Who Can Challenge Field Sobriety Test Results in a New York DWI Case?

A New York DWI defense lawyer can challenge field sobriety test evidence. Police commonly use the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, walk-and-turn test, and one-leg stand test to support an arrest. These tests depend heavily on an officer’s observations and proper administration, and they are affected by road conditions, weather, lighting, footwear, medical conditions, injuries, fatigue, and nervousness.

Matthew Cohan and his team examine body-camera footage, officer training records, test instructions, environmental conditions, and compliance with standardized testing procedures. 

As a former prosecutor, Matthew Cohan understands how police and prosecutors use field sobriety evidence and how to challenge unreliable or improperly administered tests.
