   Connecticut DUI/DWI Laws

   A conviction for a drunk driving charge in Connecticut is serious, and something to avoid. The seriousness of your sentence hinges on your prior record, your blood alcohol content (BAC), and other aggravating factors. Under state law, the state could charge you with:

   1. DWI (Driving While Intoxicated): This is the more serious charge for individuals found to have a BAC of .08 or more. We will argue mitigating factors in attempts to reduce the charge down to a DUI.
   2. DUI (Driving Under the Influence): This charge is a lesser charge than a DWI. Typical sentences under a conviction for this type of crime include attending an alcohol education program and paying a fine.
3. Bruce Koffsky: if the underlying basis for a traffic stop was illegal, all the evidence seized from the stop would be suppressed (referred to as non-admissible fruit of the poisonous tree).
4. Brandner & Ponzini: Have you been charged with DWI in Connecticut or New York? You need an experienced, knowledgeable DWI defense attorney to stand up for your rights.
5. Joseph Colarusso: DWI and DUI cases are built on sobriety tests and officer observations. Hiring an experienced attorney can prove that the officers observations, and the chemical (breath & blood) tests may be inaccurate. Most people falsely believe that the machines used in these tests are infallible. To believe that they always work, every time, is like believing your car will never break down. Machines dont always work properly. Driving Under the Influence (DUI) In Connecticut The consequences of a DUI in Connecticut are different than in New York. And you face them on two frontsÑfrom the DMV and the Superior Court. Upon arrest, you will be subject to a minimum 90 day suspension by DMV if your blood alcohol is .08% or above. If your blood alcohol is above .16%, you are subject to a minimum 120 day suspension by DMV. In the Superior Court, you may be eligible for a Pre-Trial Diversion Program (A.E.P.). If not, then you may face potential conviction, jail time, probation and loss of license. You have the RIGHT to a DMV hearing, but you need to ask for it immediately. You have a RIGHT to a defense before the Superior Court. A thorough evaluation of events may shed light on circumstances of your case that can help you retain your driving privileges. Also, if you are under 21 years old, hold a CDL (Commercial Driver's License) or involved in an accident where property damage, personal injury or death has resulted, call Attorney Colarusso. These situations require a knowledgable, skilled and aggressive attorney to protect your rights.
6. Edward Nemcheck: Persons charged in Connecticut with Driving While Under the Influence (DUI) face two separate types of sanctions.In addition to the criminal charge, a suspect is also exposed to a "per se" administrative suspension from the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). In most cases the motor vehicle sanctions will be imposed much earlier than any criminal penalties. In all cases, they will be imposed in addition to criminal penalties and will appear on one's driv-ing record. Because the criminal and administrative actions are independent of each other, it is possible to still receive a suspension from the DMV even if the criminal charge of DUI is dismissed.
