WHY SHOULD I RETAIN YOU FOR MY DWI?

The first question you need to answer is “should I retain a lawyer?” The truth is that no one is going to make you do so. Many people simply give up and plead guilty –either because they aren’t aware of the enormous direct and indirect costs of a DWI or they’ve been told that it’s hopeless.

Look, DWI is serious business in New Jersey. A conviction will cost you many thousands of dollars. The loss of license will not only be an inconvenience, it could wind up costing you your job. I’ve seen careers, reputations and marriages ruined as a result of a DWI conviction.

So, what are you going to do? Assume it’s hopeless, plead guilty and take your beating? Or are you going to turn to an experienced New Jersey DWI attorney to preserve your rights, explore the discovery with a critical eye, assess the strengths and weaknesses of the case against you, make appropriate motions, advise you of your best options in light of the facts and the law, and if necessary, try your case to a conclusion?

If you’ve read this far, you’re probably ready for the second question: “why should I retain you for my DWI?” Good question. Here are three reasons:

Experience: We’ve practiced law in the municipal courts throughout New Jersey since the 1980’s. It’s where we make our living. DWI cases are a major focus of our practice. We handle them regularly, not just once in a while. Given the toughness of New Jersey’s DWI laws and their penalties, this is an area where experience particularly counts!

Knowledge: Defending DWI cases is tough work. It takes knowledge of the always changing statutes, case law and administrative rulings. It takes knowledge of developments in the science and technology relevant to DWI equipment and procedures. We spend hundreds of hours each year keeping current on these legal, scientific and technological changes. We spend thousands of dollars attending seminars and purchasing materials relevant to this area. Why? Because DWI cases is a focus of our legal practice. We’re committed to doing it very well.

Attitude: Like in most of life, if you assume you’re DWI case is a loser, you will probably lose. We’re different. We start with the attitude that your case can be won, and then work hard to make it happen. We preserve your rights, gather the facts and then explain your options. And we discuss it with you in clear language, every step of the way. This is how we’ve built our reputation and our law practice: one satisfied client at a time.
