MANSLAUGHTER/ DUI SERIOUS BODILY INJURY/ FELONY DUI
In the area of DUI Manslaughter, Felony DUI, and DUI
Serious Bodily Injury, Parks & Braxton, PA’s experience and knowledge rise to a higher
level of DUI defense work. In over 40 years combined experience, Parks & Braxton, PA has
devoted themselves to learning and gathering the skills required to be the most
effective advocate a person accused of these offenses can find.
It should be understood that this type of prosecution is unlike any other in the
field of criminal defense and requires a completely different skill set from
anything related the typical DUI case.
In nearly every DUI Manslaughter, Felony DUI, or DUI Serious Bodily
Injury
prosecution the State employs the very best DUI investigators to gather evidence
against the accused. Also, the accused must contend with the fact that a blood
draw has been obtained and analyzed. The results are very often damaging and
disheartening. The analysis is performed in a police-run laboratory and is done
to detect the level of alcohol or the presence of drugs.
The State employs experts to analyze and interpret the results. These opinions
are always intended to place the accused in the worst possible light. It takes
special knowledge in the field of laboratory science and forensic
toxicology to effectively neutralize this type of evidence. Parks & Braxton, PA's
skills in these complicated areas is well recognized and documented.
They have lectured other members of the Bar on these issues as well as being
published in legal periodicals. This is in addition to the wealth of experience
they have gathered in these types of cases from investigating and preparing
defense strategies for dealing with the various police experts called into
court.
The analysis of the actual crash is also a major focus of the police because an
important element of the DUI Manslaughter,
Felony DUI, or DUI Serious Bodily Injury charge is CAUSATION.
That means the police must be able to prove that the accused caused or
contributed to the cause of the death or injury while driving impaired or over
the limit.
The lawyer that takes on this type of case MUST have knowledge
and experience in the areas of accident reconstruction and laboratory science.
An effective defense strategy must attack the two main types of expert
testimony. First, the opinion of the accident investigator that the accused
caused the crash, and second, the opinion of the toxicologist that the blood
analysis results are reliable and that the accused’s blood alcohol level was
above the limit at the time of the crash or that his blood concentration of
drugs caused him to be impaired at the time of the crash. Defending against this
type of evidence in not for the inexperienced. Without adequate knowledge or
experience, the lawyer is taking an enormous risk on behalf of the
client.
The lawyer must also understand the law of the legal or medical BLOOD
DRAW. Any defense of a DUI Manslaughter, Felony DUI, or DUI
Serious Bodily Injury prosecution MUST include a MOTION TO
SUPPRESS the results of the blood analysis. This is critical. This is
often the means by which the lawyer can achieve the desired result for the
client without having to risk going to trial and having the client spend
thousands of dollars for the use of his own expert witnesses.
However, if a jury trial is required the lawyer must have a network of expert
witnesses who work at reasonable rates and are equipped with the necessary
credentials to withstand any attack by the prosecution.
Parks & Braxton, PA, in their many years of practice in handling this type of
case, has developed such a network. They have at their disposal a group of
locally based expert witnesses who can assist in all phases of the defense.
All these individuals are extensively
trained and educated, possess unimpeachable credentials, have years of forensic
experience and can ably handle themselves during any prosecution
cross-examination.
This type of charge is extremely serious and requires close attention to the
correct choice in legal representation. It is of critical importance to seek out
an attorney that offers the knowledge and experience necessary to
achieve the right result. Parks &
Braxton, PA IS THAT CHOICE.
