What we Do

---

Texas has been battling an ongoing drinking and driving problem. In 2016, the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated there were 1,676 fatalities from alcohol-related accidents. Statistics like these have caused Texas to implement stringent DWI penalties.

First-time DWI offenders should expect a class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by up to 180 days in jail and a fine of up to $2,000. The majority of people with a first-time DWI don’t serve jail time. However, they have to handle all the added sentencing conditions.

The court may impose a multitude of terms and conditions on your sentencing. Some of these include DWI school, alcohol and substance abuse evaluation, chemical dependency treatment, license suspension, community service and probation. All of these conditions are time-consuming and can hurt your wallet.

Repeat DWI offenders have even harsher penalties. A second DWI will result in a class A misdemeanor that has a minimum 30-day jail sentence if convicted. You have a much higher chance of being incarcerated with a second DWI. Subsequent DWI convictions will result in felony charges which include prison time.

First DWI;

Second DWI;

Third or subsequent DWI;
