DWI
Please fill out our Intake Form.
Not all New York DWI lawyers are alike. Until recently, almost all first time misdemeanor DWI defendants were offered a plea bargain wherein they pleaded guilty to the reduced charge of Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI). Now, however, in many counties, if the test result is too high or if there was a test refusal, first time misdemeanor offenders are not being offered a plea to the reduced charge of Driving While Ability Impaired. They must either plea to the misdemeanor charge or proceed to trial.
