Operating Under the Influence Attorneys

Halloran Sage DWI defense attorneys have significant experience handling cases that involve operating under the influence of alcohol and drugs, and any associated license suspension penalties applied by the State of Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles. Our DWI lawyers have litigated hundreds of cases successfully. We are well versed in this ever-changing area of law and can assist in navigating cases through the courts.

Our experience includes representing first offenders for DWI and multiple offenders, who face significantly harsher penalties. Our DWI attorneys handle cases involving operating under the influence of alcohol or drugs in all courts across the State of Connecticut.

Arrests for DWI can result from:

  • Sobriety roadblocks or checkpoints,
  • Erratic operation of a motor vehicle,
  • Failure of field tests, and
  • Field sobriety tests.

Charged with a Connecticut DWI a person can face:

  • Jail time and / or Driver’s License suspension

Persons with commercial drivers’ licenses face significantly harsher penalties.

Connecticut law also requires all persons arrested for operating under the influence to install and utilize an ignition interlock device in any motor vehicle they operate, with few exceptions.

Experienced DWI attorneys at our firm can provide critical representation and assistance in managing the outcome of DWI arrests.

Our Criminal Law Practice Area Chair, Christopher McCarthy, is available for consultation 24 hours a day. Call 860.297.4637 or email mccarthy@halloransage.com.
