DRIVING UNDER INFLUENCE (DUI)
Even though it may seem like the end of the road, everyone has the right to fight their loss of driver’s license and the DUI charges filed against them. To do this, you need a qualified and experienced Sioux Falls DUI attorney on your side to help you fight the charges before you.
At Richard Thramer Law, our experienced DUI attorneys will carefully analyze all facts about your case and prepare a timely defense on your behalf.
The Arraignment
During your first court appearance, which is referred as arraignment, DUI charges filed against you will be read to you. Then, you’ll be offered a chance to plead “guilty,” “not guilty,” or “no contest.” To challenge the DUI charges against you, we advise that you enter a plea of “not guilty” and your trial will be scheduled for a future date. Our DUI lawyer can accompany you to protect your rights and make sure you understand the arraignment process.
Defending You from DUI Conviction
Sometimes prosecutors work very hard to make you believe that your DUI case is cut and dried, and that you must be convicted. However, At Richard Thramer Law, our lawyers know many defenses that can be used to fight your DUI charged based on the available evidence. Common defenses include:
- Initial lack of probable cause by the officer to make you stop
- You did not appear under the influence based on field sobriety tests
- Miranda rights violations
- A lack of evidence
- Illegal arrest
- And more…
