Oklahoma Blood Alcohol Testing Attorney

An initial stop and subsequent arrest for drunk driving does not mean a conviction is imminent. Procedures are often overlooked. Mistakes are made. Even blood testing is fallible if proper steps were not taken.

The complexity of the testing requires you to retain an experienced attorney. Handling the case on your own could have dire consequences. At the law office of Laird, Hammons, Laird PLLC , we provide immediate and aggressive defense of clients facing charges of DUI. We get to the facts of your case, specifically the handling of blood samples and the results of the test.

Oklahoma Drunk Driving Lawyer and Criminal Defense Attorney

Blood testing is often performed if the arresting officer suspects that a driver is impaired, yet does not smell alcohol. The testing must be properly administered by a licensed professional. At no time should law enforcement be involved in blood testing. However, the arresting officer should have knowledge that the individual performing the test is licensed after proper questioning.

Chain of custody often becomes a contentious issue. Documentation of all parties that handled the blood sample must be detailed. Any gaps in time that exist could result in your DUI case being dismissed.

The penalties for a first-time DUI are severe. Fines, possible jail time, loss of your license and increased insurance rates can have a negative impact on not only your job, but also your bank account. Take action immediately.
