I got a 1st DWI and looking for free consultation to find next steps…… ~ July 2025 Live Admin Chat!
A first-time DWI can feel overwhelming and confusing. You may be unsure about what happens next, what penalties you could face, or how this charge will affect your future. The good news is that you don’t have to go through this alone. Speaking with an experienced DWI defense attorney can help you understand your options and build a strategy for your case.
What You Can Expect After a First DWI
In Texas, a first DWI is usually a Class B misdemeanor, but the penalties can still be serious. You could face:
-
Jail time (up to 180 days)
-
A fine of up to $2,000
-
Driver’s license suspension
-
Probation, community service, or mandatory alcohol education classes
The circumstances of your arrest—such as your blood alcohol concentration (BAC), whether an accident occurred, or if there were minors in the vehicle—can increase the severity of penalties.
Why a Free Consultation Matters
When you schedule a free consultation with a DWI defense lawyer, you’ll have the opportunity to:
-
Review the details of your arrest
-
Understand possible defenses (such as challenging the traffic stop, breathalyzer results, or field sobriety tests)
-
Learn what steps to take right away to protect your license and record
-
Get clarity on the legal process moving forward
Take Action Quickly
Deadlines matter in DWI cases. For example, you may only have 15 days from the date of your arrest to request a hearing to try to save your driver’s license. The sooner you speak with an attorney, the better your chances of minimizing the consequences.
