DWI Charges Demand Immediate Action

Strategic Defense for First-Time & Repeat DWI Offenses in Texas

A DWI arrest can disrupt your life in an instant—but a conviction can impact your freedom, your finances, and your future for years to come. At Christian & Nisbet, we don’t just manage cases—we build aggressive, trial-ready defenses from day one. If you've been arrested for driving while intoxicated, it’s time to protect your record, your license, and your reputation.

We Handle All DWI-Related Charges, Including:

  • First-time and repeat DWI offenses

  • Commercial driver DWI

  • Underage DWI

  • Intoxication assault

  • Intoxication manslaughter

  • Administrative License Revocation (ALR) hearings

  • Refusal or failure of breath, blood, or field sobriety tests

Whether this is your first charge or you’re facing enhanced penalties, we tailor our strategy to the specific facts of your case.

OUR APPROACH

Strategic, Focused, Trial-Ready

We don’t rely on templates or cut corners. Every DWI case we take on is built for possible trial—even if it never goes to court. Why? Because preparation is power. From reviewing arrest footage and field sobriety procedures to examining breathalyzer calibration and constitutional violations, we scrutinize every element for an advantage.

And unlike larger firms, when you hire Christian & Nisbet, you work directly with seasoned attorneys—not associates or case managers.

The Consequences Are Real—and Escalate Fast

DWI charges in Texas carry serious penalties, even for a first offense:

  • Fines up to $2,000 for first offenses (up to $10,000 for felonies)

  • Jail time ranging from 3 days to 10 years

  • License suspension from 90 days to 2 years

  • Installation of ignition interlock devices

  • Permanent criminal record

  • Increased insurance costs and employment barriers

If this is your second or third offense, or if your case involves injury or death, the stakes are significantly higher. Felony charges can lead to extended prison time and long-term loss of rights.
