Pulled Over? We Can Help.
DWI, or driving while intoxicated, is a criminal offense in all 50 states. While DWI laws vary from state to state, all offenses involve driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs. In Texas, as in most states, it is illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or higher.
Penalties for DWI can include jail time, fines, and driver's license suspension. In Texas, the penalties for DWI are severe, and first-time offenders can face up to 180 days in jail, a $2,000 fine, and the loss of their driving privileges for up to one year. Potential penalties only increase from there, and those facing a second or subsequent DWI conviction, or when property was damaged or people were injured, can face years in jail and thousands more in fines.
It is important to understand the consequences of DWI before making any decisions about your case. If you are facing DWI charges, our attorney can help you understand your rights and options, and may be able to get your charges reduced or dismissed altogether.

Notable Results
-
Possession Of Marijuana And A Controlled SubstanceThe client was driving home from a friend’s house and was stopped for failure to signal. At the motion to suppress hearing, the court heard testimony and granted the motion, which excluded all evidence acquired by the officer inadmissible at trial. Without any evidence, the state was forced to dismiss all charges, and the client is now eligible to have the arrest and charges expunged from his record.

DWI BAC > 0.15%
Client was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated after being pulled over by police for speed. A blood test taken after this stop alleged my client’s blood alcohol level (BAC) at the time of the test was .216, resulting in this case being charged as a Class A Misdemeanor. After extensive discovery review and persistent negotiations, the prosecutor agreed to lower the charges to a first DWI.

At the time of this arrest, he was borrowing a friend’s car to run a few errands. Approximately a year prior to this arrest, a default protective order had been granted against this client. A provision in that protective order made it a crime to possess a firearm. During an inventory search of the vehicle, a semi-automatic rifle was uncovered in the trunk of the vehicle. The client made

Second DWI – ALR Hearing
Client pulled over on a major highway for speeding and a missing tail light and was subsequently arrested for a second DWI after the officer saw two open containers of beer in the cup holders. At the administrative license revocation (ALR) hearing, we successfully argued that DPS could not establish my client’s alcohol concentration at the time he was operating his vehicle. The judge found our argument persuasive and denied the request by DPS to suspend our client’s driver’s license.

DWI First
Client was driving home from a birthday party when pulled over for failure to signal a lane change. After we pointed out some significant weaknesses in the case based on evidence in the video and the officer’s report, the prosecution agreed to offer a reduction to obstruction of a passageway and allowed our client the opportunity to have the case dismissed after successfully completing deferred adjudication probation.
