The Consequences of a DWI Conviction in New Jersey

Being convicted of a DWI in New Jersey can have serious consequences. It can result in:

  • Hefty fines and court fees
  • Suspension of your driver's license
  • Requirement to attend alcohol education programs
  • Increased auto insurance premiums
  • Installation of an ignition interlock device
  • Possible jail time, especially for repeat offenses

These consequences can significantly impact your personal and professional life. It is crucial to have a skilled DWI attorney by your side to help minimize these potential penalties.

Defenses Against DWI Charges

It is important to remember that being charged with a DWI does not automatically mean you will be convicted. There are various defenses that can be used to challenge the charges against you. Some common defenses include:

  • Invalid Traffic Stop: The police must have a valid reason to pull you over. If the traffic stop leading to your DWI charge was unlawful, it can be argued that the evidence against you should be suppressed.
  • Inaccurate Field Sobriety Tests: Field sobriety tests are not always accurate and can be affected by various factors. We will analyze the administration of these tests to determine if they were conducted correctly.
  • Faulty Breathalyzer Test: Breathalyzer tests can produce incorrect results due to calibration issues or operator error. We will investigate the circumstances surrounding your test to determine if it was reliable.
  • Rising Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC): It takes time for alcohol to be fully absorbed into the bloodstream. We may be able to demonstrate that your BAC was below the legal limit at the time of driving, even if it exceeded the limit later during the testing process.
  • Mishandling of Blood Samples: If your blood was drawn as part of a DWI investigation, we will scrutinize the handling and storage of the sample to ensure that proper protocols were followed.

These are just a few examples of the defenses that can be used in DWI cases. Our experienced attorneys will thoroughly examine the facts of your case to determine the most effective defense strategy for you.
