Reader’s Question:

I have a DUI charge here in Anchorage, Alaska and I am finding reasons to fight my case because I think that it’s gonna be over if I just plead guilty. Will I have any legal and emotional reasons to fight my case?

Of course you do, you definitely have legal and emotional reasons to fight your DUI case in Anchorage, Alaska. One aspect of your DUI case that you and your DUI lawyer would have to look into is the DUI traffic stop. The prosecution has to prove that the DUI stop was legal in the first place. The DUI lawyer could also have an independent testing of the blood sample that was drawn when you were arrested. The blood sample could also probably be clotted or fermented that produced a false high blood alcohol content (BAC) reading.

The emotional reasons to fight your DUI case could also be significant. Just like any boxer would tell you, it would be better to go down swinging that to back down from the fight. Shrinking from the battle, be it may in the courtroom or elsewhere in life, could bring emotional wounds that are far more hurtful than anything the judge could for you. Sometimes, it would be important to fight, just so you know you have done everything in your power to help the situation. Not to fight your DUI case would carry emotional baggage for a lifetime.
