Here at Doyen Sebesta & Poelma Lllp, we can help dissect your charges and give you a clear picture of what you're dealing with.

Evidence plays a pivotal role in the outcome of DUI cases. Sobriety tests, breathalyzer results, and the arresting officer's testimony are all scrutinized in court. We help you understand the kind of evidence that may be used against you and how we might counter it.

Questioning the accuracy or legality of the evidence can be a cornerstone of a robust defense. That's where our expertise can significantly influence your case.

Among the array of defense strategies that our attorneys may employ, there are several that frequently prove to be beneficial. We might argue that the officer lacked probable cause for the initial traffic stop, assert that field sobriety tests were improperly administered, or that the breathalyzer equipment was not calibrated correctly.

Every detail matters, and our attorneys are trained to identify and capitalize on any discrepancies or weaknesses in the prosecution's case.

At times, the best course of action might be to negotiate a plea bargain. This doesn't mean admitting defeat; rather, it's a strategic move to potentially reduce the severity of the charges and consequences. We can guide you on whether this is a suitable approach for your circumstances.

Plea bargaining is a nuanced art, and our attorneys have the negotiation skills necessary to pursue an agreement that serves your best interests.
