Navigating DWI and DUI Laws in Clarksville
Texas law treats DWI and DUI offenses seriously, and the penalties can be severe—even for a first-time offense. Our legal team works with Clarksville clients to develop strategic defenses tailored to the unique details of each case.
Common DWI/DUI Charges and Their Penalties
- Standard DWI – Class B Misdemeanor
A basic DWI charge may result in a minimum of 72 hours in jail. - DWI with an Open Container – Enhanced Class B Misdemeanor
Increases minimum jail time to six days. - High BAC of 0.15% or Higher – Class A Misdemeanor
Carries steeper penalties, including increased jail time and fines.
Understanding BAC Limits in Texas
In Texas, a BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) of 0.08% or more typically qualifies as legal intoxication. However, officers can still arrest you for lower levels if your ability to drive appears impaired. Our attorneys will evaluate the accuracy and legality of all testing methods used in your arrest.
Building a Strong Defense in Your Clarksville DWI/DUI Case
We explore all avenues for defense, including:
- Investigating the Initial Stop
Was the traffic stop lawful and based on reasonable suspicion? - Reviewing Breathalyzer and Blood Test Procedures
Testing errors, improper calibration, or operator mistakes may affect results. - Challenging Field Sobriety Tests
Environmental conditions, medical issues, or nervousness may distort results. - Medical and Health-Related Defenses
Conditions like hypoglycemia or acid reflux can influence BAC readings. - Evaluating Pre-Trial Diversion Options
First-time offenders in Clarksville may qualify for alternative sentencing programs.
