Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)

Myrtle Beach DUI Defense Attorney (BAC)

If you have been charged with DUI or DWUAC or DUAC based on the results of a blood alcohol content (BAC) test, do not assume that you have no legal options.

The results of the BAC test may not be accurate or admissible.

At the Monckton, Hembree & Humphries Law Firm, P.A., we represent local residents and visitors to the Myrtle Beach area who have been charged with drunk driving. Contact our law office today to schedule a free consultation, where we can discuss your legal options.

Challenging Blood Alcohol Content Tests

The lawyers at our firm have decades of experience in DUI defense. If you have been charged with drinking and driving, we will challenge the results of the blood alcohol content test and ask these questions:

  • At what point was you blood alcohol content tested? Your BAC level may have changed from the time you were operating the vehicle to the time your BAC was tested.
  • Was the individual who administered the BAC test certified? If not, the results of the test may not be admissible in court.
  • Was a Breathalyzer test administered? A Breathalyzer test may not accurately determine BAC level. A number of factors may make Breathalyzer test results inaccurate and therefore inadmissible.

Field Sobriety Tests

Our firm can similarly challenge the results of field sobriety tests. While BAC tests are intended to test the amount of alcohol in an individual's bloodstream, field sobriety tests assess an individual's ability to walk straight on a line, stand on one foot, and other tasks not related to BAC level.
