Los Angeles DUI Defense Attorneys

Did you take a breathalyzer test and fail? Did you refuse a breath test? Whatever the particular situation, a Los Angeles DUI attorney at our firm may be able to help you. We recommend that you contact us for a free DUI case evaluation so we can discuss your charges and what we can do to defend your rights.

Breathalyzer Tests and Your BAC

Breathalyzer tests are known for their tendency to show false readings of a driver’s BAC (blood alcohol concentration).  A DUI defense lawyer can attack the credibility of a breath test in a number of ways, although this will depend upon the particular case. Specific procedures must be followed in administering a breath test, and calibrating and maintaining a breathalyzer machine. When procedure is violated, a lawyer can use this to your advantage. Your lawyer can ask the important questions:

  • Was the test administered properly?
  • Was the breathalyzer machine calibrated as per state standards?
  • Were you observed for 15 minutes prior to the test to ensure that you did not belch or vomit?
  • Do you have a physical condition that could have led to a false reading?
  • Did you eat, drink or smoke in the 15 minutes prior to the breath test?
  • Was any procedure violated in the administering of your breathalyzer test?
