DUI cases involving drugs are handled slightly differently than those involving alcohol, and your attorney should be experienced in dealing with DUI of drugs cases in particular. For example, a breath test will not be administered for a DUID case. A blood or urine test will most likely be done to determine whether a controlled substance is present in your system. Field sobriety tests will play a more important role, as the prosecution will need to prove that your normal abilities were impaired due to drug use.

Our legal team has the resources and the experience to provide you with the aggressive legal representation you need in the face of your DUI of drugs charges. Let us review your case and see what action we can take on your behalf to help you avoid a conviction.
