Lakehurst NJ DWI Attorneys

DUI Offense in Lakehurst New Jersey

The Borough of Lakehurst is a rural community in Ocean County that has many more DWI charges than you might anticipate for a town that is only about one square mile with approximately 2,900 residents. Most of the driving under the influence of drugs, alcohol, and breath test refusal offenses are issued to non-residents operating along New Jersey Route 70, New Jersey Route 37 and County Route 547. Over 50 violations of this nature were issued during the last one year period published by the New Jersey Administrative Office of the Courts so you certainly are not alone if you were arrested and charged with DWI in Lakehurst New Jersey.

Hiring a Skilled Lakehurst DWI Lawyer is Your Best Option for Success

The period following a DWI arrest can be chaotic and confusing. The initial reaction of many is a feeling of defenselessness and depression. This is natural but not based in reality as DUI charges are defeated in many more cases than you probably think. Although there is no plea bargaining in driving while intoxicated proceedings in Lakehurst Municipal Court or elsewhere in the state, the police are required to adhere to a stringent protocol in terms of field testing, breathalyzer operation and collection of blood samples. There are also requirements that must be met in order for a motor vehicle stop to be valid. An attorney who is exceptionally experienced in defending a DWI offense, especially one in Lakehurst, can dissect the facts of a case and isolate instances where the police deviated from the accepted standard. When this occurs and only when this happens, a viable basis for a dismissal exists in a drunk driving case. So the key to achieving a favorable outcome is finding the most highly qualified lawyer you can afford to represent you. One that can provide you with the very best opportunity to identify a genuine legal issue that will allow or require the judge to find you not guilty of DWI.
