An arrest can be a confusing and distressing experience, especially if you have never been taken into police custody before. Fortunately, you have the right to speak to an attorney who can explain the process and answer your questions. It is important to understand that not every arrest will lead to a criminal charge or a conviction.
For over 25 years I have worked as an Upstate New York criminal defense lawyer. When you are facing legal accusations you need a good attorney on your side. I will fiercely advocate for your point of view, from the initial investigation through plea negotiation, and to trial if necessary. I also believe that legal trouble shouldn't necessarily lead to financial ruin, especially for first-time offenders.
A conviction for driving while intoxicated (sometimes called DWI, DUI, or driving under the influence) may have serious, long-term implications, even for a first-time offender. If you or a loved one is facing a DWI charge, you need to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible. There may have been procedural errors with respect to your arrest, or you may be able to assert other defenses that could help you avoid a conviction or get the charge reduced.
The penalties and other consequences for a conviction of driving while intoxicated (DWI) have grown increasingly harsh over the past few decades. Under current laws, even a first-time DWI offender may face jail time, fines, and other penalties. Many arrests do not lead to a conviction, however.
Saratoga County first-time DWI attorney Gregory P. Garofalo can knowledgeably review the circumstances of your arrest and formulate a defense strategy to minimize the consequences of the charge that you are facing.Generally speaking, the likelihood of a criminal conviction for a drunk driving offense hinges on the offender's blood alcohol content (or "BAC").

In an effort to prevent drunk driving accidents, New York imposes harsh penalties on people convicted of driving while intoxicated (DWI) offenses. Moreover, the legal and personal consequences of subsequent DWI convictions become progressively more severe. If you have been arrested for a second or third DWI offense, hiring an experienced criminal lawyer is essential to protect your rights.

What a great lawyer Gregory Garofal is. He got the speeding ticket dropped down to a non-moving violation with no points and just a small fine. He did all of the court stuff and always kept me updated. He made it easy to go through the process of getting a speeding ticket. I never had to attend court and insurance did not go up. He does a great job and really is very knowledgeable. He will go the extra mile for you for a low fee. I will always go to him if I get a ticket or have a problem.

I highly recommend Greg Garofalo if you get pulled over and receive a ticket. Mr. Garofalo helped me out with a traffic ticket that nobody wants. I knew navigating the court system is a huge hassle and stressful so having Greg handle the court process took the burden off me. It’s much better to have Greg inform you on updates with your case than having to talk to a court clerk, trust me on that. In the end Greg negotiated the best plea bargain for a ticket that I have ever gotten before. I was thrilled when he mailed me paperwork for a 0 point reduction. If you get pulled over talk to Greg Garofalo

Gregory Garofal is a wonderful lawyer. He really knows his stuff and gets great deals in court. He is always there to respond to you and takes his time to explain everything very well. Got the ticket dropped down to barely nothing. What a great guy! Would definitely go back to him if ever needed again. He would be my first choice.
