Our DUI Defense Strategy

Whether you live in the Kansas City metro area or Des Moines, Iowa, our firm provides a solid DUI defense that is dedicated to protecting our clients' rights. Some of our defense strategies include:

  • Investigating the stop
    Through listening to your story and examining police videos and records we can help determine if there was probable cause for the stop and if your constitutional rights were honored. We look at all angles for possible flaws.
  • Questioning the accuracy of field sobriety tests
    Field tests and breathalyzers are not always accurate. Sleep deprivation and some medical conditions may affect the results. We look at all the tests in combination to determine if there was probable cause for the charge. If the tests were not performed properly, we strive to have them thrown out of court.

    The horizontal gaze nystagmus test - or HGN test - is one of the most accurate field sobriety tests when conducted properly, but it is rarely conducted properly. The results of this test are not permitted in Kansas courts to prove DUI.

  • Reviewing police videotapes
    Police officers often get into habits when filling out their reports. They may automatically check certain boxes - such as slurred speech and bloodshot eyes - without actually observing these signs. Our DUI attorneys will review the police video for inconsistencies between the report and actual events.
  • Disputing breath test results
    Slamming a drink right before you drive causes breath tests to reveal a higher blood alcohol content (BAC). If your BAC was just over the legal limit, we may send you to a doctor or dentist to determine if the alcohol in your breath was higher than in your blood.

If you need assistance with your DUI charge or other traffic violation, contact The Traffic Lawyers of Kopecky Law, P.A. We will defend your rights in any traffic or criminal law matter. Contact us by phone 24 hours a day.
