Did You Give Consent to Take a Breathalyzer Test?
You may be surprised to learn that you did. In fact, everyone who possesses a valid drivers license has given consent. It's called implied consent. If you accepted the privilege to drive, you also gave consent to take a breathalyzer test upon being pulled over.
Is implied consent fair? Is it right? Well, that's questionable. Unfortunately, implied consent is a fact that has to be dealt with. At the Ayres Law Firm in Salt Lake City, Utah, our lawyers can deal with it.
When You Should Talk to an Attorney
Because of implied consent, DWI/DUI test refusal is a serious issue that can complicate your case. The law says that you don't have the right to talk to a lawyer until after you take the breathalyzer test. However, as soon as you have taken the test, you should get in touch with us.

Did You Refuse to Take the Test?
Refusing to take the breathalyzer is not a simple issue. Our lawyers know that, in many cases, what the police say was a refusal was not actually a refusal. There is a certain way that they must ask and the refusal must be clear.
For example, if you asked if you could talk to an attorney before taking the test and they called that a refusal, a mistake has been made.
Sobriety Test Mistakes Are a Reality
