With deep knowledge of Texas penal codes and courtroom procedures, we protect clients' rights while minimizing long-term consequences to employment and personal records.

Specialized representation for first-time and repeat DWI offenses. We challenge evidence admissibility and procedural violations to prevent license suspensions and jail time. Our strategies address blood alcohol testing accuracy, field sobriety test validity, and alternative sentencing options like occupational licenses.

Questions
What should I do immediately after a DWI arrest?
Contact our office immediately to preserve evidence. We'll review police procedures, check for proper probable cause, and prepare defenses against license suspension and criminal charges.
Can probation violations be resolved without jail time?
Yes, we negotiate alternative sentencing including modified probation terms. Success depends on violation severity and client's probation history.
How do you handle first-time drug possession cases?
We challenge evidence collection methods and seek dismissal through pre-trial motions. For marijuana cases under 2oz, we often negotiate deferred adjudication to avoid permanent records.
What's the difference between bail bond types?
Cash bonds require full payment but get refunded. Surety bonds through our office require 10-15% payment that isn't refunded, but allows immediate release while preparing defense.
Can theft charges be removed from my record?
Yes, we've successfully obtained expungements and non-disclosure orders. For first-time offenders, we often negotiate deferred adjudication that avoids permanent criminal records.
