Carol Stream DUI Attorney is ready to defend any person charged with a DUI!

If you were arrested for a DUI in Carol Stream, Illinois, you were not alone. When you are arrested for a DUI in Carol Stream, the Carol Stream Police Department may charge you with two violations of the DUI statute. One of DUI charges is driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. The basis for this DUI charge is from the Carol Stream officer's observations of driver's physical and mental capabilities. The officer tests these capabilities through field sobriety tests conducted at the scene. In addition, the officer will be able to smell alcohol upon the driver's breath. The State will use testimonial evidence to attempt to obtain a conviction. The testimony is given by the arresting officer and possibly civilian witnesses. The burden of proof for the State is beyond a reasonable doubt to obtain a conviction. If the State fails in their burden, the DUI charge will be dismissed.
