NEW YORK CITY DUI DEFENSE ATTORNEY
At the Law Offices of Michael S. Discioarro, LLC, we are dedicated to building strong and effective DUI defense strategies for our clients. By providing personal attention and tireless representation throughout the legal process and DMV hearing, we seek to secure the best possible case result - even in the most complex or difficult of situations.
There are various points upon which an experienced New York City DUI defense lawyer may build a successful strategy:
- Were you lawfully arrested?
- Did the officer have probable cause to pull you over in the first place?
- Were you informed of the consequences of refusing a breath test or blood test?
- Were field sobriety tests administered properly? Were instructions given clearly?
- Was the breath test administered properly?
- Did the officer observe the standard 20-minute waiting period before the breathalyzer test?
- Did a trained professional administer the blood test?
- Was the blood sample handled properly?
- How did you do on sobriety tests?
- Any one of these questions may be raised, weakening the prosecution's case against you and helping you not only avoid a conviction in criminal court but also keep your driving privileges due to a successful outcome for your DMV hearing.

If you are pulled over for drunk driving, be sure that you do not talk to the officer about how much you have had to drink and when. You do have the right to refuse to answer certain questions, and by being polite and exercising your right to remain silent you may be able to benefit your case. If you are arrested for DUI, contacting an attorney will be necessary as soon as possible if you are to have the best opportunity of avoiding a conviction and serious penalties.
