Facing a DWI Charge in Deptford Township

The area around Deptford Township features multiple major transportation routes, which include Interstate 295 and Routes 41, 42, and 45, as well as County Routes 534, 544, 551, and 553. Since there are 150 miles of roads in the township, the potential for being stopped on suspicion of DWI is great. Although DWI is a traffic offense rather than a criminal charge in New Jersey, it is the most serious traffic offense in the state. As a traffic offense, there is no right to a jury trial in a DWI case, leaving that responsibility up to a single judge. Furthermore, the penalties for a DWI conviction can be significant, especially if it is a second or third offense. There is a required amount of jail time for third or later offenses, and jail time is also a possibility for first and second offenses in some situations. Given these factors, it is important to have a zealous Deptford DWI attorney on your side who can fight for your rights by using their thorough knowledge of the applicable laws and procedures.

There are many possible ways to challenge a DWI in New Jersey, depending on the circumstances. An individual's rights could have been violated due to an illegal stop, whereby a police officer did not have the proper basis to pull them over. Some field sobriety tests can also be compromised due to an individual's medical issues, for example. Problems with other testing procedures or machines may also have been contributing factors during your arrest. An experienced DWI lawyer in the Deptford area may utilize independent and expert witnesses to ensure that your version of events is properly heard. All DWI cases in Deptford are heard at the Deptford Township Municipal Court, which is located at 1011 Cooper Street. Court sessions are held each Wednesday, starting at 8:00 a.m.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
This firm is arguably the best representation money can buy. Highly adept and committed, Evan makes himself available all hours of the day to provide accurate and concise answers to any questions/concerns and put your mind at ease. I was highly satisfied with the results he and his team delivered. Worth every penny. T.N.
★★★★★
I express my utmost gratitude to Evan Levow. When I met Evan, I was charged with a DUI, with a prior DUI 10 years ago. Before that case was over, I unfortunately received another DUI, and was now facing 180 days in jail. In both cases, Evan got the DUI's dismissed! Evan and his team demonstrate knowledge, expertise, professionalism, perseverance, and much more. There is a passion for justice in this firm and I witnessed that "fire" in Evan. Thank You so much. F.C.
★★★★★
You dug through the facts of my case thoroughly and found all the errors that were made by the officers. From the breathalyzer error, to the observed time error, to my condition, to my foot failing the balance test, you dug out all the facts, and I am grateful for that. I am back to my career which is a bus driver and once again thank you. D.B.
