Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Denton County, County Criminal Court #5

Allegations

After a crash, officers arrived to find our client outside the vehicle. He declined field sobriety testing, a judge authorized a blood draw, and his license was seized. With a prior on record, the case was filed as a second-offense DWI. We gathered the reports, video, and 911 records, and emphasized the absence of roadside tests and gaps in the timeline from the collision to officer contact. Leveraging those issues in negotiations, we secured a reduction to a lesser charge with straight probation.

We obtained records from multiple jurisdictions, verified the client notified authorities when relocating, and documented subsequent registrations elsewhere.

We engaged the prosecutor and probation, arranged a voluntary appearance, and laid out a detailed timeline of the client’s efforts. The state dismissed the motion to revoke and the case was dismissed.
