Driving Under the Influence - Impaired to the Slightest Degree

Whether arrested in Flagstaff, Coconino County, or somewhere else in Arizona for Driving Under the Influence - Impaired to the Slightest Degree (DUI/DWI), extreme DUI (.15 or .199), super extreme DUI (.20 BAC or higher), Aggravated DUI, DUI 2nd, or DUI drugs, the consequences of a conviction can be grave without proper legal representation to defend your case.  Any type of DUI may jeopardize one's driver's license, finances, and career, not to mention one's freedom.  Flagstaff criminal defense lawyer David G. Bednar is well-versed on the complexities of DUI defense and will challenge the prosecutor's evidence to minimize the defendant's criminal liability.     
 
Driving Under the Influence (DUI) defense is conducted on a case by case analysis and Flagstaff criminal attorney David G. Bednar and his staff have challenged such issues as:
 
1.  The legality of the traffic stop.
2.  The administration of the field sobriety exercises.
3.  The procedures followed in obtaining breath/blood samples from the DUI suspect?
4.  The client's right to counsel.
5.  The client's right to an independent test.
6.  Actual physical control of the vehicle.
7.  Refusal to blow.
8.  Admin Per Se.
 
These are just a few of the serious issues that arise in DUI/DWI (drunk driving) cases that may be pertinent to your case and require the best legal defense, including the NEW DUI PENALITIES EFFECIVE 1/1/2012).
