Don't Let a New York State DWI Ruin Your Life


Consequences that can flow from a DWI arrest and prosecution include: loss of your driver’s license, heavy fines, court costs and extensive administrative fees, probation, jail or state prison, vehicle impoundment or forfeiture, an ignition interlock device put on your car, etc.  New York State treats Driving While Intoxicated (“DWI”) seriously. The DWI laws are strict.
New York DWI LawsAside from the more obvious legal consequences of dealing with the police, the courts, and the Department of Motor Vehicles (“DMV”), there are practical consequences that often flow from a DWI arrest or conviction. Since DWI is a crime, and a DWI conviction will give you a permanent “criminal” record, you could lose your job or be prevented certain future employment – especially if it is State job, is law enforcement associated, or involves driving. If you are a commercial driver, you could lose your privilege to drive commercially for at least one year. A DWI conviction can cause your insurance rates to skyrocket; sometimes insurance companies will cancel your coverage altogether. There are other, “hidden” DWI penalties, such as limitations on travel outside of the state or abroad. A DWI prosecution and conviction may bring community service and substance abuse treatment.
