Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC 12

Allegations

After a minor collision, our client was arrested for a first DWI with a reported blood alcohol level over .15. We gathered insurance documentation and confirmation from the state that no restitution was owed, removing a key obstacle to leniency. We also compiled months of spotless pretrial compliance and proof of proactive treatment and lifestyle changes. Keeping negotiations focused with the prosecutor and their supervisor, we pressed for relief. The state agreed to remove the enhancement and reduce the charge.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, CC13

Allegations

Police responded to a domestic dispute at a residence. Our client had called for help, yet was arrested after officers noted small scratches on the other party and accepted his account. We obtained the 911 call, body cam, and a witness cell phone recording from inside the home, which showed a very different sequence of events and supported self defense. CPS notes and subsequent statements from the complainant conflicted with the initial report. The complainant later signed an affidavit of non prosecution, which we presented. Faced with credibility problems and a reluctant witness, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Driving While License Invalid

Location

Bexar County, CC 9

Allegations

The client was stopped during a traffic patrol and cited for driving while license invalid. We obtained the officer’s report and the driving record, then mapped a timeline of the alleged suspension. The documentation did not match the date of the stop, and the state’s proof of notice and status was incomplete. We made clear we would challenge those elements and the admissibility of the evidence. Facing significant proof issues, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC9

Allegations

Stopped after an officer said they rolled a red light before a left turn, the client was noted to have red, watery eyes and was asked to perform field sobriety tests, which were limited due to chronic back and leg issues. The client elected a blood test, but the draw was delayed while paperwork was corrected. We gathered medical records documenting PTSD, TBI, and eye conditions with light sensitivity that explained the observations, and challenged the stop and the reliability of the tests. After we presented these issues, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 9

Allegations

After a late-night traffic stop for speeding, the client was arrested for DWI. They declined breath testing, officers obtained a blood warrant, and the state relied on field sobriety tests. We obtained the dash and body camera footage and the lab packet, identified problems with how the tests were administered, and confirmed the blood result was below 0.08. We presented these evidentiary issues to the prosecution and prepared to litigate. With key proof compromised, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Accident Involving Injury

Location

Bexar County, 187TH District Court

Allegations

After a rear-end collision, the client parked nearby, briefly walked away, then returned as first responders arrived. The other driver later reported back pain and EMS responded. Prosecutors pursued a felony accident involving injury, alleging he failed to remain. We obtained the crash report and EMS records and emphasized that he returned, that his account referenced a memory lapse, and that the evidence did not clearly establish intent. After sustained negotiations, the state reduced the charge and he received deferred probation, avoiding a felony conviction.

Charge

Harassment (Class B Misdemeanor)

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

The client was investigated for harassment after sending texts and posting on social media accusing a family member of harming a child. We stepped in early, handled communications with the investigator, and compiled the texts, call history, and surrounding context showing there were no threats and that the statements related to reporting suspected abuse. We challenged the evidentiary basis and confirmed the complainants did not wish to proceed. The investigator marked the case unfounded, and it was dismissed.

Charge

Possession of THC (State Jail Felony)

Location

Bexar County, Pre-indictment District Court

Allegations

Police approached the client at a closed park and, after seeing smoke and claiming an odor of marijuana, searched a backpack and reported finding marijuana along with a THC concentrate. The case remained in a pre-indictment posture while the state sought lab testing. We obtained the discovery, scrutinized the stop and search, and pressed the prosecution on the lab's ability to reliably identify and weigh the concentrate. We made clear we were prepared to litigate suppression and to attack any gaps in the chain of proof. Confronted with those evidentiary issues, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CCL8

Allegations

After a traffic stop for alleged speeding, our client was arrested for DWI. They declined a breath test, and officers obtained a warrant for a blood draw; an open container was also documented. We secured the videos and observed solid performance on the field tests, with communication issues due to a language barrier noted throughout. When the blood results came back at 0.05, below the legal limit, we challenged intoxication and the reliability of the investigation. Facing weak evidence, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Disorderly Conduct (Class C)

Location

Bexar County, Justice of the Peace 3

Allegations

The client was ticketed for Class C disorderly conduct after a school incident. Staff insisted the student move while they were on the phone with a parent, a fire alarm sounded, campus police arrived, and the situation escalated. Administrators alleged profane remarks and that a chair was thrown at a wall, but no one was harmed. We obtained school and police records, pressed for any camera and body camera footage, and presented the IEP and safety-plan context along with the weeks long delay in filing. Confronted with these issues and a prepared defense, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Sexual Assault

Location

Bexar County, DC175

Allegations

During a contentious child support dispute, our client was arrested after a scheduled child exchange and accused of sexual assault tied to a past relationship. We obtained CPS and law enforcement records, lined up the timeline with family-court filings, and identified credibility issues and a strong motive behind the complaint. We compiled inconsistencies between initial reports and later statements and put that in front of the prosecutor. After sustained negotiations, the state agreed to reduce the charge and we secured deferred probation.

Charge

Possession of Marijuana (Felony)

Location

Bexar County, 175TH DC

Allegations

The client was detained out of state on a Texas warrant for felony marijuana possession. We got involved immediately, coordinated with authorities in both jurisdictions, and pushed for a bond arrangement to minimize time in custody during transfer. We obtained discovery and examined how the marijuana was found and documented. We scrutinized the basis for the search and the handling of the evidence, and made clear we were prepared to litigate. After negotiations, the case resolved with straight probation.
