Defending Drunk Driving Charges

Our firm is so experienced in defending DWI/DUI cases that we created a separate law firm called The DWI Defense Legal Group that focuses solely on defending DWI cases. When facing DUI or DWI charges, you need legal help as soon as possible to maximize the likelihood of keeping your driving privileges. Deadlines begin to run immediately upon arrest and waiting too long may cause you to endure suspensions and penalties that could have been avoided with aggressive legal defense. An aggressive defense at the initial administrative hearing may result in dismissal of DUI charges altogether. On the other hand, a delay can result in suspension of your driving privileges. For example, a New Hampshire driver charged with DUI will automatically lose his or her driving privileges unless an administrative hearing is requested within 30 days of the arrest. This administrative hearing is an incredibly important tool that can be used to ferret out information and determine the strength of the State’s case.

Other issues that require close examination include the legality of the traffic stop, the manner and propriety of the administration of field sobriety tests, the functionality of the Intoxilyzer and other important factors that our experienced attorneys can identify and bring to light.

The defense attorneys at our firm offer a team approach, providing our clients with access to the skills of a group of experienced lawyers. Clients benefit from round-the-clock legal support.

Don’t bury your head in the sand and hope this charge goes away. Certainly don’t rely on the public defender’s office to stumble on a miracle resolution. Call us today and trust your case with a proven winning team.
