A Breath Test Says You Were Over the Limit, But Were You?
Breath tests are a notoriously unreliable method of determining blood alcohol content (BAC). Both the Intoxilyzer and the more familiar Breathalyzer require official training to operate. Breath test machines must be properly maintained and calibrated in order to return accurate results.

Challenging a DWI Breath Test in East Texas
There are three questions we should ask in any drunk driving case based on breath test evidence:
- Was the test administered properly by a trained professional and in the appropriate timeframe?
- Was the breath test machine properly calibrated and maintained?
- Is there other evidence like a dashboard or booking video that refutes the notion that you were intoxicated?
- Will the jury even believe it?
I'm proud of my reputation. I have a passion for litigation. I love to rise to a challenge. That means I will fight against a DWI charge based on faulty breath test evidence at trial and beyond.
