Fort Bend, Katy, Sugar Land and Richmond Texas DWI Attorney
Former Fort Bend Judge
As a former Judge, I founded the David Hunter Law Firm in Sugar Land with the intent of providing aggressive, strong and effective DWI defense. While I understand that drunk driving is dangerous and can result in the loss of life, I also believe that everyone deserves a fair defense. Additionally, I understand that not everyone charged with driving intoxicated has actually lost control of their normal mental and physical abilities. In fact, some people have been charged with drunk driving while they were still completely sober.
I have witnessed first-hand the complexities of criminal defense from my experience as a Texas Judge. Extensive knowledge of the criminal law along with an in-depth understanding of the strategies and procedures used by the prosecutors and police is essential to an effective defense. My past experience has given me the knowledge and skill to effectively defend your legal rights and fight your DWI case in the Fort Bend and Sugar Land areas.
A first-time Fort Bend DWI can result in fines up to $2000, a 90 day license
suspension, 6 months in jail, 24 hours community service and a mandatory DWI
class. The penalties are even worse for subsequent DWI convictions. Third-time
DWIs are felonies, which can prevent you from being able to own a firearm or
vote ever again. It is crucial to have a good Fort Bend DWI lawyer at your
side when you face charges of this nature.
Not only are the consequences of a Fort Bend DWI conviction expensive, but the effects can adversely affect other areas of your lifestyle and career. The social stigmatization and increased use of background checks can allow a DWI conviction to get in the way of future housing, employment and other opportunities. Don’t take chances with your future; rely on a Fort Bend attorney who has the background, education and understanding to build a winning defense.
I understand the uncertainty you may feel when you are charged with a DWI and I hope to help put your mind at ease with my experience as a Fort Bend judge as well as a Sugar Land DWI attorney. I know how a DWI can affect your future and I will do whatever I can to help acquire the most successful outcome possible for your specific case.
Many people believe their cases are unbeatable when there is a strong opportunity for a successful defense. Frequently, those faced with a DWI believe their failure of a field sobriety test and a breathalyzer test can mean their case is hopeless. In reality, with a strong defense by a Fort Bend DWI lawyer, there is a good likelihood you will win your case or at least have your charges dropped. Mistakes are made by the police, there are contributing factors that affect your BAC, field sobriety tests are inaccurate –particularly when performed under less than optimal conditions, you may have a medical condition that appears as symptoms of intoxication, or your breath, urine or blood test may have been administered incorrectly. In some cases your charges could be reduced or possibly dismissed. Additionally, I can help defend you in your Administrative License Review hearing to prevent your license suspension.
Over the years, I have demonstrated that I am a Fort Bend DWI lawyer capable of effectively representing defendants for a potential case dismissal. My office is located in Sugar Land and I am available to represent DWI defendants in Katy, Fort Bend and Richmond, Texas.
