Throughout Colorado, law enforcement officials have been expanding efforts to crack down on drunk driving offenses. Being convicted of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated can have serious consequences, including loss of license, higher insurance costs, heavy fines and even jail time. With more than 11 years experience in handling driving under the influence (DUI) and driving while intoxicated (DWI) cases, The Gonzales Law Firm has the knowledge necessary to overcome the evidence against you and the ability to help you attain the best possible outcome.

What to do if you have been drinking
If you have been pulled over by the police, there are several ways you can help yourself.

1. Remain calm. Police officers can interpret nervousness in your voice as a sign that you are hiding something or are intoxicated. Whether you have consumed alcohol or not, remaining calm is a good way to ensure that police officers will not question your sobriety.
2. Always have a clean center console or glove box. Fumbling through these compartments to find your registration or insurance can be easily misinterpreted for intoxication. By keeping a glove box or center console neat and clean, it allows you to swiftly grab your credentials and present it to a police officer.
3. Do not consent to a search of the car. Any evidence found in your car could be used to support a DUI conviction, so do not allow the officer to perform a search.
4. Get a blood test after release. Because alcohol detection devices can be faulty, it’s a good idea to measure your BAC (blood alcohol concentration) after arrest. At trial, your attorney can use that evidence to raise possible defenses.
5. Contact a DWI attorney immediately.
