A San Francisco DUI conviction can bring many negative consequences into your life, including mandatory attendance at an alcohol program, jail or prison time, hefty fines, loss of driving privileges, community service, a criminal record, and more.  When it comes to California drunk-driving cases, the law requires that there is evidence that you were intoxicated and then drove.  While it seems to be pretty clear when it comes to these two things, it is not always so and things are often a lot more complex than that.  The prosecuting attorney in a San Francisco DUI case must be able to prove not only that you were intoxicated, but that you drove while intoxicated, that the arrest was made properly, that the results from any field sobriety testing were accurate and followed proper procedures, and that the results from any chemical test were accurate and obtained properly.  Not always so cut and dry to do and a savvy San Francisco DUI lawyer can often establish that one or more of these things did not occur and that test results are not reliable.
