DWI/DUI Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC15

Allegations

The client was stopped after an alleged stop sign violation and arrested for DWI. They performed roadside tests, refused breath and blood, and officers later obtained a blood draw by warrant. We pulled the dash and body cam video and the report, then broke down the field tests step by step, flagging errors in how the HGN was administered and contradictions with the written narrative. We delivered that analysis to the prosecution and kept the pressure on. Faced with compromised key evidence, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC5

Allegations

Police found our client asleep behind the wheel on a roadway, woke them, moved the car to a lot, and arrested after the client declined field sobriety tests. A blood draw was taken by warrant and later alleged a high alcohol level. We pulled the dash and body-cam video, scrutinized the warrant affidavit, the statutory warnings, and the handling of the sample. We pressed the gaps in proof of impairment at the scene and the paperwork issues with consent. The pressure led to a reduction to a lesser charge.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC12

Allegations

After leaving a gathering, the client drove a short distance home, fell asleep at the wheel, and had a minor collision with no injuries. Officers conducted field sobriety tests at the scene and later obtained a breath sample at the jail. We scrutinized the field tests and breath-test handling and litigated a contested issue about a subpoenaed witness. We also compiled mitigation, including proof of interlock compliance and costs, insurance payments, completed classes, and strong school records. The state agreed to reduce the charge to a non-DWI offense with deferred probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 5

Allegations

After a crash at an intersection, the client called for help and was investigated for DWI. Officers said they observed intoxication, located beer in the vehicle, and conducted only limited field sobriety testing even though the airbags had deployed. A breath test was taken. We pulled the video and crash records and documented the client’s injuries and post-collision disorientation, which undercut reasonable suspicion for the tests and the arrest. Confronted with those problems, the prosecutor agreed to reduce the charge to a lower-level DWI.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC15

Allegations

Stopped for failing to signal, our client admitted to a few drinks and was arrested after HGN and walk-and-turn tests. The officer did not conduct the one-leg stand. The client consented to a breath test that read over the limit, but the client has diabetes. We pulled the breath-testing records and police reports, gathered medical documentation, and challenged the reliability of both the field tests and the breath result given that condition and the limited FSTs. After we presented these issues to the prosecution, the case was dismissed.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CCL9

Allegations

The client was stopped for speeding after leaving a social outing and admitted to having drinks. Officers conducted field sobriety tests, arrested the client, read warnings, and obtained consent for a blood draw. Our team reviewed the reports and evidence, and documented the client's longstanding balance issues and prescribed medication that can affect performance on roadside tests. We emphasized the lack of prior record and the limited driving behavior that led to the stop. Using those weaknesses, we negotiated with the prosecutor to reduce the charge.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, CC6

Allegations

Police followed the client for several minutes, then initiated a stop only as the client pulled into a residence. The report alleged erratic driving, yet the pursuing officer acknowledged no violations after getting behind the vehicle. A second officer claimed an earlier infraction, but the recordings and paperwork did not support it. Our client declined roadside tests, and a high breath result was later reported, but the breath test itself was not recorded. We dissected the videos, built a timeline, and moved to suppress, and the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC 11

Allegations

Stopped for alleged weaving after leaving a gathering, the client performed roadside tests after warning the officer about chronic knee issues. The officer indicated the client did fine, yet arrested anyway. A breath sample was taken even though no written consent was signed, and another officer offhandedly said the machine reads high before calling it a joke. We scrutinized the reports, the officer’s instructions, and the breath testing paperwork, challenged the field tests given the knee condition and mixed messages, and questioned the breath test’s reliability and consent. The case was reduced and resolved with deferred probation.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Bexar County, 399th DC

Allegations

Officers found the client asleep in a parked vehicle after a night out and claimed a collision had spun the SUV around. Photos the client took afterward showed only a faint scuff, not damage consistent with a spinout. The report noted a refusal, a search warrant, and a subsequent blood draw after roadside tests. We scrutinized the timeline from stop to arrest, challenged how the sobriety tests were administered, and examined the warrant application and procedures. By pressing the inconsistencies between the narrative and the physical evidence, we negotiated straight probation on the felony DWI.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC12

Allegations

Stopped for alleged swerving, the client declined field sobriety tests because they were dizzy and disoriented from a prescribed kidney medication that causes severe dehydration. Despite that explanation, officers obtained a blood warrant. We gathered medical documentation confirming the prescription and side effects and tied those symptoms to what the officer claimed to see. With no roadside test results and a strong medical alternative to impairment, we pressed the state, and the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC 2

Allegations

After a minor collision with a parked, unoccupied car, officers initiated a DWI investigation. The client admitted to drinking, completed field sobriety tests, and recalled stumbling, which we argued was consistent with post-crash stress and an airbag deployment. They refused a roadside breath test, and a blood sample was later taken at the jail. We reviewed the police and crash reports, emphasized the absence of injuries, and challenged the weight of the roadside exercises. The case resolved with deferred probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

Officers responded to a single-vehicle crash into a barrier and conducted field sobriety tests before making an arrest. The client admitted to drinking and later provided a breath sample around 0.15. We dug into the police reports and testing records, evaluating how the post-crash conditions and airbag deployment could have affected the observations and the tests. We paired those concerns with mitigation from a clean history in negotiations. The prosecution agreed to reduce the charge.
