A DWI Can Change Your Entire Life

It is important that in this crucial moment, you get an experienced and strong DWI defense that will mitigate the possible damage to your career and future as much as possible.

A DWI is traumatic and embarrassing, and can result in serious consequences. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that there are roughly 1.5 million arrests of impaired drivers each year and one-third are repeat offenders. Whether this is your first alcohol-related offense or you are a repeat DWI offender, the aftermath of this crime can have a significant personal and professional impact on your life that only an experienced and seasoned attorney can help mitigate.

In the State of New York, Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is a crime and, if convicted, will result in a criminal record, suspension and/or revocation of your driving privileges, expensive Court and DMV fines, an increase in your insurance rates, and possible jail time or probation. In addition to these negative impacts, driving classes, substance abuse counseling, and/or an ignition interlock device for your vehicle may be mandated. A conviction for DWI may prevent you from future employment, especially where driving is required. It may also restrict military service options and travel to other countries, including Canada.

With so much at stake, it is necessary to obtain an experienced and specialized lawyer to provide guidance and protection in order to obtain the best possible outcome of your DWI. As the former Head of the DWI Bureau with the Erie County District Attorney’s Office, Mario A. Giacobbe has the experience, knowledge and specific skills required to represent defendants arrested for DWI, including misdemeanor and felony DWI’s, Aggravated DWI’s, DWI fatalities, serious injury accidents caused by alcohol, and DWI refusals. Mr. Giacobbe has trained various City, Town, and Village Police Departments throughout Erie County, including the New York State Police and the Erie County Sheriff’s Departments on all aspects of DWI arrests. This training includes automobile fatalities, serious injury accidents, blood draws, chemical testing and more. There is simply no attorney in Western New York that has more knowledge, skill and experience than Mario A. Giacobbe to handle your DWI case.

  • "I have worked with Mr. Giacobbe on my father's Estate Planning consisting of his will, power of attorney and health care proxy. My dad lived in an assisted living facility and Mr. Giacobbe was kind enough to visit him there so we didn't have to go to his office. I would recommend using Mr. Giacobbe for all your Estate Planning needs!"

  • "I have known David Jaworski my entire adult life. We came of age together on the athletic fields of South Buffalo. I could always trust Dave as a friend as we grew up. As we became successful adults, I quickly learned to trust Dave for both his calm judgment and legal skills as the troubles life sometimes bring began to appear. Dave is a skilled negotiator, a powerful litigator and a brilliant legal mind. He is well versed on day to day legal issues, but demonstrates remarkable skill in areas other lawyers might be timid to test. I highly recommend David for any legal issues you might have. "
