Criminal Defense Case Results in Williamson, TX

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

After a domestic argument at a residence, the client forced open a locked bedroom door and police alleged the door injured a family member's hand. We pulled the reports and bodycam footage, and the video showed only a minor abrasion and no intent to harm. The complaining witness later signed an affidavit of non-prosecution, which we presented to the prosecutor. We documented the client's counseling and proactive steps, challenged the elements of assault, and made clear we were ready for trial. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Williamson County, CC5

Allegations

Officers approached after the client remained stopped at a traffic light, then conducted a DWI investigation. The client performed field sobriety tests and a blood sample was taken at the jail. We obtained the videos, reports, and lab paperwork, and challenged the basis for the stop, the way the tests were administered, and the circumstances of the blood draw. We also pressed the state on its ability to prove a true second offense. After sustained negotiations, the prosecution agreed to reduce the case to a lesser charge.

Charge

Assault Causing Bodily Injury

Location

Williamson County, CCL5

Allegations

Police arrested our client after a heated encounter in a residential parking area where a tow truck was blocking the only entrance. Words escalated, the other man hurled slurs, and our client briefly grabbed him but did not strike or pursue a fight. We tracked down neutral witnesses, including on-site staff, who had seen the complainant provoking residents even before the exchange. We gathered their accounts and presented them to the prosecutor, challenging the complainant’s version of events. After reviewing the witness statements, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Driving With a Suspended License

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

Following a minor fender bender, the other driver made a report and officers later ran our client's information, discovering the license was suspended from an older alcohol case. A warrant issued and the client was arrested for driving with a suspended license. We moved quickly to verify the license had since been reinstated, obtained SR22 and reinstatement receipts, and organized those records. We met with the prosecutor, presented the documentation and timeline, and pressed for a clean resolution. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Duty on Striking a Structure, Fixture, or Highway Landscaping

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

Police alleged our client struck a roadside fixture and failed to meet the statutory duty to report the damage. We obtained the patrol report, bodycam, and scene photos, and focused on the elements the state had to prove, including the amount of damage, whether an identifiable owner or agency was available, and what steps were taken to notify authorities. The evidence left key facts in dispute and did not clearly establish a violation. After negotiations and pressure to proceed without solid proof, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

After backing out of a parking space, the client was stopped almost immediately when an officer claimed the vehicle crossed center lines while reversing. Field sobriety tests were conducted, the client declined breath testing, and officers obtained a blood warrant. We secured dashcam video from the vehicle and compared it to the report, raising doubt about the stated reason for the stop and how the roadside tests were administered. We challenged the stop and the blood draw procedures, and the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

Police contacted the client after a brief driving incident near a store and made a DWI arrest. Field sobriety tests were attempted even though the client had chronic knee pain and ongoing memory issues, which affected balance and following instructions. A blood sample was taken, and the client did not recall consenting. We obtained the dashcam, bodycam, police report, any blood warrant and full lab records to examine collection, transport and testing. Using those weaknesses and the medical limitations, we secured probation.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Williamson County, Round Rock Municipal Court

Allegations

The client was arrested for public intoxication after an incident at a construction site where officers conducted roadside tests and claimed he was a danger. No breath or blood test was taken. We obtained the body camera footage, 911 call, and reports, and challenged whether the evidence actually showed danger to self or others as required. While pressing those issues, we also presented mitigation the client completed promptly, including community service. The prosecution agreed to dismiss, and the case was closed.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

Following a domestic argument at a residence, police arrested our client for assault family violence after noting a cracked interior door and the complainant’s initial statement. We obtained the reports and body-camera video, which showed no physical contact that day and raised issues with claims about a prior incident. The complainant later signed an affidavit of non-prosecution, which we presented to the State. The client completed an anger-management course and community service. We leveraged these facts, and the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI with Child Passenger

Location

Williamson County, 277th Judicial District Court

Allegations

The client was arrested for DWI with a child passenger after an officer reported reckless driving and a near miss during a traffic stop. A family member retrieved the children from the scene. With no prior record, we moved quickly to gather the reports and available video, examine the arrest narrative, and identify leverage points. We emphasized the client’s clean history and addressed the state’s child-safety concerns in negotiations. The case resolved with deferred adjudication and supervision, keeping a conviction off the record.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

A traffic stop for an expired registration led to a DWI investigation. The officer relied heavily on the eye test and noted some difficulty on the walk and turn, but there was no bad driving observed. The client refused breath testing, consented to a blood draw, and the result later came back below the legal limit with no drugs detected. We reviewed bodycam and reports, emphasizing the lack of impairment cues and a timeline that undercut any claim of a higher BAC while driving. We pressed these issues with the prosecutor, and the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Williamson County, CC2

Allegations

After a minor rear‑end crash, the client was arrested for DWI following field sobriety tests. They reported taking prescribed sleep medication after a sleepless night, and the blood analysis showed zero alcohol. We dug into the videos and lab reports and pressed the state on whether prescription use actually caused impairment at the time of driving. Using that leverage, we negotiated a diversion agreement with monitoring, testing, and classes. The client completed all requirements, and the prosecution dismissed the case.
