DWI
DWI Defense in Brooklyn and Manhattan
If you were stopped for DWI or DWAI in New York City, the clock starts before you leave the precinct. License issues, chemical tests, and the first court appearance move fast. I am Lowell Sidney. I am a former Kings County prosecutor with about 20 years of criminal defense experience, and I take private DWI clients in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
I handle:
- Driving while intoxicated (DWI)
- Driving while ability impaired (DWAI), including by drugs
- First-offense and subsequent offenses
- Refusals and chemical-test issues
- Related traffic and criminal charges from the same stop
A first DWI is often exactly the kind of case a working person can and should hire private counsel for. The difference is preparation before arraignment and a lawyer who will actually be in court, not a form letter from a marketing firm.
