What a Texas DWI charge means
In Texas, you can face a DWI for driving with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher, or for driving while alcohol has impaired your normal mental or physical abilities. Even a first offense can bring jail exposure, fines, and a lengthy license suspension—and the collateral damage often reaches your work and family life.
Repeat offenses carry steeper penalties. The sooner you speak with counsel, the more options you typically have to challenge the stop, the testing, and the state’s evidence.
How we approach your DWI case
Our lawyers handle DWI matters in Bexar County courts regularly. We review the traffic stop, field sobriety testing, breath or blood results, and video when it exists. You work directly with your attorney—not a call center—and we keep you informed while we push for dismissal, reduction, or trial readiness when needed.
Practical steps if you were just arrested
- Contact a local defense lawyer as soon as you can so evidence and deadlines are not missed.
- Be careful what you post on social media about the night of the stop.
- Save receipts, witness names, and anything that helps reconstruct the evening.
- Do not discuss the facts of your case with anyone except your attorney.
