DWI/DWAI-related traffic matters
New York uses a point system to track driving offenses. Accumulating 11 points within 18 months can result in license suspension. Even a single violation can have lasting effects on your insurance premiums.
Examples:
Speeding 1–10 mph over limit = 3 points
Speeding 21–30 mph over limit = 6 points
Reckless driving = 5 points
Cell phone use = 5 points
Every case is different, but we often focus on:
Challenging radar or speed camera accuracy
Questioning the officer’s observations or testimony
Negotiating for reduced charges (such as a no-point violation)
Seeking dismissal if there are procedural or evidentiary errors
Local experience matters. We know the traffic courts, the prosecutors, and the specific procedures in Nassau County. This insight allows us to negotiate effectively and fight for the best possible outcome.
Don’t simply pay your ticket without understanding the consequences. You may have more options than you realize.
