Hiring Experienced Alabama DUI Lawyers
24-Hour Support
Think of an experienced DUI lawyer like an experienced doctor. While there are many doctors who understand the basic overview of human anatomy, you’d rather have a specialist unique to your condition, wouldn’t you? The same is true for an experienced DUI lawyer. The lawyer who wrote up your will may be talented, but that doesn’t mean he or she can fight your DUI case for you. You need a lawyer with the talent and experience to defend your DUI.
And if you think that a court appointed lawyer will save you money, think again! This attorney may not have the experience you need to help win your case. In the long run, having the wrong lawyer defend you could cost you more in fines and more in penalties. In fact, many circumstances require that you pay the court appointed lawyer some sort of fee.
So how do you know that the lawyer you choose to defend you is competent? He or she must be current on the latest DUI laws as they are always changing. Since DUI laws are some of the most complex, your lawyer must have unique skills and specialized training.
You’ll know you’ve found the right attorney when he or she is well versed in the effects of alcohol as they relate to the human body. This includes the manner in which alcohol is absorbed and then burned off.
Your DUI defense lawyer should be well-acquainted with the forensic experts called by the prosecution. The more your lawyer knows about these experts, the more he or she can find weak points in their qualifications upon cross-examination.
A qualified DUI lawyer also finds ways to defend you through witness testimony and closely examining any FSTs and breathalyzer tests. There are many down falls to breathalyzers and your attorney should know if the person who tested you was in fact qualified and also that the machine worked properly.
As you can see, there are many difficult issues when it comes to defending a DUI case. Don’t leave your defense in the hands of inexperience! At Polson & Polson, our attorneys specialize in DUI defense.
