Fort Bend County Felony DWI Lawyer
Let Us Protect Your Rights Today - Call (281) 232-0505
Most driving while intoxicated (DWI) charges in Texas are considered misdemeanors and require a minimum fine, license revocation and, in some cases, and a short jail stay. But a DWI can turn into a felony offense for a number of reasons. If you are charged with a felony, your penalties will be much more severe - you could be facing prolonged punishments and lengthy revocation of your driver's license. After an arrest, it is important that, regardless of whether it is a misdemeanor or a felony charge, you contact an attorney right away.
DWI charges can turn into felony offenses under the following conditions:
- Third-Time Offenders - Those who have been arrested twice for drunk driving prior to their third DWI arrest will be charged with a felony DWI.
- Driving While Intoxicated with a Passenger of 15 Years or Less - Having a minor in the car with you who is 15 years of younger, even if this is your first DWI charge, will result in a felony charge.
- Intoxication Assault - If bodily injury is caused to a person while you were driving under the influence, then you will be charged with the felony of intoxication assault.
- Manslaughter - If you were involved in an accident that resulted in the death of another individual because you were operating under the influence, you will be charged with a felony DWI and manslaughter charges.
