DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED (DWI)

The Rehm Law Firm provides representation to those accused of a crime in Suffolk County, New York.  Specifically, the firm focuses on driving while intoxicated charges (DWI) and traffic violations.  Whether you were issued a Desk Appearance Ticket (DAT) or are currently in custody facing the arraignment, Suffolk County DWI Attorney Michael Rehm is the attorney to call.
There are many potential defenses when confronting a DWI charge. 


The first issue every DWI Lawyer should look at when analyzing a DWI charge is why was the vehicle pulled over?  If there is a suspect reason associated with the stop, then it should always be challenged.  If it can be shown that the vehicle was stopped without the requisite legal justification, the case can be dismissed in its entirety.  The 4th Amendment protects against unreasonable search and seizure, and if the officer stopped your vehicle for no reason or for a reason that is false, then that fact needs to be brought to the court’s attention.
Even if there is a valid reason for stopping your vehicle, the matter is far from done.
 
Did the officer read you your Miranda rights? 
Did the officer explain the field sobriety tests correctly? 
Was your blood alcohol level rising—had the alcohol actually absorbed into your bloodstream when you were driving, or had it absorbed into your bloodstream only after taken to the police station (which generally takes 45 minutes to an hour) to be given the breath, blood or urine test? 

This represents only a fraction of the issues associated with any DWI case.  The prosecution has the burden of proof, and when facing a competent attorney, it is still a great burden to overcome.
