Houston Multiple DWI Attorney

Charged with multiple DWI in Houston, Texas?

A second or third DWI will result in much more severe penalties than a first-time DWI. If you have been charged with a second DWI, you could face a class A misdemeanor charge, which could result in the following penalties:

Up to 1 year in jail
Up to thousands of dollars in fines
Minimum of 80 hours community service
Required Victim Impact Panel attendance
Required installation of a Deep Lung Air Device (formerly called “ignition interlock device”)
DWI education class

If you are charged with a third (or more) DWI, the penalties could include the following:

Up to 10 years incarceration
Up to $10,000 in fines
Minimum 160 hours community service
Required Victim Impact Panel attendance
DWI education
Up to 2 years license suspension
Felony charge
Required installation of a Deep Lung Air Device (formerly called “ignition interlock device”)
You could even be banned from any establishment that serves alcohol

These consequences are in addition to the social and economic hardships that you will face as a convicted felon. You could have difficulties getting certain jobs and your car insurance costs could skyrocket.
