Can I refuse a breathalyzer test?

Can I refuse a breathalyzer test? You are perfectly within your rights to refuse a breath test or a blood test. Now, it may result in an officer going to obtain a warrant to get your blood test or breath test. However, there are often legal defenses involved in whether or not and how an officer went about obtaining a warrant. My advice to people is when in doubt, it may be in your best interest not to give a blood test or not to give a breathalyzer test. This is because it may ultimately make your case more defendable.

Whether or not you’ve given a breath test or a blood test and how it’s affected your case is something that we can sit down and answer for you. We can determine whether it was beneficial or not beneficial. The best advice is to sit down with a trained DUI lawyer and determine whether or not your charge or charges are defendable.
