One of the myths that I am determined to dispel is the idea of "perfection" in DUI blood testing. I have had far too many clients come to me and indicate that they have heard from friends, family, and shockingly even other attorneys, that because they took a blood test in their case, there is nothing that can be done to help them. This statement is 100% inaccurate.

Behind the Scenes of a DUI
People who don't live in Arizona, or even Arizonians who don't live in Scottsdale or Maricopa County, are shocked when they learn about how DUI charges are initiated and prosecuted in Arizona. Not only are people horrified to learn that the police officers here can haul you into the jai and forcibly draw your blood themselves, but are more shocked by the draconian the sentencing scheme which provides for some of the harshest penalties in the nation.
