Insight from Our Proven Baltimore DUI Lawyers
DUI charges are different than other criminal charges because they involve a measurable metric at the time of arrest (the driver’s blood alcohol level). Most people believe that when they fail their BAC test, they’ve already been “caught,” they’re guilty, and that they must accept penalties. However, the truth is that there are many sensitive factors that go into a DUI arrest and not every DUI charge is legally sound.
If you have been charged with a DUI, then it’s important to explore your defense options before proceeding. At Scheuerman Law, LLC, we take a comprehensive look at every DUI case that comes through our doors and assess it for possible errors. Our clients can trust that if a dismissal or acquittal is possible, it will be aggressively and effectively pursued.

“What Are My Options?”
There is a very specific procedure that law enforcement must follow when approaching and arresting a DUI suspect. To properly assess DUI defense options, every step of this procedure—and other factors that officers are not always trained to recognize—must be examined.
When assessing a DUI case, my firm looks at:
- Probable cause issues: did the police have reasoning to pull you over?
- Police conduct issues: were you read your rights? Informed of your options?
- BAC test: was it properly administered? In a timely fashion?
- The breathalyzer: was it properly calibrated? Receive proper maintenance?
- Drugged driving: did you submit to inaccurate marijuana testing?
- Witnesses: are there other people who can attest to your sobriety?
- Medical issues: were there other factors affecting your driving?
If you have been charged with DUI, then time is of the essence. Contact our firm to take a proactive stance against your charge with a proven advocate by your side.
