Driving Under the Influence

Whether arrested in Flagstaff for Driving Under the Influence (DUI/DWI), an extreme DUI (.15 or .199), a super extreme DUI (.20 BAC or higher), a DUI 2nd or an Aggravated DUI, the consequences of a conviction can be grave without proper criminal legal representation.  Any type of DUI may jeopardize one's driver's license, finances, and career, not to mention one's freedom.  Flagstaff criminal defense attorney David G. Bednar is well-versed on the complexities of DUI defense and will work hard to challenge the State's evidence and minimize the defendant's criminal liability. 
 
Driving Under the Influence (DUI) defense is conducted on a case by case analysis and criminal attorney David G. Bednar has 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.
 
These are just a few of the serious issues that arise in DUI/DWI (drunk driving) cases that may be pertinent to your case.
 
Arizona MVD IMPLICATIONS
