What to Do if You Blew an .08... Or a .14... Or a .23...
Most New Jersey DUI cases are based on a breath test that indicates a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 percent or higher - whether or not you were actually impaired. Usually, the most effective defense in a DUI case supported by BAC evidence is to show that there were problems with the Breathalyzer or Alcotest apparatus, procedures or operator.
To learn how an experienced criminal defense lawyer can attack breath or blood test evidence in a DUI case, contact the law firm of Fred Rabinowitz, Attorney at Law in Clifton. Providing DUI defense throughout New Jersey including Passaic County, Bergen County and Essex County.
Close analysis of your blood or breath test data can establish your defense
There are a lot of things that can go wrong with a Breathalyzer or Alcotest. Our job is to use our experience with these machines to spot the errors in your case.
The machine might not have been properly calibrated. It might not have been properly maintained. Critical parts might not have been replaced within their useful service period. The operator might have lacked the necessary certification. Certain data or indicators of reliability, such as dates, times or signatures, might be missing from the record of the test. We know how to look for indicators of unreliability in your test results in order to attack the evidence against you in court.
Undermining the BAC evidence can help you in many ways
Even if a technical or procedural flaw in your breath or blood test won't support a finding of not guilty in your case, it will still help your defense and could result in lighter penalties. The judge can take the BAC into account in determining the length of your suspension, the amount of your fine, or even the length of a jail sentence in a repeat DUI case.
Fred Rabinowitz has 30 years of trial experience and knows how to build and present an effective defense in court. Because there is practically no opportunity to compromise New Jersey DUI cases through plea negotiations, his track record of skillful representation in court can represent an important advantage for you.
