Our Attorneys
Our Attorneys
When your license, record, and peace of mind are on the line, the lawyer standing next to you matters. At Boise DUI, your attorney does the work that moves the needle fast. We spot suppression issues early, file the motions that count, and push for dismissals or reductions to inattentive or reckless driving when the facts and law support it. When trial is the right path, we try cases and we win cases. Every defense is built to get you from uncertainty to resolution as quickly as the system allows.
How we get results quickly
Speed without strategy is wasted effort. From day one we put a plan in motion tailored to Ada County practice and procedures.
-
Immediate evidence capture
We secure dispatch records, dash and body‑cam video, calibration and maintenance logs, breath‑test operator credentials, blood‑draw chain of custody, and any lab method validation materials before they go missing. -
Issue spotting that leads to action
We scrutinize basis for the stop, detention, and arrest. We break down field‑sobriety instructions and scoring, roadside conditions, medical and balance factors, and any non‑standardized exercises. We audit breath and blood testing from observation period to instrument performance and sample handling. When the government oversteps, we move to suppress. -
Negotiation with leverage
Strong motions and admissibility challenges drive outcomes. That leverage is how many clients see DUI charges dismissed or reduced to inattentive or reckless driving. If the state will not do the right thing, we set the case for trial. -
Trial‑ready from the start
We build a record that plays in a Boise or Ada County courtroom. Jurors respond to clean timelines, careful cross, and credible defense theory. Preparation wins trials and it also wins offers.
Meet the team
J.W. Bond — Attorney, Partner
J.W. brings an uncommon perspective to DUI defense. He worked as a police officer in Las Vegas before graduating from the Boyd School of Law at UNLV. That combination of hands‑on policing knowledge and formal training helps him anticipate how an officer will justify a stop, how standardized field tests were really administered, and where the paper trail will come up short. Clients appreciate that he is steady, direct, and relentlessly prepared.
How J.W. helps clients get to the finish line sooner
He attacks weak probable‑cause narratives, exposes shortcuts in roadside testing, and demands the logs and records that many prosecutors would rather not litigate. Those pressure points often lead to dismissals or charge reductions when the state recognizes its proof problems. If trial is required, J.W. is at ease in front of Ada County jurors and knows how to explain technical evidence in plain English.
Bailey Twitchell — Attorney
Bailey earned her degree from the University of Idaho College of Law after starting her career as a paralegal and gaining criminal defense experience with the Ada County Public Defender's Office. She is patient with clients and tough on the details, a combination that keeps cases moving while uncovering the issues that matter. Her background across investigation, litigation support, and courtroom advocacy gives her an instinct for what evidence is missing and how to make that matter to a judge.
What clients notice about Bailey's approach
She is proactive about requesting and reviewing video, test records, and medical documentation, and she follows up until the file is complete. Bailey's written motions are clear and focused, which positions her to negotiate meaningful outcomes such as dismissals or negotiated reductions to inattentive or reckless driving. When trial is the right call, she brings a calm, organized presentation that juries trust.
Scott Brown — Attorney
Scott began his practice with the Ada County Public Defender's Office, representing people on cases from misdemeanors through serious felonies. That foundation taught him how prosecutors build cases and how to pull them apart. Clients value Scott's thoughtful counsel and the way he turns complex facts into a clean defense theory. He is methodical, he prepares deeply, and he treats every client's case like it could be his own.
Why Scott's cases move
Scott identifies the one or two pivotal issues and drives them forward. He is rigorous with timelines and discovery, which keeps pressure on the state and avoids delay. Where the law and facts justify it, he files suppression motions that can end a case outright, and he negotiates creative resolutions that protect licenses and records. If a jury needs to decide it, Scott is ready.
