Strategic DUI and Motor Vehicle Crime Representation

Connecticut enforces incredibly strict penalties for Driving Under the Influence (DUI/DWI), including mandatory license suspensions, steep fines, and ignition interlock device requirements. Attorney Urso has defended over a thousand drivers, challenging field sobriety testing procedures, blood-alcohol level testing accuracy, and unlawful police stops. Whether you are facing a first-time infraction or a multi-offense felony charge, we explore every legal avenue-including Connecticut's alcohol education programs-to protect your driving privileges and preserve a clean driving record.

Dedicated Domestic Violence and Family Assault Advocacy

An arrest for domestic violence requires immediate, strategic representation, as courts issue sweeping protective and restraining orders that can force you out of your home and restrict access to your children. We defend clients against charges of domestic assault, breach of peace, harassment, and violation of protective orders. We guide you through domestic relations court hearings with discretion, helping de-escalate emotional family conflicts and work toward dismissed or reduced charges.

Federal Crime, White Collar Crime, and Criminal Appeals

Federal prosecutions and white collar investigations involve months of undercover preparation by federal agencies. We represent clients in state and federal courts across Connecticut and New York against allegations of RICO violations, drug trafficking, tax evasion, and corporate embezzlement. Our firm also has extensive experience in criminal appeals, successfully arguing before the Connecticut Appellate and Supreme Courts to overturn unjust convictions and correct judicial errors.
