Los Angeles Driving Under The Influence Attorney
Unlawful Police Stops Defense Lawyer
Have you been charged with driving under the influence? If so, our
Los Angeles DUI Attorneys want to help you protect your legal rights. Often times, DUI arrests result from unlawful police stops. Our
DUI defense attorneys are here to protect and fight for your constitutional and legal rights.
A police officer must have probable cause to pull you over; meaning that he or she must have some reasonable suspicion of some sort of criminal activity taking place. To be stopped for driving under the influence the officer must have observed some type of behavior that would cause one to reasonably suspect that the driver was under the influence.
Swerving, speeding, driving recklessly or too slow, ignoring traffic laws, weaving in and out of lanes are some examples of behavior that would cause a police officer to reasonably believe that one is driving under the influence.
If an officer stops you without reasonable cause but rather just on a chance that you might be drinking, this may be a violation of your rights and will be considered an unlawful police stop.
As your DUI lawyer if we demonstrate that the stop was unlawful, your case may be dismissed. So if you are being charged with a DUI and there is even a slight possibility that the police stop was unlawful,
