Days after a DWI arrest to request an ALR hearing and fight your license suspension in Texas
Texas takes DWI and DUI charges seriously, and so does Alam Law Firm. Whether this is your first offense or a felony repeat charge, the consequences can include heavy fines, license suspension, ignition interlock requirements, and years in prison. Acting quickly is critical.
Our defense strategy starts before arraignment. We scrutinize every aspect of the arrest: the legality of the traffic stop, the accuracy of field sobriety tests, the calibration and administration of the breathalyzer, and the chain of custody for any blood samples. Flaws in any of these areas can result in evidence being suppressed or charges being reduced or dismissed entirely.
We represent clients in Harris County criminal courts — including the 174th, 176th, 177th, 178th, 179th, and 180th District Courts — and in county courts at law throughout the greater Houston area. We know these courts, these prosecutors, and how to navigate the system in your favor.
DWI & DUI Charges We Handle
A Class B misdemeanor carrying up to 180 days in jail and a $2,000 fine. We fight for dismissal, reduction, or deferred adjudication to protect your record.
Enhanced to a Class A misdemeanor with doubled penalties. We challenge the breathalyzer accuracy, testing protocol, and chain of custody to undermine the prosecution's case.
A third DWI is a third-degree felony with 2–10 years in prison. We investigate every prior conviction for validity and fight to keep you out of state prison.
A state jail felony that carries up to two years in a state jail facility. We mount an aggressive defense at every stage, from pretrial motions through trial.
Any detectable amount of alcohol in a minor's system is a DUI offense. We work to protect young clients' records and keep a single mistake from defining their future.
You have 15 days from arrest to request an Administrative License Revocation hearing. We represent you at the ALR hearing and fight to preserve your driving privileges.
Where Your Case Lives
Most Houston arrests are handled in Harris County courts, but some allegations draw federal attention. Knowing which system you are in shapes every early decision.
