Colwell, Colwell & Petroccione, Albany, New York, attorneys with 20 years of combined experience. Our attorney's have practiced in the Columbia County Public Defender's office, Albany County Public Defender's office, and the Columbia County's Department of Social Services.
Kevin Colwell still works part-time prosecuting cases in Hudson City Court.* Our broad experience means we can analyze a DWI arrest case from multiple viewpoints and find possibilities other lawyers might miss - and maybe we can help you keep your driver's license.
Call us to discuss any level of DWI charge:
- Driving while intoxicated (DWI): called "DUI" in neighboring states, this means your BAC was .08 or above
- Aggravated DWI: if your BAC was over .18 or more, your DWI arrest may result in "aggravated" charges
- Driving while ability impaired (DWAI): a lesser offense, charging that your ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by the consumption of alcohol.
Defending Against Felony DWI Charges
If you've been convicted of more than one DWI in 10 years, you may be facing felony charges. A felony conviction has serious consequences and should not be entered without representation by an attorney.
There are many ways we can help you fight these charges.
To explain all of the options for your defense would take more space than is available here. But we can give you a thorough case evaluation during your free initial consultation. To discuss defensive strategies following a DWI arrest, call us today at 866-974-9186 or 518-462-4242 or just contact our offices online.
