DWI

DWI Attorneys

Have you been arrested for drunk driving, DWI (driving while intoxicated) or DUI (driving under the influence)? Then you need the sound legal advice and aggressive assistance of experienced Texas DWI attorneys like those from McLallen & Phillips law firm in Corpus Christi and San Antonio. We can begin protecting your rights immediately.

Drunk driving laws in Texas have changed so dramatically of late that anyone subject to arrest could be in danger of jail time and drivers license suspension. We will do everything we can to preserve your drivers license, whether the charge is DWI or related to another serious set of traffic citations.

The Hassle of Your Life

Any Texan picked up these days on DWI charges will encounter confusing procedures and potentially devastating punishments: license suspension, interruption of driving privileges, fines, possible jail time, or perhaps prison if a motor vehicle accident resulted in injuries and particularly if this isn't their first offense. Punishments can sometimes be more severe than in certain felony cases.

Then there's the personal, human toll: loss of reputation, wrecked employment opportunities, and skyrocketing automobile insurance premiums. As opposed to other traffic citations handled by our DWI lawyers, drunk driving is the only offense that brings convictions of a criminal nature based on strictly subjective evidence. Evidence against you is predicated on the speculation of the arresting officer during the very brief time that you were in each other's company.

We Prefer Facts, Not Speculation

We will discuss specific facts of your drunk driving arrest and review evidence that prosecutors will use against you at trial. We're also careful to explain the variety of possible valid legal defenses that are available before presenting them to the court. One example of this approach relates to experts' beliefs that breath machines, as well as field sobriety tests administered by police in DWI cases, are inaccurate and unreliable.
