Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)

Driving While Intoxicated (also called DWI or "drunk driving") accusations in Westchester and Putnam County are serious and often complex.

A number of factors can make what might otherwise seem an ordinary drunk driving case turn out to be a significant problem. For example, if there is an automobile accident connected with the driving while intoxicated accusation in Westchester, or if there were any children in the car during the alleged driving while intoxicated, the Westchester District Attorney's Office will probably treat the case with a special attention that will make easy or quick resolution unlikely.

Driving under the influence of drugs, including prescription drugs can also make a particular case more complicated than an "ordinary" driving while intoxicated case.

The science underpinning the breath testing machines in driving while intoxicated cases is subject to serious attack. Therefore, cases in which the breath test results seem insurmountable are sometimes better than they appear, but you need a lawyer familiar with the difficulties of the machine to press the issues in the right case.

In short, if you have been accused of driving while intoxicated in Somers, White Plains, Bedford, New Rochelle, or any other town or village in Westchester County or Putnam County, New York, you need a criminal defense lawyer with experience in driving while intoxicated cases.
