Most first-time DWI offenders have never been in trouble with the law before.

If you have been arrested for a first-time DWI offense in Houston or the surrounding areas, the stakes are high. Give yourself the best possible chance of keeping your record clean and enlist the help of an experienced Houston first DWI attorney.
