A: The arresting officer is required to provide you very specific advisements of your rights surrounding their request for a blood sample. If the officer failed to provide you correct notice, that would potentially invalidate a significant portion of the evidence against you. I would suggest reaching out to a DUI attorney to discuss the specific details of your case. Many attorneys provide free consultations, this would give you a great opportunity to determine the strength of your case before making a decision.
