Texas DWI - Drunk Driving Defense

Don’t Let A Texas Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)
Ruin Your Life!  Have a TOP DWI Defense!

I will fight for your license, your freedom and your dignity.

    When you have been investigated or arrested for any criminal offense such as Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), or any Felony Charge, you have an absolute right to be concerned. Facing criminal charges may be one of the most frightening things you have encountered.

    Many Texas drivers who are arrested for driving while intoxicated do not realize that a DWI arrest creates two cases. More specifically, a DWI arrest results in a criminal charge, but it also initiates a civil proceeding against the arrested motorist’s driving privileges called an administrative license revocation, or ALR.

 Some of the possible consequences that can result from a Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) conviction include the restriction or loss of a driver’s license, an increase in insurance costs, fines, court costs, a Driver’s License Surcharge of between $3,000.00 and $6,000.00, and even the possibility of jail. As you can see, Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) can be a very serious charge.


    The law says that the County Attorney needs only to prove that after drinking you were not able to drive your car in a “normal” capacity. That sounds pretty cut and dried, but it is not quite as simple as that.

If you are facing a drunk driving charge you want answers -- FAST!

Our attorneys and support staff stand ready to assist you in weathering the stressful days ahead as we investigate and challenge your pending charges. We understand the serious nature of your situation and want to help you deal with the stressful and complex issues of a drunk driving arrest.

When you retain me I’ll insist that the County Attorney provide us with the names and address of anyone he plans to call as a witness as well as copies of every written or recorded statements of their testimony. This will allow us to prepare our questions of them.

    I'll insist that the Houston County Attorney provide us with any information or material he has which would show that you are not guilty of the charges against you, or which may help you get a lighter sentence.

    I'll insist on receiving copies of any videos that show your sobriety tests, whether in the field or at the station.

    I'll insist on receiving copies of records showing that the equipment used for tests was functioning properly and that the person giving the tests was properly certified.

    As you can see, what looks simple gets pretty complex. As your criminal defense attorney I will insist that all this information be provided and that you and I walk through all this information as we discuss and proceed on your case.

   The government with all of its resources can frequently make your life miserable; regardless of whether you have actually committed the crime. Real life criminal law is NOT like television. Cases are not resolved in one hour, and the solutions are normally not simple. Hiring a criminal defense trial lawyer can be the most important decision you make.

    When you find yourself, a family member, or friend in this situation, you need an experienced and well-skilled attorney who practices only in the area of criminal defense law. For better or worse, criminal law has its own unique practice and methodology. Frequently you will find attorneys who practice criminal law, but also handle personal injury, divorce, and other matters. They may be good attorneys, but I believe that criminal law is too specialized to risk my clients to any distractions facing an attorney who handles multiple types of law and who is not in the trenches everyday.

    Please call and schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience, because as a top Houston DWI criminal defense attorney with offices in Houston, Texas I can help you through the unfamiliar territory of the criminal justice system. Because each case is different and special, I offer a free initial consultation where you and I can sit down and discuss the charges against you and what options are available to you.
