Former Orange County, NY, Prosecutor Defending Those Charged With DWI
As a former senior assistant district attorney for Orange County, New York, I know the state's DWI laws well, and I also know the severity of the penalties you're facing if you have been arrested for drunk driving. After a DWI arrest, one of the most important things you can do to protect your rights is hiring a knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer. Contact me, Bruce Schonberg, for aggressive representation if you or a loved one has been arrested for DWI/DUI in New York.
Individual Attention and Strategic Defenses
At the Schonberg Law Offices of the Hudson Valley, I personally handle every criminal defense case to ensure that my clients' interests are vigorously protected. With a focus on personal attention and tailored, strategic representation, I work hard to produce the best possible results in the criminal courts of Orange County and throughout New York.
My staff and I are deeply familiar with the local courts in the various townships of the Hudson Valley, and we understand how the criminal justice system operates. I offer the following advice for what to do after a DWI arrest:
- Don't give a statement to the police officer
- Call an attorney
- If a high blood alcohol concentration (BAC) reading is possible or if this is a repeat DWI, you may want to refuse a Breathalyzer test
- Call a family member
- Sober up
- Cooperate with the police throughout the booking process (but don't give a statement)
- If possible, get a blood sample from a doctor within an hour or two of the DWI arrest
My goal is to have your charges reduced or dismissed, helping you to avoid serious charges on your criminal record and sky-high insurance rates.
