Unlawful Police Stops

Were You Stopped Without Probable Cause?

When you are stopped by law enforcement officials, probable cause must be proven in order for any charges stemming from the arrest to be upheld in court.  If you were recently stopped by police, and arrested for DUI, it is important that you discuss the details of your situation with a competent Van Nuys DUI defense attorney that is well versed in the laws and procedures relating to DUI arrests and police stops.

Unlawful police stops are a very important area of concern for DUI cases because they can often minimize or dismiss charges, if probable cause cannot be proven.  You will need aggressive and experienced legal representation that possesses a proven ability to properly investigate the details and evidence surrounding your arrest and be able to convey the issues in court, if the arresting officer violated your rights in any way by pulling you over.  It is your constitutional right to fight any charges that result from an unlawful or illegal police stop.
