Challenging the Traffic Stop

Did the officer have probable cause to pull you over? Without probable cause, evidence obtained through roadside sobriety tests, breath tests, and a search of your vehicle may be inadmissible in court and result in the dismissal of OWI charges.

Challenging the Evidence

Was the breath testing machine adequately calibrated before your breath test? Were you read your Miranda rights? We will thoroughly examine the prosecution’s evidence and ensure proper police procedure was followed before, during, and after your traffic stop.

Challenging the Circumstantial Evidence

Did the officers fabricate facts or get creative in filling in the details of what happened at the scene of your traffic stop? Does the prosecution’s case rely on subjective observations from officers unsubstantiated by dashboard or body camera footage?
