As advocates for motorists accused of drinking and driving, drug-impaired motor vehicle operation and other alcohol-related violations, I and my colleagues maintain a healthy skepticism when it comes to charges levied by local and state police against drivers. But being skeptical of law enforcement officials does not mean that we do not respect the job that police officers do for our community.
Similarly, as officers of the court, we have a responsibility to the truth. One thing we do know is that fabricating stories in an effort to reduce guilt or avoid justice altogether is not the best course for most people who seek justice from the courts. Taking statements from all sides with a grain of salt allows one to keep an open mind and lends better perspective to important legal matters.
When it comes to being accused of drunken driving, most people want to avoid any consequences. As New Jersey DWI defense attorneys, I and my experienced team of trial lawyers understand the law and can use our skills and training to best advantage for our clients. This is important, since a conviction for driving under the influence can result in penalties ranging from the loss of one's license to heavy fines and even jail time.
