With over 20 years of experience, we provide aggressive courtroom advocacy combined with personalized legal guidance to achieve dismissals or reduced charges.
Felony DWI
Defense for enhanced DWI charges involving child passengers, prior convictions, or intoxication manslaughter.

Questions
What qualifies as a felony DWI in Texas?
A DWI becomes a felony with two prior convictions, child passenger endangerment, or causing serious injury/fatality while intoxicated.
Can I refuse a breath or blood test in Texas?
Yes, but refusal may result in 180-day license suspension for first offenses or two-year suspension with prior refusals.
How can you challenge DWI test results?
We examine breathalyzer calibration records, field sobriety test administration protocols, and potential medical conditions affecting test accuracy.
What happens at an ALR hearing?
Administrative License Revocation hearings challenge suspension validity through evidence review, officer cross-examination, and procedural compliance verification.
Do first-time DWI offenses require legal representation?
Yes, even first offenses carry license suspension risks and potential jail time that can be mitigated with proper legal defense.
How do prior convictions affect current charges?
Previous offenses enhance penalties, potentially converting misdemeanors to felonies and increasing license suspension periods.
