Wimberley DWI Attorney 512-392-9292 Wimberley, Texas

http://www.SanMarcosDWI.com If you're arrested for DWI in Wimberley Texas call the Law Office of Scot Courtney 512-392-9292. Licensed in 1994 Scot has over 17 years of DWI experience representing hundreds of DWI clients. DWI - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is the most frequently prosecuted misdemeanor offense in the State and one with some of the most damaging and far-reaching ramifications of a citizen's everyday life, if convicted. Every other offense in the State of Texas, if the sentence is probated cannot be used to enhance punishment of subsequent charges, with one exception, DWI. A first offense is a Class B Misdemeanor; a second charge is a Class A Misdemeanor and a third charge is a Felony of the 3rd Degree, with the very real potential of incarceration in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice -- Institutional Division, better known as prison. That being said, it is extremely important to try and prevent the first DWI conviction, if at all possible in defending the charge. Many people make the potentially fatal mistake of failing to defend themselves in a first offense DWI. First offenders are typically offered a relatively light punishment involving probation, under the assumption that they do not intend to ever place themselves in a position of being charged a second time. Unfortunately, they do not truly realize that due to the extremely subjective nature of the charge (i.e. the Peace Officer's opinion that someone is intoxicated) when a citizen is stopped on a minor traffic violation and might have had a beer or glass of wine with dinner, if the Officer smells an odor of an alcoholic beverage and then runs the driver's license, discovering the prior DWI, that citizen's chance of being arrested and charged with DWI again, is extremely high.
