Baltimore DUI Lawyer

DUI/DWI

If you have been arrested and charged with a DUI (driving under the influence) or DWI (driving while intoxicated), you should know that there are options to pleading guilty. If your arrest was not handled according to protocol, or the arresting officers were in violation of your rights during the process, you may be able to avoid the serious consequences of a conviction. When you contact Cohen & Dwin, our experienced Baltimore Criminal Attorney will fill you in on all of your options and advise you on how to move forward.

Your DUI/DWI Arrest

If you are charged with a DWI/DUI, your testing at the time of arrest showed a Blood Alcohol Concentration of .08 or above. Drunk driving arrests can happen in the blink of an eye, and you may still be confused about why the officer pulled you over, what the results of your breathalyzer test mean, or how roadside testing worked against you. The Baltimore DWI lawyers at Cohen & Dwin can give you the tools you need to protect your freedom to drive and prevent one bad night from affecting your future and your freedom.

The Crucial Role Of A DUI Defense Attorney

Baltimore DUI attorneys Barry Cohen (retired) and Harold Dwin can use their years of drunk driving defense experience to help you through the maze. We have witnessed far too many defendants suffer major, life-changing consequences when they could have achieved a much better outcome with legal help. We will steer your defense and show you the right ways to handle the charges against you. Even if you plan to plead guilty, there are things we can do to help you get a better result.

Here are a few of the factors we will investigate in regard to your defense:

  • Probable cause (reasons for pulling you over)
  • Blood alcohol content (BAC)
  • Breathalyzer test results
  • Roadside testing
  • Officer intimidation, unfair treatment, or illegal practices

Do not sit and wait for your penalties to be handed out. Let our DWI attorneys in Baltimore show you what steps you need to take and how being proactive about your charges can make a difference. Keep in mind that Maryland state law says that you must be “guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.” If there is any doubt, or if there are any holes in the case against you, we will uncover the important truth.
