DWI/DUI Case Results in Montgomery, TX

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL1

Allegations

Stopped for an alleged plate issue that became a brake light warning, the client was removed from the vehicle and questioned about alcohol but consistently denied drinking. Field sobriety tests were repeated several times, at points without shoes, while a trainee observed. Bodycam captured the training officer contradicting his later report about glossy eyes. A breath test taken later registered 0.066, under the legal limit, and no bad driving was noted. We obtained the video and reports, exposed the shifting reasons and weak impairment evidence, and the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

After a late night stop for failing to maintain a lane, our client was arrested for DWI. Dash and body cams showed the sobriety tests were done on a noisy roadside with shaky instructions, yet the client looked coherent and steady. At the station, a breath test came back just over the limit. We secured the videos, demanded breath machine maintenance and operator records, and highlighted problems with the observation period and overall investigation. The client completed alcohol education and community service. Facing those flaws and mitigation, the State dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Montgomery County, 9th Judicial District Court

Allegations

Officers found the client’s car stuck on train tracks during a welfare check and quickly turned it into a DWI investigation. The client declined to answer about drinking, refused field tests and a roadside breath test, and a blood sample was later taken under a warrant. We obtained the reports and video, stressing that the encounter began as a welfare check, documenting a shoulder injury affecting balance, and scrutinizing the warrant timing and blood chain of custody. The client complied with bond terms and sought help. Leveraging those issues and mitigation, we negotiated straight probation, avoiding prison.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Montgomery County, 9th DC

Allegations

The client was stopped after exiting a freeway for an alleged lane violation. At the scene they tried part of the walk-and-turn, were emotional, and admitted to drinking. A warrant blood draw hours later reported a very high BAC. We dissected dash and bodycam showing only momentary tire contact with the line and challenged the basis for the stop. We demanded full lab records and chain of custody to scrutinize the blood, and presented mitigation of steady work, schooling, and strict bond compliance. After sustained negotiations, the case resolved with probation instead of prison.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #4

Allegations

After a late‑night neighborhood collision, officers arrested our client for DWI. Despite the crash and a history of spine surgeries, balance issues, and head pain later diagnosed as a concussion, the officer ran field sobriety tests and obtained only a single breath sample at the station, with the second attempt unreadable and no blood draw taken. We secured bodycam, a dashcam clip from the other vehicle, and comprehensive medical records. We challenged the reliability of the testing and the weight of the post‑crash observations. Leveraging those issues, we negotiated a reduced charge with a sentence of time served.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

The client, with no prior record, was arrested for a first-offense DWI after a roadside encounter. Concerned about professional licensing consequences, we moved quickly to obtain the state's evidence and dissect the reports, scrutinizing the basis for the stop, the detention, and the claimed signs of intoxication. We consulted with the client, mapped out suppression arguments, and signaled readiness to litigate. After sustained negotiations informed by our analysis, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL5

Allegations

Police contacted our client at a gas station after 911 callers reported a wrong way vehicle. No officer saw any driving and the callers never identified who was behind the wheel. Because of a recent leg injury, only the eye test was attempted and the initial report noted few classic intoxication signs. The breath test came more than an hour after contact, raising timing issues on intoxication at the time of operation. We obtained the 911 audio and video, pressed the operation and proof issues, and negotiated brief classes and service. The state dismissed the DWI.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

Stopped late at night for alleged speeding, our client was arrested for DWI even though she reported driving a small car about 50 mph. The officer said he smelled alcohol; she acknowledged two glasses of wine hours earlier and says she completed the field sobriety tests without issues. At the station multiple breath attempts failed to register, then a blood draw was taken, and an open container allegation appeared with no documentation. We pulled the dash and body cameras, challenged the basis for the stop, the FST instructions, and the lack of proof on the container and consent. Confronted with those weaknesses, the state agreed to reduce the charges.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL4

Allegations

After a traffic stop for speeding, the client was arrested for DWI following an admission to a few drinks and difficulty with a walk-and-turn. At the station, a breath test taken soon after the stop registered just over the legal limit. We focused on the short window between the last drink and the test, the fact that speeding alone is not an intoxication clue, and that only one field test was used. We leveraged these weaknesses in negotiations with prosecutors. The charge was reduced and the court ordered time served.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL1

Allegations

After a traffic stop for alleged speeding, the client exited at the next off-ramp and was arrested for DWI. They declined field sobriety tests and indicated willingness to provide blood, but a dispute at the hospital led officers to secure a warrant instead. We pushed for dash and body camera footage and scrutinized the blood draw paperwork and chain of custody. With no roadside testing and questions about the stop and consent, we applied pressure in negotiations. The prosecution reduced the charge, and the case resolved with a sentence of time served.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Montgomery County, CCL5

Allegations

After a report of intoxicated patrons leaving a bar, officers located our client and made a traffic stop. The client cooperated, completed field sobriety tests, and later provided a breath sample that registered over .15, resulting in an enhanced DWI charge. We obtained the patrol video, SFST paperwork, and breath-test records, pressed the state on its proof, and presented strong mitigation, including the client’s clean history and cooperation. The prosecution agreed to reduce the case to a standard DWI and resolve it for time served, avoiding probation and additional jail.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

After leaving a work gathering where alcohol was served, the client began to feel unwell and pulled to the shoulder to wait for a ride. Officers arrived as family members did, questioned him, and he acknowledged having driven earlier. He completed roadside sobriety tests and later provided a breath sample at the jail. We built leverage around his decision to stop driving, and we scrutinized the video, field tests, and breath paperwork for adherence to required procedures. With no prior record, we negotiated deferred adjudication, keeping a conviction off his record.
