How Our Maryland Out-of-State DUI Lawyers Can Help You Beat Drunk or Drugged Driving Charges

Our out-of-state DWI attorneys in MD examine every aspect of your case to build a strong defense strategy:

Challenging the Initial Traffic Stop

Law enforcement cannot pull you over without probable cause. Simply leaving a Ravens game isn't enough. Officers need specific evidence of a traffic violation or impaired driving. Legal grounds for a stop include weaving between lanes and running red lights.

Our team thoroughly reviews:

• Police dashboard camera footage
• Officer reports
• Witness statements

If we find the stop violated your rights, we can move to suppress all evidence collected afterward.

Questioning Field Sobriety Test Accuracy

Field sobriety tests often fail to tell the whole story.

Consider this: A tourist exhausted after exploring the National Aquarium all day, stumbles during a walk-and-turn test. Is this truly evidence of intoxication or simply fatigue?

Common factors that can affect field sobriety test performance:

• Physical conditions such as weight issues
• Anxiety and nervousness
• Fatigue from traveling
• Unclear officer instructions

Contesting Breathalyzer Evidence

Breath-testing devices require maintenance and proper operation. Our Maryland out-of-state DUI lawyers investigate:

• Machine calibration records
• Maintenance documentation
• Testing protocols and procedures

When proper protocols aren't followed, we can challenge the reliability of test results and potentially have them excluded from evidence.

Every DUI case presents unique challenges and opportunities. We leverage our experience to pursue the best possible outcome for your situation—whether that's dismissal, reduced charges, or a not-guilty verdict.

Listen to what our clients have to say:

• ★★★★★

  I recently had Mr. Maronick represent me for my first DUI case. I was very nervous about it because of the results of the DUI incident. The outcome that I was initially looking at was jail time, high fines and a license suspension. He got me out of jail time, I got probation, and the fines were thrown out. All I ended up having to pay were court costs. He really did his job, and I am very appreciative of that. I highly recommend him to be hired for your DUI case or any others you may have.

• ★★★★★

  Late last year I found myself in a position that I clearly had no ability to get out of on my end. Yes, you guessed it right I caught a DUI. Feeling ashamed and embarrassed I immediately put those feelings to the side and contacted the Maronick Law Firm. From the initial consultation, Tom made me feel at ease about my situation and instructed me on everything to do before my court date I ended up getting the DUI charge dropped to a PB - no points on my license or charges on my record, just a fine and 2yrs probation. To anyone going through a similar scenario, I highly recommend you reach out to the Maronick Law Firm.
