Passaic County DWI

The sight of flashing lights in your rearview mirror while traveling through Passaic County after a night out on the town is never a good sight. The traffic stop may begin innocently enough, but an officer who smells alcohol on your breath or who sees one or more “clues of impairment” will conduct a driving while intoxicated (DWI) investigation to determine if your alcohol level is over the legal limit and/or if you are too impaired to drive. The result of this investigation may be one or more nights in jail, hundreds of dollars in fines, loss of driving privileges, and other consequences.

Your night out with your friends or family members does not have to result in such severe consequences. With the help of a tenacious and resourceful Passaic County DWI law firm like Aretsky Law Group, P.C., you may be able to avoid a conviction for DWI and/or many of the harshest penalties associated with a DWI conviction.

Your Passaic County DWI case begins with a traffic stop and an officer forming probable cause to believe you violated New Jersey Revised Statutes Section 39:4-50 (New Jersey’s DWI statute). You will likely be placed under arrest: from there, your case will then likely proceed through the system and may result in a trial, where a judge will determine whether you did, in fact, violate the DWI statute.

Retaining an experienced Passaic County DWI attorney early is critical to ensure your rights are protected throughout the pendency of your case. Failing to file a motion at the proper time or lodging an objection in a timely manner can negatively impact your case and your chances for a successful outcome.
