Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 14

Allegations

Our client was stopped after allegedly cutting off another vehicle. Without a license on hand, they declined balance tests due to longstanding leg and back issues, and completed only the eye test. At the station they submitted a breath sample that tested high. We obtained the videos and breath-test paperwork, examined the officer's HGN instructions, the observation period, and machine records, and paired that with proactive classes and character letters. That pressure led to deferred adjudication, keeping a conviction off the record.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 12

Allegations

Following a minor crash, officers approached the client in a parked vehicle and made a DWI arrest. The client had limited memory of the event, did not complete standardized field tests, and a breath result was reported near an elevated threshold. We obtained the reports and video, reviewed everything with the client, and gathered strong character letters from supervisors and coworkers. The client also completed recommended alcohol education up front. We leveraged these steps in negotiations, addressed proposed monitoring conditions, and secured a plea to straight probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC6

Allegations

After a late-night traffic stop for an alleged traffic violation and contact with a curb, the client was arrested for DWI. They declined field sobriety tests, and a blood draw was performed under a warrant. We secured the videos and warrant paperwork, compared them to the report, and flagged weaknesses in the basis for the stop and arrest. At the same time, we lined up mitigation, including a DWI class, a victim impact panel, character letters, and an application to veterans treatment court. The case resolved with deferred adjudication.

Charge

Speeding (Class C Misdemeanor)

Location

Bexar County, Precinct 1 Place 1

Allegations

After a traffic stop, the client received a Class C speeding citation. We entered an appearance, demanded the state’s evidence, and set the case for a contested setting. When discovery was not produced as required, we pressed the issue and made clear we were prepared to litigate. In discussions with the assigned prosecutor, we emphasized the evidentiary gaps and their burden to prove the alleged speed. The state elected to dismiss the case.

Charge

Unsafe Speed (Class C Misdemeanor)

Location

Bexar County, Precinct 1 Place 1

Allegations

During a highway stop, the client was cited for unsafe speed. Our team immediately requested the patrol video, the officer's notes, and all supporting speed evidence. When key discovery was still missing, we set the case for a contested setting and made clear we would challenge the proof. With incomplete evidence and pressure mounting, the prosecution dismissed the charge. The result kept a moving violation off the client's record.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Bexar County, 186th District Court

Allegations

Police made contact with the client at home after a 911 report of erratic driving. No traffic stop occurred, the client declined field sobriety tests, and a blood draw was later obtained by warrant. We pulled the dispatch audio, dash and body camera, and the lab paperwork, and pressed the state on proving operation and intoxication at the relevant time rather than in a driveway. We also documented that body damage on the truck predated the incident, undercutting any crash theory. Using those weaknesses, we negotiated the felony down to a misdemeanor.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CCL14

Allegations

After striking a highway median when a tire likely blew, the client called for assistance. At the scene, officers had her perform field sobriety tests while wearing heels, then two breath devices produced error messages and they obtained a blood sample. We secured the body and dash camera footage and reports, highlighted the testing circumstances and equipment issues, and underscored that she sought help rather than tried to evade contact. The blood result was 0.139, below the enhancement threshold. Leveraging these points and mitigation, we negotiated a reduced charge.

Charge

DUI by Minor (Class C)

Location

Bexar County, Precinct 1 Place 1

Allegations

During a traffic stop for speeding, our under 21 client was cited for DUI after the officer said the car smelled of alcohol. The client was not arrested and provided a roadside breath sample of about 0.03. We obtained the videos and reports, highlighted the sublegal reading, and questioned whether a portable device alone could establish being under the influence. We also guided the client to complete an alcohol awareness course and compiled proof of completion. With those evidentiary issues and mitigation on the table, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Indecent Exposure

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 5

Allegations

Our client was accused of indecent exposure after an encounter in a park area. He said he stepped into the brush to relieve himself, was approached by a plainclothes officer, and later detained by responding officers. We obtained the police reports and both body camera and undercover video, then walked the client through the strengths and risks. We assembled mitigation, including medical records explaining urinary urgency, and emphasized his clean history. After firm negotiations, the prosecution agreed to deferred adjudication, avoiding a conviction.

Charge

DUI by a Minor (Class C)

Location

Bexar County

Allegations

A traffic stop for speeding resulted in a Class C DUI citation. The officer noted alcohol consumption but conducted only an eye test, with no breath or blood sample taken. We pressed for full discovery, including reports and any video, and challenged the basis for the citation. When the state could not produce what we requested, we leveraged those deficiencies in negotiations. The prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

The case began after a minor traffic collision. Bystanders pointed officers to a nearby store where our client had stepped inside, and a DWI arrest followed after a forceful takedown. We obtained body-cam and store video, then mapped the timeline from the crash to first contact, pressing the gaps in the intoxication story. We also protected his license by demanding the ALR hearing and, when DPS later imposed a suspension, secured an occupational license so he could keep working. With those issues in play, we negotiated deferred adjudication.

Charge

Speeding

Location

Bexar County, Precinct 2 Place 1

Allegations

During a traffic stop, our client was cited for speeding. We immediately requested full discovery on the stop and the basis for the citation, including reports and any video. When the State failed to produce the materials after repeated follow-ups, we kept the matter on the docket to force an answer and maintained pressure on the prosecution. Faced with proceeding without required evidence, the prosecutor submitted a dismissal. The speeding citation was thrown out, leaving nothing pending.
