Dallas DWI-DUI Defense Lawyer

Collin County • Plano • Dallas-Fort Worth

If you have been charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI / DUI) it is important that you contact The Shapiro Law Firm immediately.

If you have been arrested and charged with a DWI / DUI in the Dallas metroplex, you only have fifteen days after notification of a driver's license suspension to challenge the suspension. DWI / DUI has become a hot button political issue in Texas and across the nation. In recent years fines for DWI / DUI convictions have increased dramatically. You can no longer afford to represent yourself in a DWI / DUI case. Additionally, depending on your driving record and previous DWI / DUI history, you could face jail and the loss of your license if convicted. At the Shapiro Law Firm, our Collin County lawyers work with prosecutors and the court in exploring alternatives to harsh sentences and loss of driving privileges in DWI / DUI cases.

If you've been charged with drunk driving, it's important to contact an experienced DWI / DUI lawyer as soon as possible to challenge the suspension of your license. Our office will prepare all necessary paperwork and take whatever steps are available to try and dismiss or reduce the charges and sentence against you.

When a DWI / DUI Charge Must be Challenged

Despite what police would like the public to believe, breathalyzers are not infallible. Additionally, if an officer does not have reasonable suspicion to pull someone over, the charges against them will likely be thrown out of court. Arresting officers are also required to administer a field sobriety test according to certain prescribe procedures. If they fail to adhere to proper protocol, a DWI / DUI arrest may be thrown out as well.

If the circumstances surrounding a DWI / DUI arrest make it advisable to challenge your arrest, we have the investigative and forensic resources needed to expose violations of proper procedure, poorly maintained or improperly calibrated breathalyzers, and Constitutional violations of our client's rights.
