Defending DWIs
How We Will Defend Your DWI Charges
Under Texas law, there are two charges that can result from driving under the influence of alcohol: DWI (driving while intoxicated) or DUI (driving under the influence). Whether you are an adult charged with DWI or you are a minor-aged youth who has been charged with DWI, our law firm provides aggressive, knowledgeable defense you can rely on.
We are dedicated to providing any individual facing DWI charges in and around Houston with the best possible defense. We will work with you to protect your rights all through the duration of your case. Our goal is to make your DWI charge disappear, to prevent you from losing your freedom and your license to drive, and to keep your record clean.
We have found that the most important step in fighting the DWI portion of your case is challenging your driver’s license suspension. After we request the hearing on your driver’s license, we have the opportunity to question the officer(s) that arrested you before a jury trial in your case. This is a very helpful opportunity for us to obtain information that often times leads to a favorable result in your case or leads to a dismissal of your DWI.
During the pre-trial period, we conduct a thorough investigation of all available evidence, including the police report, breath test report, videos, and blood test report. Our experienced Houston DWI attorney can determine whether the initial contact with the police was legally valid. He will also determine whether all police contact conformed to the protections of the Constitution, including any searches and police questioning. We know how and where to make the proper motions which compel the DA to prove that all the steps used in your arrest were done properly. If they were not, then the case is weakened.
Every case is different and a Houston DWI attorney can distinguish your case from other cases on point and will be able to present a competent defense in accordance to constitutional protections and relevant Texas law and procedure. In addition to assessing whether the protections of the Constitution were complied with by the relevant police department, our experienced Houston DWI attorney will look to the sufficiency of the evidence and to which defenses may apply to your particular set of facts.
We are always prepared to take your case to trial if necessary to avoid a DWI conviction. We will also help you get your driving record and criminal record expunged or sealed if you meet the required conditions.
