Challenging Key Evidence in Colorado DUI and Criminal Cases
Blood alcohol content (BAC) testing plays an important role in most DUI and DWAI arrests, as well as other forms of these charges specifically for people under the age of twenty-one. If you were arrested for an alcohol-related offense, you most likely took both a breath test and a blood test, although urine testing is also used.
Challenging the validity of blood alcohol content readings — based on equipment or procedural problems, or the handling of evidence — is a viable DUI defense strategy when facts support it. At Cross Liechty & Lane, P.C., we engage personally with our clients, thoroughly investigate our cases and review all evidence.

Knowledge of Colorado Law and Denver Area Courts
Breathalyzer machines and other testing equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated to prevent false blood alcohol content readings. In terms of consequences for you, differences between 0.04 and 0.05 percent, or 0.7 and 0.8 percent BAC can be pivotal, for example: If evidence is shaky it can be essential to expose its unreliability.
Sometimes, digging into police procedures and adherence to guidelines can yield critical evidence in your favor — and this is one avenue we pursue while conducting a thorough investigation.
