In defending a criminal case of Driving under the Influence of Drugs, the Los Angeles DUI attorneys of Gurovich, Berk & Associates will office conduct a two-tier analysis of your case. First and foremost, our DUI defense attorneys must make sure that your constitutional rights were not violated in the course of your arrest. Specifically, we investigate whether the police did not violate your 4th and 5th Amendment rights. If such a violation occurred, the likelihood that your case is dismissed or reduced to a lower offence increases significantly. In conducting the case analysis, our DUI defense lawyers will find out whether the police had a valid constitutional reason to stop and search your vehicle. Also, our DUI defense lawyers will find out whether a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) examined you to determine if you were under the influence of a controlled substance. It is our job to verify what expertise an officer has in making a determination that a person is under the influence of a controlled substance. We will inquire whether the officer looked for objective physical signs of intoxication such as abnormal pulse rate or abnormal pupil dilation. On many occasions, what seems to be an objective sign of intoxication could be related to a medical condition or sever illness.
The second step in the analysis is to investigate the validity of the scientific evidence. Our Los Angeles DUI attorneys will conduct an investigation into whether the blood sample was accurately measured by the police. Due to improper use or negligent laboratory procedures, the results that the measuring devices the police use can prove unreliable results. All laboratory testing must be pursuant to Title 17 and our Los Angeles DUI Attorneys will evaluate every aspect of the laboratory testing on a particular blood or urine sample.
In dealing with a Los Angeles DUI case whether involving alcohol or controlled substances, you will need an experienced Los Angeles DUI attorney that will test the validity of the field sobriety tests and/or blood/breath tests in your case and work diligently to provide you with the best possible outcome of your Los Angeles DUI case.
