A Team Dedicated To DWI Defense
​
New Jersey has some of the harshest DWI laws in the country with mandatory penalties, which include heavy fines, a license suspension and jail time. But with an experienced DWI attorney, there is hope.
​
The most common way that an officer determines whether you are driving while intoxicated is through administering a breath test. Under New Jersey law, if your blood alcohol level registers over .08%, then you will be charged with a DWI. As a result, a large focus of drunk driving defense in NJ centers on challenging the breath test and the breath test equipment.
Mark Cintron devotes a large portion of his practice to DWI defense. He has successfully challenged hundreds of DWI arrests, which has led to reduced charges in most cases and even dismissal in other cases. Mark has also prosecuted numerous DWI cases as a Municipal Court Prosecutor. This unique insight into the Prosecution’s side of the case enables Mark to examine your case much like the Prosecutor will. As a result, Mark will be able to anticipate many of the State’s arguments and will be able to assess your best options.
As a Municipal Prosecutor, Mark has also received special instruction regarding the breath test instrument. This training has allowed Mark to learn about how the device has evolved, how it is built, how it functions and how to properly operate it. Mark is fully aware that the current breath test device is one of the most sophisticated breathalyzer machines in the nation. It is extremely accurate, which makes it increasingly difficult to dispute the results. However, due to Mark’s training and experience as a Municipal Prosecutor, he can often find problems with the breath test machine that others may not. To do so, he not only utilizes his own knowledge, but he consults with police experts on almost every case to make sure nothing is overlooked.
Mark has been recognized as a leading authority in DWI Practice in New Jersey. Mark has been appointed as co-chair and speaker at a variety of statewide seminar programs of the New Jersey Association for Justice and the Middlesex County Bar Association.
