A conviction for refusal to test (chemical test refusal) can result in a one-year driver's license revocation. However, you have a right to a hearing. If you retain our law office, we will ask the following questions on your behalf:

  • Did the police officer have a right to stop your vehicle?
  • Did the officer have reasonable grounds to believe you were intoxicated?
  • Did the officer give you a refusal warning?
  • Did you in fact refuse to take the test (by saying no or showing your refusal through your conduct)?

If you have been arrested for chemical test refusal in New York, contact our law office for assistance.
