That's where our expert insights come into play at Akins Nowlin & Prewitt. With our knowledge on your side, challenging an inaccurate BAC reading becomes a tangible possibility.

BAC is the concentration of alcohol in your bloodstream, and it is the standard used to legally define intoxication for the purpose of driving a vehicle. The higher the BAC, the more impaired an individual is likely to be, affecting their motor skills, judgment, and reaction times. By understanding BAC, defendants have a better chance of making informed decisions regarding their case.

BAC can be measured in several ways, commonly via breath, blood, or urine tests. Each method has its own level of accuracy and can be subject to various factors that may affect the results. Breathalyzers, the most common roadside test, estimate the amount of alcohol in the blood by measuring the amount of alcohol in the breath. Blood tests are more invasive but are also considered to be more accurate. Urine tests are less common and are generally used when breath or blood tests are not available.

Our expertise extends across various testing methods, equipping us to challenge or affirm their accuracy on your behalf. Whether it's a breathalyzer reading or a blood test report, we can walk you through the science and legality behind the measurement.

Breathalyzers estimate the BAC by measuring the presence of alcohol in the breath. This convenient method, however, is not without its faults. The equipment used must be meticulously maintained and operated correctly to ensure precise readings.

Akins Nowlin & Prewitt encourages DUI defendants to understand the particularities of breathalyzer tests, as the nuances involved can significantly impact the legal outcome. Our network of professionals can assist in evaluating the legitimacy of a breath test reading.

Blood tests are often touted as the gold standard for BAC measurement because of their direct analysis of the alcohol content in the blood. Despite this, they are not immune to errors in collection, storage, and processing-all of which can dramatically skew results.

We at Akins Nowlin & Prewitt understand how to look for signs of improper handling or testing issues that could render a blood test invalid. If you've had a blood test during your DUI investigation, it's imperative to have the procedure and the results thoroughly reviewed.

Challenging a BAC test involves questioning the testing method, the maintenance of the testing equipment, the training of the individual administering the test, and handling of the sample. Our proficiency in addressing each of these areas can prove critical in your defense.
