Immediately after arrest. The 10-day window to request a license hearing is critical and non-negotiable. Evidence also needs to be preserved quickly — dashcam footage, witness accounts, and breathalyzer records can be lost if you wait.
A DUI arrest in Alabama moves fast, and so do the consequences. Nick Law challenges the evidence, the procedure, and the charges to give you the strongest possible defense from day one.
A DUI charge in Alabama is serious — even a first offense can result in license suspension, heavy fines, mandatory alcohol programs, and a permanent mark on your record. And the clock starts ticking immediately after your arrest.
Many people make the mistake of thinking a DUI is a minor traffic matter they can handle on their own or plead out quickly. The reality is that DUI charges involve complex evidence — breathalyzer calibration, field sobriety test administration, the legality of the traffic stop itself — all of which can be challenged by an experienced DUI defense attorney.
Nick Law has handled DUI cases across Madison, Limestone, and Morgan counties. We know the local courts, we know the prosecutors, and we know how to build a defense that gives you a real shot at a favorable outcome.
Police must have reasonable suspicion to pull you over. If the stop was unlawful, evidence gathered afterward — including breathalyzer results — may be suppressed entirely.
Breathalyzer devices must be properly calibrated and maintained. We investigate the device's service records, the officer's training, and whether the test was administered correctly.
Field sobriety tests are subjective and prone to error. Medical conditions, medications, uneven surfaces, and officer bias can all affect results — and all can be challenged in court.
Blood tests must follow strict collection, storage, and chain-of-custody procedures. Any deviation can render results inadmissible or unreliable.
Blood alcohol levels rise after drinking stops. If you were tested some time after driving, your BAC at the time of driving may have been lower than the test showed.
Your Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights apply during a DUI stop. Evidence obtained through illegal searches or without proper Miranda warnings can be challenged and excluded.
You are processed, and your license may be confiscated. You typically receive a temporary driving permit. Contact Nick Law immediately — before speaking to anyone else.
You have only 10 days after arrest to request a hearing with the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency to contest your license suspension. Missing this deadline means automatic suspension. Nick Law handles this immediately.
Nick reviews the police report, dashcam and bodycam footage, breathalyzer records, and all evidence — building your defense and identifying what can be challenged.
Nick enters your plea and files motions to suppress unlawfully obtained evidence, challenge the basis of the stop, or dismiss charges where grounds exist.
The sooner you have legal representation, the more options you have. Early involvement allows Nick Law to challenge evidence, negotiate with prosecutors, and potentially prevent charges from ever reaching trial.
