DUI - DWI Offenses
Public perception categorizes people charged with drunk driving in Texas as criminals, even before they have been convicted of any crime. Being arrested for drunk driving, driving under the influence (DUI), or driving while intoxicated (DWI) can be a scary proposition. A DUI-DWI conviction in Texas carries with it a variety of possible criminal penalties, including:
- Alcohol assessment and treatment
- Criminal record
- Fines and forfeitures
- Increased insurance rates
- Jail or prison sentence
- Job loss
- Probation
- Suspension or loss of license
- Vehicle immobilization or forfeiture
If you have been arrested or accused of drunk driving, DUI, DWI, vehicular homicide, or any other alcohol-related criminal offense in Texas, you are probably frightened and confused.
