The Kugel Law Firm, stationed in the heart of New Jersey, is a steadfast legal institution that supports clients accused of DUI offenses. Our DUI attorneys work diligently to protect the rights of our clients, guiding them through the complex legal landscape, and offering strong representation.

Our team of DUI attorneys in New Jersey provides a range of services designed to assist clients during their challenging times. We offer DWI Defense, DWI Rights, DWAI by Drugs, DWI Penalties, and representation in cases of DWI Causing Injury or Death. Our goal is to safeguard your rights throughout your legal journey.

Q: Should I engage a lawyer if plea bargaining a DWI isn't permissible in New Jersey?
A: Yes, even though New Jersey law doesn't allow plea bargaining in drunk driving cases, a skilled criminal defense lawyer can identify a significant issue related to the State’s capacity to prove their case. If the State fails to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt conclusively, the charge could be downgraded or even dismissed, based on the severity of the issue.

Q: How long does a DWI stay on your record in New Jersey?
A: A DWI arrest or conviction is recorded permanently. However, a previous DWI conviction isn't considered when deciding the penalty for a new DWI charge after ten years have passed. For example, if you were convicted of DWI 12 years ago, and you're now facing DWI charges, the court will treat the current case as a "first" DWI.

Q: What happens if I refuse the Alcotest for a DWI?
A: Under New Jersey's "implied consent" law, if you're suspected of drunk driving, you're required to take a chemical test of your BAC, usually done with an Alcotest. Refusing this test when asked by an officer can lead to a charge of Refusal to Take Breath Tests, in addition to your DWI charge. A "Refusal" is a separate offense, so you can be penalized for violating New Jersey's implied consent law even if you're not ultimately convicted of DUI/DWI. This refusal can be interpreted as an admission of guilt in court and carries separate penalties from a DWI conviction.
