Anyone can be charged with a DUI or other drugged driving offense. These charges impact people of all ages and from all walks of life. Although a DUI can happen to anyone, you should seek legal representation to avoid adverse consequences for you and for your driving record.
Overview of DUI Law:
An accusation of driving under the influence (“DUI”) could have lasting implications for you and your driving record. A conviction for DUI can add up to 12 points onto your license, likely resulting in suspension. Additionally, a conviction may require you to participate in alcohol evaluations, classes, and useful public service. You may also be required to install an interlock on your vehicle.
Fighting DUI charges is now more important than ever. In Colorado, people are charged with felony DUI after three prior convictions for alcohol or drug related driving offenses.
Common charges that may accompany a charge of DUI include: driving while ability impaired (“DWAI”), driving under the influence of drugs (“DUID”), DUI per se, underage drunk driving (“UDD”), minor in possession of alcohol, open container violations, reckless driving, careless driving, lane usage violation, and various traffic offenses.
How can an Attorney Help You?
Attorney James Frazier will fight for you in court and at the DMV to keep your record clean. In Colorado, unlike other states, DUI charges are prosecuted both in criminal court and by the Department of Motor Vehicles ("DMV"). Accordingly, you need an attorney experienced at litigating DUI charges with both of those agencies. Mr. Frazier is experienced at litigating DUIs in criminal courts and at the DMV.
In Criminal Court: Attorney James Frazier will handle your DUI during all stages of the criminal process including motions practice and trial. Mr. Frazier will begin by determining which motions to file. Attorney Frazier may move to throw out ("suppress") your traffic stop along with any statements you may have made to law enforcement. Mr. Frazier may also use recent caselaw to argue for suppression of your blood test result or your refusal to provide a blood sample.
Attorney James Frazier is ready to try your case. Mr. Frazier's trial presentations will help show the court and the jury the unfair nature of field sobriety tests. And Mr. Frazier will help jurors scrutinize the manner in which officers administered those "tests." Mr. Frazier is also well versed in the Colorado Department of Health's guidelines related to chemical testing. That knowledge helps attorney James Frazier examine breath alcohol results from an intoxilyzer test and blood results related to offenses involving marijuana.
At the DMV: Attorney James Frazier has a sophisticated understanding of the process and procedure used by Colorado's Department of Motor Vehicles in cases involving DUI. Mr. Frazier has successfully litigated against the DMV to preserve driving privileges for Coloradans throughout the state. Mr. Frazier succeeds by "putting the agency to its proofs" and forcing officers to appear at hearings. Attorney James Frazier also uses recent caselaw to challenge the validity of Colorado's express consent statute in certain cases.
