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.

Your Rights After a Multiple Offense DUI Charge

Facing multiple DUI charges can be overwhelming, but it's crucial to understand your rights throughout the legal process. At Martin A. Kron & Associates, P.C., we believe that informed clients are empowered clients. Knowing your rights can help you navigate the complexities of the legal system and make the best decisions for your future.

Here are some key rights you should be aware of:

The Right to Remain Silent: You do not have to answer questions or provide information that may incriminate you.
The Right to Legal Representation: You have the right to consult with an attorney before speaking to law enforcement or making any legal decisions.
The Right to a Fair Trial: Every individual is entitled to a fair trial, which includes the right to present evidence and cross-examine witnesses.
The Right to Challenge Evidence: You can dispute the validity of the evidence against you, including breathalyzer results and field sobriety tests.
The Right to Appeal: If convicted, you have the right to appeal the decision, potentially reducing penalties or overturning the conviction.

Understanding these rights is the first step in building a strong defense. Our experienced attorneys are dedicated to ensuring that your rights are protected at every stage of the process. Contact us today to discuss your case and explore your options for effective representation.

Understanding Local DUI/DWI Challenges in New York City

New York City is a bustling metropolis with a unique set of challenges when it comes to DUI/DWI charges. The city's dense traffic, numerous checkpoints, and vigilant law enforcement make it a hotspot for DUI/DWI arrests. Navigating these complexities requires a deep understanding of the local landscape and the specific issues faced by residents and visitors alike.

One of the significant pain points for individuals facing multiple DUI/DWI charges in New York City is the potential for severe penalties, including extended license suspension or revocation. This can be particularly debilitating in a city where driving is often essential for commuting to work, especially in areas less accessible by public transportation. The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) plays a crucial role in enforcing these penalties, and understanding their procedures is vital for mounting an effective defense.

Additionally, the financial burden of multiple DUI/DWI convictions can be overwhelming. Fines, court costs, and the potential requirement for an ignition interlock device can add up quickly. The New York City Department of Finance is responsible for collecting these fines, and their stringent collection practices can exacerbate the financial strain on individuals already facing legal challenges.

At Martin A. Kron & Associates, P.C., we are well-versed in the intricacies of New York City's legal environment. We understand the local court systems, including the New York City Criminal Court, and have experience dealing with the New York Police Department (NYPD) and their DUI/DWI enforcement tactics. Our familiarity with these local entities allows us to provide a robust defense tailored to the specific circumstances of your case.

We also recognize the importance of community resources in supporting individuals facing DUI/DWI charges. Organizations such as the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene offer programs and resources for those struggling with alcohol dependency, which can be a valuable component of a comprehensive defense strategy.

By leveraging our knowledge of New York City's unique challenges and resources, we are committed to helping you navigate the complexities of multiple DUI/DWI charges. Our goal is to minimize the impact on your life and provide you with the best possible defense, ensuring that you have the support and guidance you need every step of the way.

"I was out of the court in 20 minutes."
Marty is a professional, and a very caring person. Recently on my way to daughters graduation, I entered HOV lane at GW Bridge. On his advise I pleaded guilty but the points were waived. He met me at the court and we went before the judge right away and I was out of the court in 20 minutes.

Satisfied Client
"Martin took care of two tickets that were worth 8 points on my license!"
Martin and his team were so professional, attentive, and responsive. I recommend Martin 100%!! Thank you so much. Very very much appreciated.

Christine
"Martin is the perfect person for this job."
As a former NYS Traffic Law Judge and having previously sat where the Judges before him now sit, Martin is the perfect person for this job. Besides a plethora of experience on and off the bench, he's kind and honest, he listens and is attentive to your concerns, is straightforward and most importantly, gives out reasonable expectations. He always returns phone calls in a timely manner and makes himself accessible even on weekends. And to top it off, he even has a sense of humor. Hope I never have to hire him again, but if the situation arises, he's my go-to guy!

Margie
"I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything."
I had 3 cell phone violations within 18 months, which by law subjects me to license suspension. Mr. Kron and I deferred our case 4 times which is the maximum. When we finally decided to plead me guilty, Mr. Kron did everything within his power to reason with the judge for leniency-and he succeeded!! I was found guilty, have to pay a fine, but will be able to keep on driving which is extremely important for me to maintain my lifestyle. Most importantly, during this process, I was a nervous wreck. Mr. Kron was immediate in his responses to my inquiries----almost replying to my texts before I hit send!! I cannot thank this man enough... I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything. He did an absolutely wonderful job for me. One final thought. You know how you read about or see about everything else that works for other people but never works for you? This is a case where this guy was an angel and delivered me the best possible outcome. I am a very lucky man today because of Mr. Kron.

Brian
"He was always calm and patient with me."
Martin is absolutely the best at what he does! He helped me from beginning to end with an improper cell phone use ticket. He made himself available for me consistently and returned my calls if he wasn't able to speak. He explained things in detail and answered all my questions. I literally bugged this man with questions because of my anxiety and he was always calm and patient with me. On the date of my court hearing, I walk right in and right out as he tells me I got your case dismissed. I had the biggest smile on my face and I was certainly relieved. Hands down he is an excellent communicator and is surely effective! Thank you, Martin!

Tasha
"Martin A. Kron got me off with a warning."
In September 2015 I was faced with a very serious New York City traffic violation. I was very upset with the predicament I had gotten myself into & reached out to Martin A. Kron for legal counsel. Subsequent to explaining what happened Martin agreed to handle my case & assured me I was in good hands - at this point I formally retained Martin. I sweated out a possible suspended license - I was humiliated, embarrassed & humbled by the sheer recklessness of my actions. I swore to myself that if I got off with just a warning I would never ever disobey the traffic laws again. Via his expert legal acumen & experience, Martin A. Kron got me off with a warning. I strongly recommend The Law Offices of Martin A. Kron to anyone facing a traffic violation. In summary, do not disobey the traffic laws - the consequences are just not worth it.

Robert
"Martin and Vanessa are superlative professionals, and I can't recommend them highly enough!"
Martin took on my case for a flat rate and guaranteed a full refund if he couldn't reverse the suspension. Three weeks later, my license was fully restored!

John L.
"Very professional and quick."
I'm happy to say today my wife was able to finally get her new license plates for NJ after the NY suspension was completely wiped from her record. Amazing turnaround. I like their no-nonsense approach.
