Feeling uncertain about the grounds on which you can appeal your DUI conviction? Don't worry at Fostel Law Firm PLLC, we're well-versed in the common arguments that can constitute the basis of a successful appeal. Understanding these grounds can be paramount in determining the strength and direction of your case.

Together, we'll explore every angle and pinpoint the legal aspects that can make or break the decision. Whether it's procedural mistakes or substantial doubts about the evidence against you, our team is determined to uncover any element that can lead to a favorable outcome for your appeal.

One potential ground for appeal is the claim that your original defense counsel did not adequately represent you. Perhaps key evidence wasn't presented, or crucial witnesses weren't called to testify. These oversights can have massive implications on your case, but proving ineffective assistance requires meeting a high legal standard.

Our team works tirelessly to identify instances where legal representation fell short. We understand the depth of analysis needed to substantiate such claims and will delve deep to provide substantial evidence for your appellate argument.

We scrutinize the minute details of trial records, searching for inconsistencies or errors that could have swayed the jury's decision. This thorough approach is designed to ensure that every possible procedural misstep is examined and addressed.

Your constitutional rights are the bedrock upon which your case stands.

Challenges may arise over the reliability of breathalyzer tests, blood samples, or the testimony of witnesses.
