Tips for Defending DWI Charges in Texas

Drinking and driving is an offense that occurs frequently, and the penalties for conviction can be harsh. If you are pulled over, and you have had a few drinks, the most important thing you should remember is your right to remain silent. One very detrimental element in any criminal case is a confession of any kind. But unfortunately, you may already be past that point. If you have already been arrested and charged with an offense, then here are three easy tips for you to follow in order to help prevent any further damage do your case.

  1. Retain the legal services of a Denton criminal defense lawyer from Wheeler Law Office as soon as possible. There are many mistakes that police officers can make when pulling someone over on suspicion of DWI, and the more time we have to investigate the situation, the better chance that we will expose this mistake.
  2. Stay off of social media. Posting pictures of your night out, and sending messages to your friends with details concerning the event could be accessible by law enforcement and the prosecution. In today’s day and age, prosecution will use information provided on your social media accounts if it helps to build their case against you.
  3. Comply with the authorities. It is crucial that you make your court dates, and that you are on time. Our legal team can help ensure that you know when and where you are required to appear.
