Alcohol Absorption

Alcohol Absorption in DUI Cases

Experienced Insight from a Marietta Criminal Defense Lawyer

At Henrickson & Sereebutra, the DUI attorneys on their criminal defense team in Marietta have more than 30 years of combined experience to bring to the table in your case, including scientific knowledge regarding alcohol absorption that may have affected your BAC level. They know how stressful a time this likely is for you, and how important the outcome is, and that the charges have the potential to impact your life and career for decades. That's why they'll never treat you as just another case, but rather as an individual with unique concerns and legal needs that they will strive to address every step of the way.

Weak BAC Evidence May Be Challenged in Court

Having been certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a course on DUI detection and field sobriety tests, the lawyers at our firm are very familiar with the methods of gathering evidence in DUI cases. As such, they are also extremely knowledgeable regarding different methods of challenging that evidence.

Even if your BAC was at some point accurately measured as being over the legal limit, it is possible that this result may not reflect your BAC at the time you were actually driving. As the body takes a certain amount of time to absorb alcohol into the bloodstream, your BAC typically peaks nearly an hour after your last drink.

If this peak occurred between the time that you were pulled over and when your BAC was tested as over .08, it is possible that the amount of alcohol in your system was within the legal limit while you were actually operating your vehicle.
