DUI/DWI
Arrested for DWI or DUI? Terrazas Law Fights to Protect Your License, Record, and Freedom. A DUI arrest in New York can upend your life, license suspension, heavy fines, even jail time. But a charge is not a conviction.
Understanding DUI & DWI Charges in NYC
Under New York law, you're considered legally impaired if:
- Your Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) is 0.08% or higher, or
- You're impaired by drugs or a combination of alcohol and drugs, regardless of BAC.
Charges may include:
- Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)
- Driving While Ability Impaired by Alcohol (DWAI)
- Aggravated DWI (BAC 0.18% or higher)
- Underage DWI (BAC 0.02%–0.07%)
- Refusal to take a chemical test
Every case is different but the prosecution must prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. Our defense strategies may include:
- Challenging the legality of the traffic stop
- Disputing field sobriety test results
- Questioning breathalyzer calibration and administration
- Exposing violations of your constitutional rights
- Negotiating reduced charges or alternative sentencing
- Whether it’s your first DUI or you’re facing enhanced penalties for a repeat offense, we craft a tailored defense to minimize or eliminate the consequences.
