A Skilled Defense Attorney on Your Side
Because of Virginia's strict drunk driving laws, examining the Breathalyzer (or Intoxilyzer) results is a critical part of any Driving Under the Influence (DUI) or Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) defense strategy. If you have been charged with DUI/DWI, you need an attorney who thoroughly understands how the breath and blood tests work.
At The Law Offices of Christopher Amolsch, a criminal defense law firm in Northern Virginia, lawyer Chris Amolsch handles many criminal cases that involve forensic DNA results. This experience gives him experience with the interaction between science and the law. Mr. Amolsch can analyze your Breathalyzer results and fight your DUI charge. Please call our offices in Alexandria at 703.683.2020 or Leesburg at 703.969.2214. Your initial consultation is free.
The science of drunk driving
Attorney Chris Amolsch understands the chemical and scientific aspects of breath tests and BAC numbers. Though Mr. Amolsch consults experts when necessary, his clients have the benefit of working with an attorney who can deconstruct what the numbers listed on their DWI paperwork without having to wait for an outside consultant.
Mr. Amolsch knows the damaging impact even a first DUI offense has and strives to reduce or dismiss charges through the use of scientific evidence. As such, each case is treated with the utmost importance. Mr. Amolsch reviews machine records to determine the accuracy of BAC test results, which may be affected by a range of factors, such as:
- Defective test equipment
- Improper test administration
- Water volume in body tissues
- Police radio interference
- Mouthwash
- Hiccupping
- Vomiting
- Denture residue
- Metabolism rates
- Other medical issues
