First-Time DUI Offenses

Under today's extremely strict and complex New York drunk driving laws, even the most basic first-offense DWI charge — let alone any DWI involving an accident, minor child in the car or other special circumstances — can have serious, life-changing consequences.

If you have been arrested for driving while intoxicated (DWI), it is absolutely essential to make decisions based on a clear understanding of what a conviction will mean in terms of your criminal record, suspension of your driver's license and other aspects of your life.
