The forensics of blood alcohol content is a vital aspect of driving while intoxicated (DWI) cases. The way that blood is drawn and processed can have an impact on whether or not someone is considered below or above the legal limit for drinking and driving. This, in turn, can dictate whether or not someone is charged and convicted of a crime.

With more than 20 years of criminal law experience, Attorney Grant has earned national recognition as a speaker on the topic of forensic breath and blood alcohol testing, as well as on various other topics. Ms. Grant, who now provides DWI defense and criminal defense, is a former prosecutor who specifically focused on DWI cases. She has completed the operator certification course for the Intoxilyzer 5000, the certification course that teaches administration of standardized field sobriety tests (SFST), the SFST Instructor course, and many other courses. She has received a certificate in forensic chromatography from ACS, of which she is a member. She is also a member of the American Academy of Forensic Science, and she has been accepted into the Master’s of Forensic Science program at the University of Florida (in the College of Pharmacy).

Attorney Grant and the other lawyers at her firm serve as strong advocates for those who need to challenge their DWI charges in Collin County and Dallas County, Texas. Her legal team is also able to provide competitive defense for individuals facing other types of criminal charges, such as assault, drug crimes, theft crimes, white collar crimes and more.
