Schenectady DWI Defense Attorney
New York Attorneys for Aggressive Felony DWI Defense
When you or someone you care about has been arrested for drunk driving or "driving while intoxicated" (DWI), it may have been a shock to learn that this DWI is a felony charge. Fairly recent changes in New York state laws extended the basic "look-back" period from five to 10 years. Consequently, even though a prior conviction occurred as long as 10 years ago, you may be dealing with felony DWI.
At the Law Offices of Mark J. Sacco, PLLC, you will find two New York felony DWI lawyers who are determined and non-judgmental, yet realistic. We are committed to helping our clients make the most beneficial and practical decisions about their felony DWI defense.

A Serious Charge That Calls for Experienced, Focused Legal Representation
