FAQs

Do I have a right to an attorney when I am stopped for a DWI investigation?

The law in Texas provides that persons stopped for DWI initially do not have the right to an attorney. In fact, you do not have a right to speak to a lawyer until after the initial investigation on the street is complete and you have been taken to jail. Most citizens do not understand that after their arrest, they are not entitled to speak to a lawyer when confronted with the decision of taking or refusing a blood, breath or urine test. Keep in mind, that it is still a good idea to request a lawyer when you are first stopped by the police and you want to continue requesting to talk with your attorney before continuing further with any of the police officers other requests.

Should I take a blood, breath or urine test?

Most of us who are experienced DWI Attorneys agree that the above tests are not completely accurate and therefore should not be taken. According to most experts of the three tests, the blood test is the most accurate, but it is too time consuming for police officers to use. The Breath test is the easiest for the officer, because the machine is available and already housed at the police station. The urine sample is the least accurate by all accounts. However, if you agree to take one of these chemical tests for the police, remember that you are then entitled to request your own independent test, so you need to request a blood test also. Most police officers will not provide you with that information. Therefore, calling an experienced DWI lawyer immediately after your arrest is important!

What happens if I refuse or fail to take one of these chemical tests?

Basically, If a person refuses or fails a blood or breath test following an arrest for driving while intoxicated, the person may receive a license suspension of 90 days up to 2 years, depending on the number of alcohol related contacts the person has had in the past. More importantly, whether you take a test, or you refuse one that the police offer, you only have 15 days after your arrest to request a hearing to fight to keep your license from being suspended. This is one of the reasons it is important to request a hearing before the State Office of Administrative Hearings to stop the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) from attempting to administratively (civilly) suspend your license. Again, calling an experienced DWI lawyer immediately after your arrest is important!

If I do not own a car, can an SR-22 be obtained?

You do not need to own a car to buy this kind of insurance. If you do not own a car, please contact an insurance agent/company of your choice and talk to them about a non-owner SR-22.

What happens if my SR-22 is cancelled?

Once the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) receives notification from the insurance company that the policy is cancelled, terminated, or lapses appropriate enforcement action may be taken. If the SR-22 is still required and there is not a valid SR-22 on file, you again face the possibility that your driving privilege and vehicle registration will be suspended. Additionally, the Court may withdraw its original court order granting you the restricted license.
