What are my chances of winning a DWI case?
There is simply no way of placing numerical odds of success on any case; including a DWI charge. Further, it is clear that New Jersey’s firm public policy stance against DWI makes the defense of this charge a challenge even for an experienced, competent and aggressive defense attorney. The only guarantee any qualified, ethical and competent attorney can offer is to aggressively prepare your case, and carefully and thoroughly look for available defenses. I am frequently asked by people who call me what my success rate is like my batting average. I have been a lawyer since 1991. I have never compiled all of my cases one day when I get the time and motivation to dig through all of my files, I might publish every case I have handled. So, without knowing an exact figure, I am reluctant to tout a success rate. I just do not want to give out a figure that is not accurate.
