Defending a DWI Charge in Tomball
Texas laws are particularly harsh when it comes to punishing DWI offenders. If at all possible, your lawyer should put every effort into having your DWI charge reduced or dismissed. There are plenty of ways to do this. For example, one strategy we might explore at Blass Law is whether the arresting officer’s suspicion was reasonable, and they, in fact, had probable cause to pull you over.
If we can prove that the officer did not have probable cause, then the whole case goes away, as any evidence obtained from an illegal arrest would be suppressed, meaning there would have been no opportunity to identify or test you for alcohol. We can also check out the breathalyzer or blood test and results from the time of your arrest. These tests have made headlines with how unreliable they are, and your case could benefit from the media’s exposure of this fact.
Another course of action we take is to review the police video from your arrest and match what we see with the police report. Inconsistencies between the two could be your ticket out of jail. Even if we are not ultimately able to have your charge dismissed, we will work tirelessly to have your charges reduced and if necessary, to get you an occupational license from the Texas Department of Public Safety to protect your driving privileges.
