There is no limit to what things your DUI attorney could investigate. He or she is just limited by their imagination and the facts of your case. This is just a starting point - every case will have it's unique facts.
However, here are some of the things, I would do in DUI or Physical Control cases:
- Interview the officer or trooper and any other witnesses;
- Interview the toxicologist and breath test technician (if case set for trial)
- Visit the scene of the roadside field sobriety tests (FST);
- Visit the location of the driving and stop;
- Review all breath/blood tests records;
- Review client's medical records;
- Review service history of client's vehicle;
- Review client's mental health records/prescriptions;
- Review photographs of breath testing room;
- Review any photographs or videos of the incident;
- Take or obtain photographs of the FST and stop location;
- Map out client's driving;
- Create a time-line for the entire incident;
- Request through a Public Disclosure Request (PDR) the incident report, 911 tapes and patrol vehicle videos.
- Review police report databases;
