Tempe Field Sobriety Tests Attorney

Field Sobriety Tests Lawyer in Tempe

If you have been arrested and charged with any DUI offense, it is likely that you submitted to one or more "field sobriety tests".   If this is your situation, it is important that you contact a Tempe field sobriety tests lawyer as soon as possible after any DUI arrest.   These tests are administered by law enforcement when they want to determine whether you are DUI or not.  The tests are evaluated by the individual performing the test, and as each person's observational skills are extremely varied, they are not really "scientific" tests at all.  Even the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration measures their best test (by study) as being only 88% accurate, and this is after the individual has had specific training on how to administer the test.   What this means to you is that if you have had these tests administered, it is quite possible that the determination of "DUI" could have been completely inaccurate.

Attorney Anthony Knowles and the legal team at the Knowles Law Firm are very knowledgeable about field sobriety tests, as Attorney Knowles is a former police officer.  Understanding how the tests are intended to be administered is one part of the possible DUI defense for your case.  Many law enforcement officers have made errors in administering the tests, and there are also other reasons why a person may fail such a test, including physical problems, medical problems, age, lack of balance, or lack of language skills to understand the orders.  If you have been administered these tests and then were arrested for a DUI charge, it is crucial that you contact a Tempe field sobriety tests lawyer from the Knowles Law Firm immediately after the arrest.  You have the right to an attorney, and you have the right to decide to get an experienced, relentless and very knowledgeable DUI defense lawyer to fight to protect you.

In Arizona, law enforcement must have "probable cause" to arrest you.  If the testing procedure is used as probable cause, this may be possible to challenge in court.  Many successful court challenges result in dismissed charges.  Take advantage of the background, skill and aggressive approach to DUI charges and contact a DUI defense attorney from the Knowles Law Firm immediately after any DUI arrest.
