Understanding the Penalties for 2nd DUI/DWI in New York

The state of New York takes a tough stance against multiple DUI/DWI offenses, aiming to deter individuals from engaging in dangerous behavior behind the wheel. The penalties for multiple DUI/DWI convictions can be very severe and can have a lasting impact on various aspects of your life. It is crucial to understand the potential consequences you might face:

  • License Suspension or Revocation: Multiple DUI/DWI convictions can lead to extended periods of license suspension or even permanent revocation, depriving you of your driving privileges and affecting your mobility.
  • Fines and Financial Impact: The fines for multiple DUI/DWI convictions can accumulate significantly, leading to a substantial financial burden. Court costs and fees can further compound these fines.
  • Jail Time: Repeated DUI/DWI offenses often carry mandatory minimum jail sentences, ranging from several days to months or even years, relying on the number of prior convictions and the case circumstances.
  • Ignition Interlock Device: New York law may require the installation of an ignition interlock device in your vehicle, which stops the vehicle from starting if alcohol is detected on your breath.
  • Criminal Record: Convictions for multiple DUI/DWI offenses result in a permanent criminal record, potentially impacting your employment prospects, housing options, and more.

Effective Defenses Against 2nd DUI/DWI Charges

Some potential defenses against multiple DUI/DWI charges include:

  • Unlawful Stop or Arrest: If law enforcement lacked proper cause to stop or arrest you, evidence collected during the stop may be inadmissible in court.
  • Improper Field Sobriety Tests: Our attorneys scrutinize the administration of field sobriety tests to ensure they were conducted correctly and fairly, as errors can impact the validity of the results.
  • Breathalyzer Calibration Issues: Breathalyzer devices must be regularly calibrated and maintained. Any deviations from proper calibration protocols may cast suspicion on the accuracy of the test results.
  • Violation of Miranda Rights: If you were not informed of your Miranda rights during the arrest process, your statements may be inadmissible in court.
  • Rising Blood Alcohol Content (BAC): It takes time for alcohol to be completely absorbed into the bloodstream. We may argue that your BAC was still rising at the time of the arrest, potentially leading to a higher reading than your actual level of impairment.

    "SAVED MY LICENSE"
    My lawyer helped save my license from a suspension. If I can't drive I can't work or feed my family. They were always on top of my case and helped me continue to drive for a living. I spoke with all three partners and each one knew about my case and helped each step of the way. Vanessa the manager was so helpful and didn't mind that I called every day.

    "Trust me, he's your guy!!"
    I had a complicated situation with 3 tickets and was in danger of losing my licence. Martin negotiated with the prosecutor, got my tickets reduced and I was able to keep my license. If you have traffic tickets, trust me, he's your guy!!
    Satisfied Client
    "I walked out with my best possible outcome."

    After receiving a ticket for driving in a construction zone, I reached out to Marty who was highly recommended to me. Marty was terrific and clearly laid out all the possible scenarios. Sometimes court can be overwhelming (points, no points, fine, reduced fine, guilty vs not guilty) yet Marty made everything simple and focused on what outcome was most important for me. Due to Marty, I walked in confident and walked out with my best possible outcome

    I hope to not be in court again for any type of traffic violation but Marty will be my first call if I need assistance and anyone else reading this should do the same.

    "Martin was honest, clear and available."
    This was my first time hiring an attorney for a ticket. I had a ticket for speeding in a school zone and was in jeopardy of having my license suspended. Martin was honest, clear and available. He just communicated with me and shared I was found not guilty!!! So grateful and thankful for Martin and his team!
    Satisfied Client
    "Honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security"
    I would like to personally thank Mr. Martin Kron for his help in getting a no left turn moving violation dismissed. I had a clean driving record with no moving violation and after speaking with Mr. Kron he made no guarantees and was honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security as to what the final turn out would be. He said he would only do his best and I gave him my case. I was extremely worried because it was an injustice based on the circumstances and Mr. Kron was able to get the moving violation to dismiss and I thank him very much. I recommend Mr. Kron for traffic violations without hesitation, and again I say "Thank You" Mr. Kron.
