Charge
DWI with Child Passenger
Location
Montgomery County, 9th Judicial District Court
Allegations
Stopped near home after an officer claimed swerving and a wide turn, the client had young children in the vehicle. They declined breath testing, a warrant was obtained, and a blood sample was drawn later at a hospital. We secured dash and body camera footage, scrutinized the field sobriety instructions, and audited the blood draw paperwork for legal and scientific issues. Alongside, we compiled mitigation with treatment and meeting records. Leveraging those points, we negotiated a probationary resolution that kept the client out of jail.

Probation
Charge
DWI (BAC Over .15)
Location
Montgomery County, CCL4
Allegations
Police contacted the client at home after a 911 tip, with no traffic stop or firsthand view of driving. Field tests were done in a parking area, a portable breath test read high, no blood was drawn, and contact came well after the drive. We attacked the lack of any eyewitness behind the wheel, the delay before contact, and whether the breath request was truly voluntary, and demanded calibration records. We also set the license hearing to question the officer. Faced with these issues, the state dropped the .15 enhancement, reduced the charge, and the client resolved it for time served without probation.

Charge
DWI - First Offense
Location
Montgomery County, CCL5
Allegations
After a single vehicle crash, the client was arrested for DWI following field tests and a refusal of breath testing. Officers obtained a blood warrant, but the first draw at the jail failed and a second was taken hours later at a hospital. The on scene body camera was missing, and the report conflicted with what was said about the client’s performance on the tests. We challenged the reliability and timing of the blood evidence and highlighted gaps in the state’s proof. Facing those problems, the prosecution agreed to reduce the charge and accept a time served sentence.

Charge
DWI - Third Offense
Location
Montgomery County, 435th DC
Allegations
After a rear-end collision, the client was arrested for a third DWI. They admitted to drinking a few beers and performed roadside sobriety tests, then were taken to a hospital due to airbag deployment. No blood was drawn and no station breath test was administered. We secured discovery, scrutinized the roadside testing in light of the crash, and challenged how prior cases were being used for enhancement. Leveraging those issues, we negotiated straight probation and kept the client out of prison.

Probation
Charge
DWI - First Offense
Location
Montgomery County, County Court at Law #5
Allegations
The client was stopped for a front-plate issue while driving home. Officers spotted open containers, conducted field sobriety tests, and the client declined a breath test but consented to blood. We pulled the dash and body cam, compared them against the reports, and pressed on the legality of the stop, the instructions and conditions of the tests, and the handling of the blood sample. We also documented the client's proactive classes. Using that leverage, we negotiated a reduction to a lesser offense with a sentence of time served.

DWI - First Offense

Montgomery County, CCL5
Allegations
Police were called after a resident reported an ATV near a retention area late at night. The client was stuck in mud when officers arrived, and after contact he declined field sobriety tests. He was transported and a blood sample was taken under a warrant. We gathered the bodycam, reports, and warrant materials, and highlighted that this was an off‑road ATV situation with no crash or injuries. After sustained negotiations with the prosecutor, we secured straight probation, keeping the client out of jail.

Charge
DWI - Second Offense
Location
Montgomery County, CCL1
Allegations
After a late-night traffic stop for an alleged failure to signal, which later shifted to an illegal lane change, our client was arrested. They declined field sobriety tests and a breath test, and a warrant blood draw later reported a result over the legal limit. We secured and reviewed dash and body cam video showing a respectful demeanor, no obvious impairment, and an officer who threatened additional charges and pressured a passenger. We attacked probable cause for the arrest, the shifting basis for the stop, and the delay before the blood draw. Faced with these issues, the state agreed to reduce the charge and resolve it with time served, avoiding probation and additional jail.

DWI - First Offense
Location
Montgomery County, CCL4
Allegations
After a low-speed collision, police responded and began a DWI investigation. Officers documented mixed observations, with only faint or no odor of alcohol noted. The client completed roadside tests in poor conditions and later had blood drawn after a warrant was issued. We reviewed bodycam, 911 audio, and lab records, emphasizing problems with the field tests, the inadmissible portable breath reading, and the timing of consumption supporting a rising BAC. We leveraged these weaknesses to secure a reduction with time served.

Allegations
Officers responded to a minor crash after another driver braked abruptly, and the client made light contact while passing. At the scene the client admitted to one drink. They refused a voluntary blood draw, and hours later a warrant was obtained, with the sample testing at 0.11. We dissected the bodycam, how the roadside tests were given, and the late timing of the draw compared to the time of driving. We also flagged paperwork discrepancies and emphasized the client’s clean record. With that leverage we negotiated deferred probation, keeping a conviction off the record.

DWI - First Offense
Location
Montgomery County, County Court at Law #1
Allegations
After a late-night single-vehicle crash, officers noted signs of intoxication. The client declined field sobriety tests and breath testing, was arrested, and a warrant blood draw later reported a very high BAC. We obtained the dash and bodycam, the warrant affidavit, and witness statements, including the other driver the client said was involved, and highlighted inconsistencies in the narrative and issues with how the warrant was obtained. We pressed these problems in negotiations, making clear we were ready to litigate. The case was reduced and the client received credit for time served.

Montgomery County, County Court at Law #1
Allegations
Officers found our client asleep in a vehicle parked off the roadway and began a welfare check. The contact shifted to a DWI investigation, field sobriety tests were given, and the client was arrested. A blood draw followed. We obtained the videos, reports, and lab documentation, scrutinizing how the tests were administered and whether escalation of the encounter was justified. Using those issues in negotiations, we secured deferred probation on this first offense, keeping a conviction off the record.

Deferred Probation
Charge
DWI (BAC Over .15)
Location
Montgomery County, CCL5
Allegations
The client was stopped after driving straight from a turn-only lane. The officer reported an alcohol odor and conducted field tests even after being told about significant medical and neurological limitations. A breath sample at the jail nearly two hours later read well over the limit. We reviewed the video, requested Intoxilyzer maintenance and operator records, and presented medical documentation to undercut the tests and timing. Using those issues, we secured a reduction with a sentence of time served, avoiding further jail.
