The first step would be to challenge the stop. If the stop is invalid then all the evidence from the stop is tainted. Next you would challenge the reasonable suspicion for field sobriety exercises. After the FSE's you would challenge probable cause for arrest. Then implied consent and the breath test machine in a breath test case. Although if your DUI occurred over 10 days ago and you either refused a lawful breath, blood or urine test or had a blood or breath alcohol content over .08 your license would already be suspended administratively unless a temporary permit and administrative review hearing is requested. A DUI can be very complex and it's usually a good idea to hire a DUI attorney to insure your rights are protected.
