A Defense that Could Win Your DUI Case

If you’ve been arrested for a DUI, and you’re ready to fight against the charge, it stands to reason that you will need to have a good defense. The fact is: Nevada is not alone in being very strict when it comes to DUI charges, which is why you must have a strong defense to get potential penalties reduced or to have the case against you thrown out. Fortunately, there probably are a number of defenses that might apply to your situation, but it’s up to you to talk with a competent Las Vegas DUI attorney to determine which one is right for you.

Here are some defenses that Las Vegas DUI attorneys might be able to provide. Many of the best options center around extenuating medical circumstances, such as gastric reflux, dentistry work, various diseases, sicknesses, attention deficit disorder, menstruation, or pre-existing afflictions. How do these medical conditions and ailments impact your ability to defend yourself in a DUI situation? The important thing is that they can skew the accuracy of various sobriety tests, including the Breathalyzer. While there’s no leeway if you’re arrested for a DUI with a BAC of .08 or higher, if the accuracy of that reading is called into question, it can give you the edge you need to prevail in a court case against you. It all comes down to getting help from a competent Las Vegas DUI attorney.
