Understanding DUI With Injury Defense in California

The DUI case against you will be based on the evidence at the accident site as well as any administered blood alcohol concentration (BAC) tests. Law enforcement investigates all such accidents and comes to a conclusion based on the evidence. The prosecutor will be highly motivated to get a conviction in the case and has the support of law enforcement, labs, and the entire state network for backup. It may be necessary to conduct a separate investigation of the circumstances of the accident or interview the available witnesses.

No person wants to be responsible for harming another person in a DUI accident. However, just because you are charged with the crime does not mean that you are the responsible individual. There are factors in the area that can affect road conditions that could have contributed to the accident. Fog is often present, wet roads, or other factors that could have caused the accident other than intoxication. It is very important that if you have been charged with this felony DUI that you contact the Bakersfield DUI lawyers at Middlebrook & Associates to review your case and advise you of the defense actions to protect you.

When you are faced with injury felony charges you need to protect yourself with an aggressive, experienced attorney. Call our office at (661) 874-1325 or fill out our online contact form to schedule your consultation.
