I represent a client in Nassau County who was arrested for an Aggravated DWI (.18 blood alcohol reading). That is over twice the legal limit. In addition, he was involved in a motor vehicle accident. Despite both of these aggravating factors, each of which would normally result in no reduction, I was able to convince the District Attorney’s Office to reduce the charge to Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI) which is nothing more than a traffic infraction. All in a day’s work.
