Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC14

Allegations

Stopped for excessive speed during a late night drive, our client was questioned about drinking, put through roadside tests, and arrested for DWI. At the station they declined a breath test and police obtained a blood warrant. We gathered the videos, reports, and lab records and built challenges targeting the basis for the stop, the administration of the field tests, and the warrant procedure. After sustained negotiations with the prosecutor, the charge was reduced to a lesser offense.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC9

Allegations

Stopped after leaving a bar, our client was arrested for DWI following roadside tests. The officer had them perform nonstandard exercises and balance tests despite a known leg injury, then labeled the poor performance as a refusal. The client initially agreed to a blood draw, asked to speak with a lawyer, and that request was also treated as a refusal before a warrant was obtained. We obtained the videos and reports, showing flawed instructions and unreliable testing conditions. We challenged the refusal designation and the basis for the blood warrant. Confronted with those issues, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC9

Allegations

Police stopped our client for speeding after leaving a gathering. The officer claimed signs of intoxication, but the client admitted only to having a few drinks and declined all field sobriety tests and a roadside breath test. A blood draw was later taken under a warrant. We obtained the reports, warrant affidavit, and lab records, and challenged the basis for the stop and the sufficiency of the warrant and sample handling. After sustained pressure and notice of our suppression arguments, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Bexar County, CC9

Allegations

During a traffic stop, officers alleged the client was unlawfully carrying a weapon. We obtained the police reports and discovery and focused on when and how the weapon was discovered, and whether the statutory elements were actually met. Our review flagged inconsistencies in the narrative and missing details needed to prove unlawful carry. We presented those deficiencies to the prosecutor and set the matter for litigation. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 11

Allegations

After a minor fender bender, our client exchanged insurance information and waited for police. Officers questioned the client about prescription medications, requested sobriety tests, and the client declined. The client consented to a vehicle search, which turned up nothing illegal and only a cup of water. The state relied on officer observations rather than a breath result. We obtained the videos and reports, underscored the minimal damage, clean search, medication issues, and lack of standardized testing. Faced with those weaknesses, the prosecutor agreed to reduce the charge.

Charge

Assault by Contact (Class C)

Location

Bexar County, Precinct 2, Place 1.

Allegations

During a hospital visit for a family medical emergency, a dispute with our client’s former partner’s companion escalated and officers were called. The client acknowledged physical contact and later received a Class C assault citation by mail. We stepped in, gathered the client’s photos, videos, and messages documenting prior unwanted contact by the complainant, and confirmed a clean criminal history. We presented that context and the client’s cooperation to the prosecutor, pressing for a constructive resolution. The case was resolved with deferred probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

Police responded after a rear-end collision caused by a sudden stop ahead. The client admitted to a few beers about an hour earlier, performed roadside tests, and was arrested for DWI. Our team dug into the crash and incident reports, the timeline of drinking, and the blood draw paperwork, and pressed the State on how much those results actually proved impairment at the time of driving. We also presented mitigation, including no prior record. The prosecutor agreed to a reduced charge with credit for time served.

Charge

Protective Order

Location

Bexar County, 438th District Court

Allegations

After a domestic dispute, the petitioner sought a civil protective order claiming ongoing danger. We gathered screenshots and call logs showing the petitioner repeatedly initiating contact, plus police reports documenting the client’s efforts to avoid contact. We also provided videos and messages from prior relationships that undermined the petitioner’s credibility. At the hearing, we emphasized these inconsistencies and the absence of any current threat. The court dismissed the protective order.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

The client was on deferred misdemeanor probation and only days from finishing when a new arrest led the state to file a motion to revoke. A warrant issued and the allegation centered on alcohol use tied to the new case. We compiled proof of steady compliance, completed classes, clean reporting, and on-time payments, and secured favorable input from supervision. We pressed those facts in negotiations, challenged the sufficiency of the violation, and resolved the warrant at the setting. The motion to revoke was dismissed.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

Police responded after a minor collision with a parked vehicle, and our client was arrested for a second DWI after leaving a bar. He reported a gap in memory and believed he had provided a breath sample. We secured the patrol video, reports, and testing records, and dissected the stop, the field evaluations, and the breath procedure. We also assembled mitigation, highlighting that no one was injured and addressing bond conditions and license matters promptly. After sustained negotiations, the prosecution agreed to reduce the charge.

Charge

Possession of a Controlled Substance (Felony)

Location

Bexar County, 175TH DC

Allegations

Police investigated an earlier incident and obtained the client's consent to search a vehicle for weapons, then reported finding a felony amount of contraband. We scrutinized how the search expanded beyond the stated consent and dissected the reports and chain of custody. Our team gathered mitigation, including the client’s lack of prior record and corroborating background materials. We pressed these issues in negotiations with the prosecutor. The case resolved with a plea to straight probation.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC15

Allegations

Our client was stopped for swerving and speeding after leaving a restaurant. They were driving a manual transmission SUV with oversized tires that pulled right under throttle and left when decelerating, something the officer acknowledged after moving the vehicle. Field sobriety tests followed, but the client's dried contact lenses made the eye test difficult, and no roadside breath test was given. A blood sample was drawn. We focused on the vehicle handling issues, the compromised eye test, and the absence of a roadside breath result. The prosecution agreed to reduce the charge.
