OUTCOME: Reduced Charge
A Canadian resident was arrested for DWI in Buffalo following a Buffalo Bills football game. The client had a high breath test reading and was looking at a long revocation of his driving privileges. Af ... ter trial I was able to convince the court that the test reading was flawed. The judge found my client guilty of a reduced charged of Driving While Impaired. This spared the motorist a criminal record.
OUTCOME: Minimal Points, No Driving School
A Buffalo woman was charged with DWI and several traffic tickets, including Leaving the Scene of an Accident. She took the Breathalyzer test and blew a .23 BAC. We took this case to trial and I was suc ... cessful in keeping the breath test reading from being introduced into evidence. At the close of the trial she was found not guilty of DWI and convicted of the lesser non-criminal charge of DWAI. The traffic tickets, including the Leaving the Scene of an Accident, were dismissed. A man was charged in Buffalo with a DWI and failing to submit to a breath test. He was entitled to a hearing on whether the breath test request was authorized by law. At the refusal hearing the judge found that the officers lacked a legal basis for arresting my client for DWI. The judge granted my request to have my client’s license restored. A Buffalo man was recently charged with DWI and a traffic ticket of leaving the scene of an accident. My client was not found at the scene of the accident but was arrested walking near his home about thirty minutes later. Although there were no witnesses that saw him driving this vehicle, he was still charged with DWI. After a trial was held in City Court of Buffalo, my client was acquitted of the DWI and his full driving privileges were restored. A teenager was recently charged with felony possession of drugs following an arrest at Darien Lake Amusement Park. She had in her possession a large quantity of pills. After conferring with the District Attorney at Darien Lake Town Court, we were able to show that these pills were lawfully prescribed and the felony charge was ultimately dismissed. This young woman’s record was then sealed. A young man was charged in Buffalo with DWI and refusing to take the breath test. At the time he only possessed a learner’s permit. Normally, he would not be able to receive a restricted license at the conclusion of the DWI case if he still had a learner’s permit. I was able to convince the judge to extend the case for several months to allow my client to take a road test and receive a regular license. At the conclusion of his DWI case, he was able to get a restricted license. A Pennsylvania woman was charged with speeding 23 mph over the limit. This traffic ticket in Buffalo exposed her to receiving 6 points on her license, driving school and a large increase in her insurance. She attempted to negotiate with the prosecutor for a reduction in her ticket. Unfortunately, she was unsuccessful. After contacting my firm we were able to resolve her ticket with minimal points, no driving school and she didn’t have to return to Buffalo for her court date.
OUTCOME: Charges Dismissed
A University of Buffalo student was charged with shoplifting at a local mall. He was arrested with two other students. The accusing papers were vague as to my client’s involvement. The court agreed wit ... h my argument that they were legally insufficient and dismissed the charges at his first appearance. The court also granted my request to seal his record
OUTCOME: Not Guilty
A commercial trucker was stopped at a roadblock and arrested for DWI. This trucker was not a U.S. citizen and possessed an out-of-state commercial drivers license. If he were convicted of the DWI traff ... ic ticket, he would lose his license and possibly be banned from entering this country. During a trial in Buffalo City Court I was able to attack the breath test reading. After trial the defendant was found not guilty of all DWI charges as well as his other traffic tickets.
OUTCOME: Dismissed
Recently, a client was charged with Reckless Driving and 10 other traffic tickets in Niagara Falls City Court. She was a truck driver who depended on her license for her family’s livelihood. It was imm ... ediately apparent that most of these traffic tickets were overcharged or simply not provable. After speaking with the assistant district attorney I was able to negotiate a plea to one parking violation. The remaining traffic tickets were dismissed. I argued to the judge not to impose a fine and my request was granted.
