In Texas, Licenses Can Be Revoked for up to a Decade

A bill passed earlier this month makes it possible for people with five DWI convictions to have their licenses suspended for up to 10 years. Representative Stefani Carter pushed for the bill, which was named in memory of two of Carter's relatives who perished in an accident caused by a drunk driver. This bill faced almost no opposition.

While improving safety on the roads is a worthy goal, many convictions are based on faulty equipment and testing. This means that if you are manipulated into self-incrimination, you refuse to take breath or blood tests, or the tests give erroneous results, then you could be faced with severe and long-lasting consequences.

Five convictions may sound like a high number, but it is estimated that 18,000 Texans were convicted of their fifth DWI last year. This heightens the penalties for multiple convictions, which already included the potential for heavy fines and lengthy prison sentences.

Retaining the right attorney can keep you from receiving your first DWI conviction, and you certainly need to avoid repeat convictions. Whether you find yourself charged as a first-time or a repeat offender, the DWI Trial Guy™ can handle the matter. No matter the difficulty of your case, Troy P. Burleson has a proven success rate; he has more than 170 "not guilty" trial verdicts to his name. You cannot afford to have second-rate representation when it comes to something so serious.
