Texas Drunk Driving Defense Attorneys
A conviction for drunk driving can have a number of consequences, including suspension of your driver's license, fines, jail time and a criminal record. Drunk driving accusations require serious attention from the moment you are pulled over.
If you have been charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI) or the closely related underage offense of driving under the influence (DUI), our attorneys will explore all opportunities for avoiding conviction or reducing the consequences. Contact us for a free initial phone consultation with an experienced DWI defense lawyer.
Attacking Faulty Evidence Against You
Many DWI cases proceed without legally acceptable evidence because the prosecutors hope the defendants will plead guilty without scrutinizing their case. Our attorneys are experienced at examining the evidence to determine whether the state can prove that you violated DWI laws.
We are highly knowledgeable about the different breathalyzer tests that are used, what procedures must be followed in order to get reliable results and what factors might cause the tests to malfunction.
We are also trained in and very familiar with the Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. We are skilled at identifying where the tests administered by the police deviated from the standard methods, decreasing their reliability.
Defending You Against License Suspension
If you are convicted of the criminal offense of DWI or DUI, your driver's license may be suspended for 90 days or more. However, even before you are criminally charged, there may be an administrative hearing to temporarily suspend your license based on your breath test results.
Our attorneys can represent you both on the criminal charges and at the administrative hearing. Contact us right away to protect your rights at every stage.
