Biography
Mark S. Cossuto is one of the most highly sought after DWI defense attorneys in New York City. His stellar reputation for delivering favorable outcomes for his clients has enabled him to build a law practice based almost entirely on referrals.
His clients appreciate his compassionate yet tenacious approach when tackling a DWI charge. Whether you were wrongly accused or had a lapse in judgment, you will receive the same level of respect and representation as everyone else.
As your attorney, my main objective is to get the charges against you dismissed or reduced. If this can’t be achieved, I will negotiate with the prosecutor to minimize any penalties that may be imposed. I understand how high the stakes are and will fight tirelessly on your behalf to preserve your freedom, save your driving privileges, and keep your record clean.
No one ever wants to see those red and blue flashing lights in their rearview mirror. Being pulled over by a cop is a very unsettling experience, especially if you’ve been suspected of drinking and driving. Performing sobriety tests on the side of the road and being handcuffed can leave you feeling ashamed, humiliated, and worried about how much trouble you’re really in.
Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is a serious criminal offense in New York. In fact, the state’s DWI laws are among the toughest in the nation. A DWI conviction can lead to the loss of driving privileges, higher auto insurance rates, substantial fines, and even jail time. Having a criminal record can damage your reputation, strain your relationships, and affect future employment prospects.
