A recent victory in a case by Dakota County, MN DWI defense attorney Max Shek

Earlier this year in May, a client retained me after hitting a tree and blowing over a .20 BAC level. At first glance, these facts were bad. Many DWI attorneys would look for a plea out of the gate. I looked over the case again and again. For measurement related DWI charges, the State may use retrograde extrapolation (using science to determine the measure of your BAC level within two hours) to prove a DWI charge, but they need certain data including but not limited to the amount of alcohol ingested, time since last drink, food intake to carry out the measurements. The Police took my client to a hospital and could not obtain a warrant for a DWI blood because the online system was down. As a Dakota County DWI defense attorney, I filed a motion to dismiss my client’s case and the prosecutor dismissed the charge.
