DWI Defense Strategies

New York DWI Defense Attorney

Some lawyers may tout their experience and aggressiveness but advise most or all of their clients to plead guilty. Although we offer straight talk about consequences and the uncertainty that comes with taking any case through trial, we are always prepared to identify and execute the best possible DWI defense strategies based on your priorities and the facts of your case.

No matter how serious the charges against you and whatever the chain of events, a DWI defense attorney at our firm will offer legal counsel to help you navigate the legal system and avoid the harshest consequences. We investigate, evaluate and litigate every working day for our clients — and we do not just talk strategy, we apply it and get results.

Exploring All Angles to Expose Flaws in the Prosecution's Case

Even in the harsh and punitive environment for Nassau County and other New York drunk driving cases, there are numerous viable DWI defense strategies. We were exposed to them countless times as prosecutors, and we have been applying them for decades as defense lawyers. Attorney Karl Seman has lectured and written on this subject for the benefit of other DWI defense lawyers, covering strategies such as:

  • Exposing violations of the rights of the accused, including the lack of probable cause for a traffic stop, an illegal checkpoint, or failure to clearly advise you what your rights are under the law
  • Identifying procedural mistakes and skipped steps such as improper handling of evidence or failing to follow proper procedures when giving field sobriety tests
  • Establishing, through review of videotapes, police reports and other evidence, that there was not sufficient reason to arrest you for DWI
  • Attacking the reliability of the Breathalyzer or other chemical test equipment used to determine your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) or the presence of drugs in your system
