About Karl Martin
Karl Martin Myles built a practice around one of the more technical areas of criminal law. He keeps his sentences direct in court. He also spends long hours behind the scenes reviewing reports, test results and police records.
He studied at Michigan State University before attending Michigan State University College of Law. His time at MSU provided a blend of classroom and practical exposure. The law school gave him grounding in criminal procedure and evidence, subjects that would shape the work he would do later.
Myles is licensed to practice in New York. He established a practice that handles driving-while-intoxicated cases and related matters. Over the years he has represented clients at arraignments, pretrial hearings and trials. He also appears in administrative proceedings that affect driving privileges. He works from offices under the name DWI Lawyer Karl Myles.
The cases he takes often turn on technical rules and testing protocols. Courts and prosecutors look closely at traffic stops, field sobriety tests and chemical testing procedures. Myles focuses on the procedural and evidentiary issues that those records reveal. He spends time dissecting police reports, laboratory results and dash-camera footage. He also evaluates whether arrests and searches met constitutional requirements.
Clients describe him as direct and pragmatic. He lays out options plainly and explains possible outcomes. He handles negotiations with prosecutors and represents clients at hearings when plea bargains are on the table. When cases proceed to trial he manages witness preparation and cross-examination. He is comfortable arguing evidentiary motions and contesting the admissibility of test results.
Outside court, Myles works to stay familiar with changes in testing technology and state law. He attends seminars on evidentiary developments and keeps an eye on appellate decisions that affect DWI practice. He also collaborates with experts when scientific issues are central to a defense. He maintains offices under the name DWI Lawyer Karl Myles and practices DWI and related criminal defense matters in New York.
