Challenging Field Sobriety, Breath, and Blood Tests

Defending against drunk driving allegations in Dallas County requires deep forensic scrutiny. The firm systematically challenges roadside field sobriety tests, breathalyzer machine calibrations, and forced blood draw search warrants. Officers frequently violate standardized roadside testing protocols or lack reasonable suspicion for the initial stop. The legal team reviews officer body camera video, squad car recordings, and hospital toxicology reports to uncover procedural flaws, file motions to suppress illegally obtained evidence, and dismantle the prosecution's case before a jury.

Driver's License Suspension and ALR Hearing Defense

A Texas DWI arrest initiates two separate legal proceedings: the criminal charge and an Administrative License Revocation action before the State Office of Administrative Hearings. Drivers have only fifteen days from the date of arrest to request a hearing to contest the suspension of their driver's license. The firm represents clients at these administrative hearings to challenge the officer's probable cause, lock in sworn testimony for trial, and protect client driving privileges through occupational driver's licenses.

Comprehensive Criminal Defense and Traffic Ticket Advocacy

Beyond misdemeanor and felony DWI offenses, the practice delivers assertive courtroom representation across a broad spectrum of Texas criminal law. This includes drug crime defense, domestic violence allegations, assault, weapons offenses, theft, and probation violations. In addition, the firm represents commercial drivers and everyday motorists facing speeding tickets and moving violations, protecting commercial driving credentials and insurance rates from severe statutory penalties.
