DWI Representation in Houston and Galveston County, Texas
It is not illegal to have a drink and then drive. It is illegal to drink more than the legal limit and drive. Unfortunately, this difference is not always recognized by law enforcement officials in the state of Texas. Police officers often arrest and charge drivers based solely on circumstantial evidence and try to enforce prohibition-like circumstances on honest people who have not broken the law.
My name is Bret Griffin and I am a DWI and DUI defense attorney in Galveston County, Texas. Prohibition ended a long time ago in the United States and it is important that DWI laws in the state are followed appropriately by police officers and prosecutors. I know that people convicted of a DWI will likely have to live with that outcome for the rest of their lives. It is my belief that no one should have to deal with serious penalties when no crime has been committed.
If you have been arrested for a DWI, I will work hard to get your charges dismissed and to minimize the consequences that you face. I can also help you understand your rights and how to avoid common mistakes that can lead to serious penalties.
Make a Responsible Choice of Attorney After a DWI Arrest
It is a police officer's duty to arrest someone who he or she believes has broken the law. Trying to talk your way out of the charge will not prevent the officer from doing his or her job and you will likely become the worst witness against yourself.
