WHEN YOU HAVE EVERYTHING TO LOSE

We are the Houston Texas criminal defense lawyers of Stradley Chernoff & Alford, LLP and we understand that some people charged with DWI have more to lose than just time and money. Reputation, employment, security clearance, driving privileges and peace of mind are all at stake upon conviction for Driving While Intoxicated.

Many years ago, a DWI conviction was viewed as not much more egregious than a traffic violation. Political and social forces have combined to cause stronger enforcement for all drug and alcohol related offenses. Punishments have been raised and the privilege to drive is now seriously impacted by a drunk driving arrest.

Even more troubling, the rise of the internet and increased data storage now makes it likely that any arrest and conviction will be made available to future and present employers, insurers, credit agencies and other interested parties for many, many years into the future.

We are former Harris County Texas Assistant District Attorneys, Board Certified in Criminal Defense, with over 50 years combined criminal trial experience. Our firm philosophy is simple: We aggressively and obsessively fight every single DWI prosecution until we obtain the right result for our client.

WHEN DISMISSAL OR VICTORY AT TRIAL IS THE ONLY OPTION

Our clients come to us with one goal in mind; to win their DWI case. We have obtained many acquittals for our clients and many more dismissals. Our clients can accept no other resolution.

We thoroughly investigate each case to determine the best DWI Defense available to the client. If necessary, we aggressively attack the officer’s opinion of our client’s performance on Field Sobriety Tests. In the event our client took a Breath Test, we provide jurors with ample evidence why the machine clearly did not work in our client’s case.

Many times, our clients were pulled over and stopped by police officer without cause. We always stand before the Government to prevent the use of evidence obtained through illegal Search and Seizure. We leave no stone unturned to ensure the correct result for our clients. We never forget that our clients have everything to lose.

WHEN YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO HAVE YOUR LICENSE SUSPENDED

If you have been arrested for DWI, you have reason to be concerned about your privilege to drive. The Texas Department of Public Safety will suspend your license automatically if you don’t contest your arrest. We require DPS to prove the validity of the stop and arrest at an Administrative License Revocation hearing. We vigorously cross-examine witnesses and subpoena evidence. We fight every step of the way to prevent DPS from taking away your ability to drive.

If your license is suspended, we help you obtain an Occupational License so that you can maintain your employment and continue to fulfill your family responsibilities. Our objective is to make sure our clients never face a single day without the ability to drive.
