DUI Lawyer Serving South Plainfield
A DUI stop in South Plainfield often starts on Interstate 287 or along Stelton Road (CR 529), and the charge that follows is handled at the South Plainfield Municipal Court on Plainfield Avenue.
New Jersey treats driving while intoxicated under N.J.S.A. 39:4-50, and one detail surprises most clients: plea agreements on a DUI in New Jersey are limited — allowed only since 2024 and never automatic. That makes the evidence itself the battleground. We examine why the officer initiated the stop, whether the required 20-minute observation period before the breath test was actually completed, and whether the Alcotest device was operated and calibrated to standard. If a refusal is alleged, that carries its own separate statute and penalties. From your first call, we map out the State's proofs against your case and look for the gaps. If you were pulled over near 287 or anywhere in South Plainfield and now face a 39:4-50 charge, we are ready to defend it.

Because 39:4-50 allows no automatic plea bargain (limited plea agreements allowed since 2024, never automatic), we focus on the stop, the 20-minute observation, Alcotest procedure, and any refusal allegation under its own statute.
