An Attorney's Analysis of Westchester or Rockland Traffic Stops
Just as an arrest needs to be supported by probable cause, a traffic stop needs to be supported by a police officer's reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing. In a DWI case, the arresting officer needs to be able to state what just what observations led to the suspicion of drunk driving. It will be up to the judge in a close case to decide whether that suspicion was reasonable.
The defense attorneys of Greenspan & Greenspan have the experience with New York DWI defense necessary to help them spot the signs of unlawful traffic stops based on the officer's lack of reasonable suspicion. If we can show that the officer had no legal right to stop your vehicle, we will have a good chance at dismissal of the case or a significantly reduced charge.

An officer has no business stopping you for no reason at all. One of the surest ways to resolve a DWI arrest on favorable terms is to show that the officer had no reasonable suspicion that could support a decision to pull you over, but in most cases it is not easy to make this showing. Nevertheless, the reasonable suspicion issue is one of the first things an experienced lawyer looks at in exploring your defense options.
Even if the traffic stop stands up to our challenge, there still might be a question as to whether there was probable cause to support the arrest.
