Have You Been Arrested For Drinking And Driving?
Hire A Lawyer That Can Work The Texas DUI Laws In Your Favor!
Getting arrested for drinking and driving can be downright frightening. So you’ll be relived to know that there are many Texas DUI laws in place to help protect you and ensure that your rights are preserved.
With the right DWI / DUI defense attorney on your side, you can effectively challenge many aspects of your drinking and driving arrest. As a result, you can greatly increase your chances of successfully fighting the charges against you.
DWI / DUI laws in Texas require the prosecution to create a solid case against you. Remember, the burden is on the prosecution to prove that you violated Texas DUI laws. Therefore, your DWI / DUI defense attorney must know about the following challenges:
- Proving You Were Driving: Texas DUI laws require that the government prove you were actually operating the vehicle and that you were doing so in a public place.
- Proving the Cause: The government must also prove that the officer had probable cause to believe you were drinking and driving before he or she pulled you over. If probable cause cannot be determined, any tests that were administered afterward may be inadmissible in court.
- The Tests: Tests commonly used to prove you were drinking and driving are not always reliable. If your DWI / DUI defense attorney can prove the appropriate procedures were not followed, the information can be inadmissible in court. If you refused to take the test, your DWI / DUI defense attorney must put certain procedures in motion to prevent this information from being used against you.
Although facing drinking and driving charges is certainly scary and should be taken very seriously, you can rest a bit easier when you have a lawyer that is Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization on your side.
