Case Dismissed!
Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers put the very best efforts
into every case. Because of this, our clients have been very pleased
with the results. Dismissals are rare in DUI cases, and Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers
cannot and will not promise to achieve the same result in your case.
Here are some cases in recent months for which she won dismissals:
Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers won outright dismissal of a DUI charge
where the client had a breath test result of .18 and .19 on the
BAC DataMaster. This is over twice the legal limit in Washington.
Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers won by fighting to obtain a videotape. The tape clearly
showed the client was not at all impaired or intoxicated, and also
showed that the officer failed to follow procedures in administering
the breath test. How can the breath test result be explained? These
machines are not infallible! Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers believes the client's
diet caused her to emit a substance on her breath, ketone, which
the machine mistakenly identified as alcohol.
Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers won another outright dismissal in a
recent case. The client had been involved in a roll-over accident
and was thrown from the vehicle. When police arrived at the scene,
the client was over a mile away, walking home. At a motion to dismiss,
Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers prevailed, successfully arguing that the state had
insufficient evidence to prove that her client had been both driving
and under the influence at the time of the accident.
A client was pulled over because of a faulty headlight.
The officer had her immediately step from the vehicle and provide
a portable breath test sample. No other field sobriety tests were
given before she was placed under arrest. Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers successfully
argued that the officer lacked probable cause for the arrest, and
the case was dismissed.
A young man was charged with DUI and Hit and Run.
His vehicle was reported to have been abandoned after a collision
with a mailbox. Police found the young man several yards away, asleep.
He maintained his innocence, insisting he had allowed someone he
met at the bar that night drive his car while he slept in the back
seat. All the client could remember was the person's first name,
and efforts to locate the person were unsuccessful. The prosecutor
believed the young man was lying. However, thorough investigation
resulted in the dismissal of the Hit and Run charge when Our Washington DUI/DWI Lawyers
obtained the 911 recording reporting the collision. On the tape,
a woman reported seeing more than one person at the vehicle at the
time of the collision. The DUI charge was reduced to Negligent Driving
and although the client had a good chance of winning acquittal at
trial, he decided to accept the offer to reduce the charge.
