DUI Defense Attorney in Meriden, CT

Can DUI Evidence Be Challenged?

Yes. A DUI case should not be evaluated solely by looking at a breath test number or the conclusions written in a police report.

Attorney Lugo examines the evidence from the beginning of the encounter.

Was There a Legal Reason to Stop Your Vehicle?

Police generally need a lawful basis to initiate a traffic stop. If the circumstances surrounding the stop are questionable, that can become an important issue in the case.

Were Field Sobriety Tests Properly Conducted?

Field sobriety testing is not performed under laboratory conditions. Nervousness, medical or physical limitations, road surfaces, weather, footwear, lighting, and the officer’s instructions can potentially affect performance.

Is the Chemical Test Reliable?

Breath, blood, and urine evidence may involve questions regarding testing procedures, timing, equipment, handling, and whether applicable requirements were followed.

What Does the Video Evidence Show?

When body-camera, cruiser-camera, surveillance, or other video evidence exists, it may provide important context that is not apparent from the written police report.

A thorough DUI defense means looking beyond the accusation and examining how the evidence was actually obtained.

Your Driver’s License May Require Immediate Attention

One of the biggest concerns following a DUI arrest is often:

“Am I going to lose my license?”

Connecticut DUI cases can involve administrative driver’s license consequences that are separate from the criminal prosecution. Chemical-test results or a refusal to submit to testing can also affect what happens to your driving privileges.

Timing can matter.

Attorney Lugo helps clients understand both sides of the process and what steps may need to be taken following an arrest.

Do not wait until your case is over to start thinking about your driver’s license.

A Strategic, Disciplined Approach to Your Defense

Successful DUI defense begins with preparation.

Rather than treating every DUI case the same way, Attorney Lugo examines the specific facts and evidence to identify potential weaknesses and determine the strongest available defense strategy.

That may include challenging evidence, addressing procedural issues, negotiating with prosecutors, or preparing to fight the allegations in court when appropriate.
