Protect Your Criminal Record and Your Driving Privileges
DWI Defense From Former Erie County Assistant District Attorney
If you or someone you love has been charged with a DWI or other traffic offense involving alcohol or drugs, you need to hire an experienced DWI defense lawyer to protect your rights. A knowledgeable DWI defense attorney will stand at your side, fight to keep your criminal record clear, and help you retain your driving privileges.
At the Law Offices of Norman Mattar, located in Williamsville, we represent clients in Buffalo and throughout Western New York who were charged with DWIs, DWAIs, underage DWI/DWAIs, and chemical test refusals. Every one of our firm's clients works directly with DWI/DUI defense lawyer Norman Mattar, an attorney with more than two decades of experience in criminal law.
We answer our telephones 24 hours a day and offer all DWI defense clients a free initial consultation. At that first confidential meeting, we will discuss the circumstances of the arrest, explain the process to you, and give a straightforward opinion about the best way to proceed.
You are not a criminal. Call toll-free at (800) 250-8473 or (716) 633-4300 to make an appointment. Our firm works with first offenders, repeat offenders, and clients charged with felony DWIs.
Keeping You on the Road: As part of our criminal defense services in DWI cases, we take every possible action to help our clients keep driving privileges after a DWI arrest.
Potential Penalties After a DWI Conviction
Our goal is to help you avoid a criminal record, prevent you from having to spend any time in jail, and allow you to keep your driver’s license. That being said, the potential penalties for a DWI conviction can include:
- Jail or prison time (differs for misdemeanor and felony offenses)
- Revocation or suspension of your driver's license
- Court-supervised probation
- Mandatory alcohol treatment, at your expense
- Ignition interlock device, which must be installed and maintained at your expense
- Severe fines
- Forfeiture of your vehicle
DWI and Criminal Defense for Canadian Drivers
Given our firm's proximity to the Canadian border, many of our prospective clients who have been arrested for a DWI are Canadian citizens who have been arrested in Buffalo or the surrounding communities of Erie County. Our firm will represent Canadians and help them get out of jail and return home as quickly as possible. Contact us today if you or someone you loved is facing DWI or criminal charges on the U.S. side of the border.
