DUI Law Firm Denver has launched enhanced legal defense strategies specifically designed to address Colorado's Express Consent law violations, responding to a 15 percent increase in test refusal cases across the Denver metropolitan area during the past year.
The expanded services come as Colorado law enforcement agencies report more drivers refusing chemical testing during DUI investigations, triggering automatic license revocations that last at least one year. Under Colorado's Express Consent statute, drivers who refuse blood or breath testing face immediate administrative penalties separate from criminal DUI charges.
"The complexity of Express Consent cases requires specialized legal strategies that address both the administrative license revocation and the criminal proceedings," said Emilio De Simone, lead attorney at DUI Law Firm Denver. "Recent changes in prosecution tactics have made it essential for defense attorneys to challenge the validity of test refusal claims from multiple legal angles."
The firm's enhanced approach includes comprehensive analysis of arrest procedures, examination of body camera footage for constitutional violations, and challenges to the administration of chemical test advisements. These strategies have resulted in case dismissals and charge reductions in 40 percent of Express Consent violation cases handled by the firm in 2024.
DUI Attorneys at DUI Law Firm Denver now utilize advanced forensic analysis to challenge blood and breath test protocols, examining chain of custody documentation and equipment calibration records. The firm has identified procedural errors in approximately one-third of cases reviewed, including improper advisement of testing consequences and violations of mandatory observation periods.
The legal team has also developed specific defense strategies for cases involving prescription medications, medical conditions, and altitude-related factors that can affect test results. These approaches address the unique challenges faced by out-of-state visitors and residents with underlying health conditions that may impact chemical testing accuracy.
Colorado's Express Consent law allows prosecutors to present test refusal as evidence of guilt during trial, creating additional legal hurdles for defendants. The statute also imposes mandatory ignition interlock device installation for drivers seeking early license reinstatement, adding significant financial burdens to those accused of violations.
The firm's expanded services include representation at Department of Motor Vehicles hearings, which must be requested within seven days of arrest to prevent automatic license suspension. This narrow timeframe has prompted the firm to establish rapid response protocols for new clients facing Express Consent allegations.
Beyond Express Consent cases, the firm continues to handle DWAI charges, felony DUI cases, vehicular assault allegations, and marijuana-related driving offenses. The attorneys also represent clients in drug possession, trafficking, and other criminal matters throughout the Denver area.
