Massachusetts DUI Case Preparation: What to Expect

June 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Massachusetts DUI defense attorney Paul B. Watkins understands that effective DUI case preparation involves in-depth knowledge of the client, the case, and the factors involved with each in order to provide the best defense possible.  This type of fact gathering relative to a client’s DUI case begins with the collection of data, scene evidence, witnesses, police reports, and other documents.  No stone should be left unturned and all circumstances related to the case must be reviewed to provide realistic defense to overturn a Massachusetts DUI conviction.
Attorney Watkins and law partners Brian E. Simoneau and George E. McCarthy, Jr. offer insight into what it takes to have effective DUI case preparation on their new website http://www.MassDuiTrialLawyer.com.  In a section about DUI case preparation the website explains that good DUI defense must justify what might appear as damaging evidence.  For example, “a client who is overweight or who has medical problems including bad knees, hips, or feet may have difficulty performing field sobriety tests such as the 9 step heel to toe or one-legged stand.” In this circumstance attorney Watkins will make the determination of whether the prosecution has a good case and decide to take the case to trial or not.
In a situation such as the example cited, the client’s existing medical condition may provide insight to factors that would affect the accuracy of the prosecution’s case, and may suppress evidence that may have lead to a guilty verdict.  This type of investigative DUI defense coupled with attorney Watkins experience as a law enforcement officer allows him unique insight to the attention to detail required to win his clients DUI cases.
