     Unlike other attorneys, this firm has the experience of David Taylor having a B.S. in Chemistry from Auburn University, credit in two scientific publications, and experience working in a National Institute on Drug Abuse certified toxicology lab.  David has performed thousands of drug and alcohol tests on blood, urine, and other substances using the same testing techniques the State uses to prosecute your case.  David has tested substances and understand the workings of GC (Gas Chromatography), GC/MS (Gas Chromatograph / Mass Spectrometry), and HPLC (High Pressure Liquid Chromatography), and UV/Vis spectrophotometers.  David has also worked in certifying test results.  This is an area that is many times overlooked as a test result could show “positive” but because of deficiencies in the testing it should be discarded. 

 

     With an understanding of the science, the equipment, and the procedures used in the testing, David Taylor is ready to hold the State to the high standard required to say that you are under the influence of any substance or alcohol.  You can be assured that any deficiencies in the testing will be discovered and if possible the test “thrown out”.  Having a background and working knowledge of the testing procedures allows David to speak with the State chemists and review their work in a way other attorneys cannot understand.  Call us today to ensure your rights are protected. 

 

     Additionally, both Jim Strickland and David Taylor have trained in the National Highway Traffic Safety  Administration (NHTSA) procedures for field sobriety testing and traffic stops.  DUI can be a highly complex charge with many different angles to look at including was the stop good, were the test done correctly and were the correct procedures followed in regards to any chemical testing.  

 

     We understand the pressures on both the accused and their family when a person is arrested for a DUI charge.  Time is of the essence so don’t delay in contacting Taylor & Strickland to protect your driver’s license, your rights and your freedom.
