Texas DWI cases are prosecuted under the Penal Code and often include ALR license-suspension hearings at the Texas Department of Public Safety. Blood-draw warrants, Intoxilyzer results, and no-refusal weekends vary by county. Local defense counsel matters because prosecutors and judges differ across Harris, Dallas, Tarrant, Bexar, and Travis Counties.

Criminal Law board certification from TBLS covers DWI defense among other criminal practice; it is not a standalone DWI specialty.

Common Questions

Should I take a breath test if stopped for DWI in Texas?

Refusing a test can trigger an automatic license suspension and may still lead to a warrant for blood. Talk with a lawyer promptly — ALR contest deadlines are only 15 days.

Is a first DWI a felony in Texas?

A first DWI with no enhancements is typically a Class B misdemeanor. Injuries, a child in the car, high BAC, or prior convictions can raise the charge.
