Northern Texas Lawyer for First-Time DWI Defendants

Being arrested for DWI is often a person's first time having legal issues. Fortunately, if this is your first DWI, you may have opportunities that are not available to repeat offenders. While notoriously harsh, Texas courts are also somewhat understanding of the fact that treatable substance abuse disorders often play a large role in DWI cases.

Our lawyers will discuss your options with you when we learn more about your case. We understand how stressful this situation is, and we will strive to achieve the best possible results.

Representation for Repeat DWI Defendants

If you already have a DWI conviction on your record, being charged with another DWI can put you in serious legal jeopardy. At a minimum, you are facing 30 days in jail. At worst, you could be looking at felony charges carrying years in prison for a third or subsequent DWI.

It is important that you act quickly when you are facing these serious charges. There is a lot at stake in these cases. We are experienced in defending those facing repeat DWI charges, and we will do all we can to preserve your freedom.

Parker County Attorney for Aggravated DWI Cases

Even a first DWI can be charged as a felony rather than a misdemeanor if certain circumstances are present. For example, if you caused a fatal accident, you are likely facing a type of manslaughter charge. DWIs may also be treated as a more serious offense if you had a child passenger or caused injury to another person, and you could face charges of intoxication assault.

If you are facing more than a simple DWI, you could be facing years of prison time. We understand what is at stake, and we take these cases very seriously. Our lawyers will do everything in our power to secure the best possible results for you.

How Our Texas Lawyers Defend DWI Cases

Proving a DWI is not as simple as it may seem. There are a number of ways we can fight back against these charges, including:

• Field sobriety test issues - Not all field sobriety tests are fair. Yours may have been affected by an environmental issue like high winds or a legal issue like a police officer not following the proper procedures.
• Chemical testing issues - It is quite common for an error to be made when administering a breath or blood test.
• Illegal stop - The police must have had reasonable suspicion that you were committing a crime to pull you over.
• Involuntary intoxication - You may be able to defend against a DWI charge by showing that you did not purposely consume an intoxicating substance.

In other cases, we are able to present strong mitigating factors that may keep you free, even if taking a plea deal is the best solution. We will work with you to determine the best possible strategy.
