway Safety Administration. We can identify which of these are valid and whether the test was administered properly by the police who arrested you. We are also familiar with the proper administration of breathalyzer tests.
Accelerative Rehabilitative Disposition
If you are a first-time DUI/DAI offender, we will work hard to help you get into the Accelerative Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) program. As an alternative to trial, this intervention program is designed for non-violent offenders with no criminal record.
After completing the Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition program within 12 months, you will have no criminal conviction. The criminal defense attorneys may be able to expunge the arrest from your record.
