From traffic tickets murder, all we do is criminal defense.

Drunk driving is a hot button issue nationwide. Police become more aggressive. Prosecutors and judges feel pressure from various groups and organizations. Because of that, many of our clients are seeing their rights violated and sometimes wrongly accused and convicted of DWI/DUI/DWAI. At The Law Office of James W. Winslow, P.C., in Newburgh, New York, we will fight to protect your rights.

Minor Traffic Violations Becoming DWI/DUI/DWAI Arrests

At The Law Office of James W. Winslow, P.C., DWI/DUI/DWAI cases are the most common aspect of our criminal defense practice. A minor traffic violation could result in a police officer conducting a battery of chemical and field sobriety tests on you. If the officer suspects you of drinking, an arrest will happen.

Contact us immediately following your drunk driving arrest. There are issues related to the criminal and administrative aspects of your case that need attention right away. That includes automatic license suspension prior to any conviction. An experienced DWI/DUI/DWAI lawyer can make all the difference in how you are treated and the outcome of your case. Contact us.

Investigating your DWI/DUI/DWAI Case

The probable cause for the initial stop and the procedures used in testing must be within the law and must not violate your rights. We will review the arrest record and all test results. In court proceedings, the arresting officer will be aggressively cross-examined. We understand that you have a lot at stake when facing charges of drinking and driving and we will work hard to help you protect your rights.

The Local Political Atmosphere Involving DWI/DUI/DWAI Cases

Elected district attorneys and judges need to answer to their electorate. A perception of being soft on drunk driving will motivate the pressure groups to campaign against their reelection. You could end up caught in the middle of this political battlefield. That is one of the many reasons to retain a seasoned DWI/DUI/DWAI defense attorney to resolve your drunk driving case.
