SPOKANE, WA · DUI DEFENSES

Common DUI Defenses in Washington

Every DUI case can be challenged

BUILT ON THE FACTS

A DUI arrest is not a conviction. The State must prove its case, and every step of the investigation — from the reason for the stop to the final test result — has rules that must be followed.

Where defenses come from

Strong defenses often come from the details: why the officer pulled you over, how field sobriety tests were given, whether breath or blood testing followed procedure, and whether your rights were respected.

As a former prosecutor, Chris Bugbee knows which weaknesses matter most to the State — and how to use them.

WHAT TO KNOW

Common DUI defense strategies

An unlawful stop can lead to suppressed evidence. Unreliable testing can weaken the State’s proof. Rights violations can affect what the jury hears.

The right strategy depends on your facts — and sometimes the best result comes from negotiation built on those weaknesses.

The strongest defense is built on the details — the sooner they are reviewed, the better.
