New York DWI Lawyer Helps Clients Fight the Harsh Consequences of a Driving While Intoxicated Arrest

New York now has some of the toughest DWI laws in the country, even for first offenders. If you or a loved one has been arrested for driving while intoxicated or driving while ability impaired in New York, contact an experienced DWI defense lawyer immediately. Peter J. Schaffer, a criminal defense lawyer with 24 years experience, helps his clients fight the harsh consequences of a New York DWI arrest.

Peter J. Schaffer has been a practicing trial lawyer in Bronx, New York since 1987. Since that time, he has represented thousands of individuals accused of a wide range of crimes, including Driving While Intoxicated ("DWI") and Driving While Ability Impaired ("DWAI"). He has seen the harsh changes in the laws governing drinking and driving.

Drinking driving enforcement and prosecution are more effective as a result of New York State’s STOP-DWI law. Every county in New York State has a STOP-DWI program. This results in more police with better equipment the roads looking for drinking impaired drivers, more district attorneys prosecuting them, and more judges hearing drinking and driving cases.

Mr. Schaffer fights these charges in local criminal courts, New York Supreme Court and at the DMV. He is mindful of the harsh consequences that a DWI conviction has on individuals - a criminal record, losing one's license, forfeiture of your automobile.
