Criminal Defense Case Results in San Antonio, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Comal County, County Court at Law 2

Allegations

Officers responded to a rear-end crash and questioned our client, who admitted drinking earlier while traveling. Only partial roadside tests were attempted after an airbag deployment and chest pain, and a hospital blood draw later reported a very high BAC. We reviewed the videos and reports, flagged how injuries and stress impacted testing, and scrutinized the warning and consent process. We also built mitigation, documenting months of AA, consistent sobriety monitoring, completion of required classes, and character support. The state agreed to probation, avoiding jail.

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 12

Allegations

A traffic stop for a lane change without signaling led officers to question our client. The client immediately told the officer there was an unloaded pistol secured in the center console. After an intoxication investigation, police added an unlawful carrying allegation. Our team obtained the videos and reports, scrutinized the basis for the stop, the timing and manner of the firearm's discovery, and whether the facts satisfied each element of UCW. We emphasized the voluntary disclosure and evidentiary gaps. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CCL12

Allegations

Stopped for an alleged lane change without signaling, the client performed field sobriety tests in a parking lot and later provided two breath samples around 0.11. We secured the video and breath-test records, highlighting that the eye test was repeated several times and the report described the movement as almost unsafe. We pressed the state on reasonable suspicion, NHTSA compliance, and breath-machine procedures. Using the client’s cooperation and clean history, we leveraged these issues to secure a reduction to a lesser, non DWI offense.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Comal County, County Court at Law 2

Allegations

After a traffic stop for exiting a one-way street the wrong direction, the client was investigated for DWI. Field sobriety tests on video looked mostly steady, but a blood test later came back just under 0.15. We reviewed the footage, emphasized the nonessential questioning and the client’s test performance, and pressed those points in negotiations. Using the borderline BAC and evidentiary concerns, we secured deferred adjudication probation. Terms included required classes and an ignition interlock, avoiding a conviction on the record.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Atascosa County, CCL

Allegations

Following a traffic stop, the client performed field sobriety tests, blew on a roadside device, and later provided a breath sample at the jail. Our team quickly obtained the dashcam video, police reports, and breath test records. We reviewed the HGN, walk-and-turn, and one-leg stand administration, and scrutinized the breath testing paperwork for procedural issues. Leveraging our workup and mitigation about the client's future goals, we pressed for a resolution that avoided a conviction. The state agreed to pre-trial diversion.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 1

Allegations

After a crash with a commercial truck following a holiday gathering, the client was investigated for DWI. Officers had the driver move the vehicle to a nearby lot, conducted limited field tests, then obtained a breath sample over .15. We pulled every video and maintenance record, and highlighted the contradiction between allowing driving and claiming extreme impairment. With no prior history and proactive class completion, we pressed the state. The prosecutor agreed to drop the .15 enhancement and reduce the case to a lower DWI with deferred probation.

Charge

Possession of THC (State Jail Felony)

Location

Comal County, 433rd District Court

Allegations

Following a detention for public intoxication near a commercial area, officers discovered a vape pen the client had bought at a local shop and filed a felony THC possession case. We obtained the discovery and video, then focused on a key weakness: the lab reported delta 9 THC but did not quantify it, creating a gap in proof between illegal cannabis oil and legal hemp. We prepared to challenge the expert evidence and signaled we were ready to litigate. Leveraging those issues, we negotiated deferred probation, avoiding jail and keeping a conviction off the record upon successful completion.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence (Strangulation)

Location

Bexar County, Criminal, District Court

Allegations

Following a domestic argument at a residence, officers entered and arrested our client after the complainant alleged strangulation and showed markings. The client consistently denied any contact with the neck. We obtained discovery and dispatch records, scrutinized the timeline, and pointed out that the complainant had already left before police came inside, raising questions about the basis for entry and the reliability of the account. We pressed these issues with the prosecutor, and after the complainant later declined to cooperate, the felony was dismissed.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Bexar County, San \u200bAntonio Municipal Court

Allegations

During a work trip, the client became separated from friends after a few drinks. Officers later found the client asleep in a public area, transported them to a sobering facility, and issued a citation for public intoxication. We got involved quickly, obtained the citation and court setting, and coordinated appearances so the client would not have to travel. We scrutinized the officer’s account of the encounter and highlighted the client’s clean record and cooperation. After negotiations, the prosecutor agreed to deferred probation, avoiding a permanent conviction upon successful completion.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law, 2

Allegations

After being cut off by another driver and striking a guardrail, our client was investigated for DWI. They admitted to drinking and attempted field sobriety tests, later telling the officer they had not passed. At the jail, a breath test was recorded and the case was filed as a high BAC charge, even though the client recalled lower readings. We scrutinized the stop, the administration of the tests, and the leap to an over .15 allegation. Using those weaknesses, we negotiated with the prosecutor and secured a reduction of the charge.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Kendall County, 498TH District Court

Allegations

Police responded to a reported crash noise and found our client parked with a flat tire and a cracked windshield. After field tests, an officer claimed the eye test showed signs of intoxication, despite conflicting lighting and instructions captured on video. The client consented to a blood draw taken hours later, and we uncovered problems with the timeline and blood kit documentation. We compiled bodycam footage, witness statements, and expert review to challenge reliability and leverage negotiations. The state agreed to deferred probation, keeping a conviction off the client’s record.

Charge

Stalking

Location

Bexar County, 227th District Court

Allegations

Police filed a stalking case arising from a strained dating relationship. While our client was on house arrest, the complainant repeatedly came to his residence, including an incident documented by responding officers who escorted her away. We gathered photos and witness information showing she initiated contact after the alleged conduct and compared that to her earlier statements. Taking a trial posture, we pressed the credibility gaps with the DA. Faced with those problems, the State dismissed the case.
