If an officer searched your vehicle without a search warrant or permission to do so, and the evidence wasn’t in pain view, any evidence that was obtained may be inadmissible in court.
If you were arrested for DWI in Minnesota, and the police did not have reasonable suspicion to pull you over, your case could be thrown out of court.
Field sobriety tests lack any scientific foundation for gauging a driver’s level of impairment. We may be able to use the unreliability as part of your DUI defense.
Errors in the testing process, or measurement inaccuracies from breathalyzer, blood, and urine tests, may be weaknesses to the State’s case.

After meeting with several different lawyers, I hired Max to handle my DWI. He was very professional and did a good job of working hard for me. He was able to get the judge to dismiss my DWI with a motion he filed, and I only had a pay a fine for an equipment violation. I would recommend him to anyone, as he will work hard for you and go above and beyond the call of duty.
Under Minnesota’s “Not-a-Drop” law, there is zero tolerance for underage drinking and driving. If you are under the age of 21, you can face DUI charges if you operate a motor vehicle with any amount of alcohol in your system. If you get pulled over by police, and you have even a trace of alcohol in your system, you are subject to Minnesota’s “illegal per se” and “administrative per se” laws.
If a driver refuses to take a breath test to determine his or her BAC level, he or she will be offered a urine test and/or blood test. Officers may not require a driver to take a blood or urine test without a warrant, except in certain situations where criminal vehicular operation (vehicular homicide, bodily injury) is involved.
Refusing to take an alcohol concentration test comes with various administrative sanctions and criminal penalties. Your driver’s license may be revoked, and your DWI charges may be enhanced. Still, it may be in your best interest to refuse to take a test.
Jail time for a first DWI in Minnesota is unlikely in most cases. However, a first time misdemeanor DWI carries a penalty of up to 90 days in jail and a maximum fine of $1,000, so jail time is a possibility. If aggravating factors exist, your misdemeanor charge can be increased to a gross misdemeanor charge. If that happens, conviction can lead to up to one year in jail, a fine of up to $3,000, or both.
