DWI Defense / Traffic Violations

White Plains, New York, DWI Defense Lawyers

Many charged with a DWI just want the matter to end and be allowed to move on with their lives. Often, they will accept a "deal" from prosecutors and plead guilty. The problem is that the matter does not go away just because the court proceeding is done. A DWI conviction can affect your insurance rates, your job, and your personal life. At Mancuso, Rubin & Fufidio in White Plains, New York, we can help if you have been charged with a DWI or any type of traffic violation.

Harsh Penalties and Consequences

DWI laws are changing and becoming more harsh and complicated. Many people think, and we agree, that the penalties relating to a DWI conviction are too severe. With such dire consequences for a conviction, you need aggressive and knowledgeable representation from a DWI defense attorney at Mancuso, Rubin & Fufidio.

Managing Your DWI Defense Case

Immediately after your arrest for DWI/DUI, steps need to be taken to prevent your license from being automatically suspended. Within fifteen days, we must schedule an administrative hearing (separate from your criminal proceedings) with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Your right to drive can be suspended before being convicted and we must work hard to ensure that this right is defended.

Your lawyer will meet with the District Attorney and review police reports and the data from the Intoxilyzer. Your DWI defense attorney will also review the procedures leading up to your arrest, including the probable cause for the traffic stop and the methods performed during your field sobriety and chemical tests.

Cutting-Edge Knowledge and Experience

We maintain a cutting-edge knowledge of new DWI legislation, as well as the latest techniques in DWI defense. In addition, we are sensitive to the fact that the application of DWI laws to your case can have a tremendous impact on your life. You have a right to drive a car so you can make a living and support your family. Our goal is to have your case dismissed or mitigate any lasting repercussions if you are convicted. We will put our experience, knowledge, and familiarity with the criminal justice system to work for you.
