When a commercial driver faces DUI charges, the stakes are high, and the complexities of legal defense are profound. It's not simply a matter of dealing with fines or a license suspension.

At Arnold Placek & Foerster PC, we understand that commercial drivers are held to stricter standards and that the consequences of a DUI conviction can be life-altering. Arnold Placek & Foerster PC is not just a legal firm; we are a beacon of hope for drivers who are backed into a corner, fighting to ensure their side of the story is heard and that their rights are fiercely defended. If you're a commercial driver in need of representation, we urge you to reach out to us-Arnold Placek & Foerster PC is your defender in the face of adversity.

The repercussions of a DUI conviction for a commercial driver can ripple through every aspect of their life. From the moment allegations surface, a driver can face immediate suspension of their commercial driver's license (CDL), which is essential for their job. Here at Arnold Placek & Foerster PC, we're alert to the domino effect that follows a DUI charge:

  • Job Loss: Your career as a commercial driver may grind to a halt.
  • Increased Insurance Rates: Insurability becomes a hurdle, with premiums skyrocketing.
  • Permanent Record: A DUI leaves a mark that can hinder future employment opportunities.

Contrary to non-commercial drivers, those holding a CDL are held to a higher legal standard. The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) threshold for a commercial driver is typically half of that for non-commercial drivers. This lower threshold means that dropping your guard even slightly can lead to DUI charges. At Arnold Placek & Foerster PC, we delve deep into the specifics of your case, providing a robust defense in the face of these stringent standards.

Our approach to defending clients against commercial DUI charges is as tailored as a bespoke suit. We draw upon a wealth of legal tactics and strategies to challenge every aspect of the charge. Breathalyzer accuracy, probable cause for the initial traffic stop, and even the handling of evidence can all serve as pillars for a strong defense. By meticulously examining each detail, Arnold Placek & Foerster PC crafts a defense aligned with the unique circumstances of your situation.

In any DUI case, the strength of the evidence is a pivotal factor. For commercial drivers, understanding how evidence can make or break a case is critical. With Arnold Placek & Foerster PC by your side, we ensure that every piece of evidence is scrutinized, and anything that may aid in your defense is utilized to its fullest potential. We leave no stone unturned, from evaluating the conditions of field sobriety tests to cross-examining the calibration records of breathalyzer devices. Our meticulous attention to detail is your strongest shield.

Evidence comes in many forms. Whether it's video footage from the traffic stop or witness testimonies, each element is a thread in the tapestry of your defense. Arnold Placek & Foerster PC is adept at piecing together these threads to weave a robust narrative in your favor. Our persistence in challenging evidence can lead to reducing or dismissing charges.

The reliability of a breathalyzer test or field sobriety tests can be contentious and is often a fruitful ground for defense. Breathalyzers must be regularly calibrated and properly administered, while field sobriety tests require strict adherence to protocols. Arnold Placek & Foerster PC arms you with the defense tactics necessary to question the validity of such tests if discrepancies are present.

Modern law enforcement often comes equipped with dashboard and body cameras that record interactions with the public. This footage can be indispensable for your defense. It provides an objective recount of the events leading up to and during your arrest-footage that Arnold Placek & Foerster PC uses to ensure your rights were respected every step of the way.

Eyewitness accounts can alter the trajectory of a DUI case. Whether it's disproving aspects of the officer's report or affirming the driver's version of events, witness statements carry weight in court. With Arnold Placek & Foerster PC, you gain access to legal professionals capable of gathering and presenting compelling testimonies on your behalf.

Was the traffic stop that led to the DUI charge lawful? Did probable cause exist? These are crucial questions that must be asked-and answered-in your defense. Arnold Placek & Foerster PC ensures your constitutional rights were not infringed upon and that any misstep by law enforcement is exposed.
