Experienced New York/New Jersey DUI Defense Lawyers
A DWI can happen to anyone. All it takes is a mistake in judgment. It is a serious charge that should be taken seriously.
Even if it is your first offense, the consequences are significant. DWI charges may result in the loss of your driver's license, serious fines, having to put an interlock device in your car and the possibility of going to jail.
At Sutnick & Sutnick, LLC, in Hackensack, New Jersey, we represent people accused of DWI in Northern New Jersey and the New York City metro area. We are experienced attorneys and former prosecutors who have in-depth knowledge of the law and DUI procedures, including those relating to Breathalyzer testing and alcosensor testing. We evaluate all of the police paperwork and can contact scientific experts to review your case.
About the Law on Drunk Driving
A blood alcohol level of .08 is the baseline for drunk driving cases in both New Jersey and New York. Anyone charged with a refusal to take a Breathalyzer test may face the same serious consequences as a person charged with drunk driving.
In both states, the consequences increase with an arrest for a second or third DWI.
A second conviction may cause you to lose your driver's license for two years. You may spend some time in jail or in a treatment center. And for a third arrest, you could face a six month minimum jail sentence and lose your license for ten years. For this reason, it is critical to contact an experienced attorney — especially if you have been arrested for drunk driving before.
