For this reason, it is important for you to take a note of every possible detail of the place where you are stopped by the traffic police officer. Write down all the details related to the officer that handed you the ticket, the exact place where you were stopped, the weather conditions at that time, the traffic condition at the time, etc.  Do not try convincing a prosecutor or even speak to him under any circumstance as that could invite further trouble for you.  Assuming that the police officers wouldn’t have made any mistakes would be another mistake of yours. There are high chances that the officers commit mistakes at some point of time or violate your rights. This could only be determined by an experienced defense attorney.  Do not consider the blood test taken at the time of your DUI stop as final. Get your blood retested from a separate laboratory.  Giving official statements is a serious thing which decides the further proceedings of the case. Make sure you do not give any official statements or sign any documents in the absence of your criminal defense attorney.  Gather all relevant documents (like credit card receipts from the place you consumed alcohol, cell phone records, restaurant receipts, a copy of your DMV driving record, etc.) and preserve them in a safe place for later use.
