Houston Third DWI Offense Attorney

Facing a DWI case can be a very trying time for anyone. For those who are facing felony DWI charges, the world can feel like it is falling down upon you. All you can think about right now is whether or not you are going to prison and if so, for how long.

A third offense DWI is a 3rd Degree felony and is punishable by 2-10 years in prison and up to a $10,000.00 fine. Many people receive probation for this offense, but a great number are also sent to prison as well. We are talking about common, everyday people whose only crimes are that they drink too much and drive home. They are treated like hardened criminals and sent to prison just like the convicted robbers and rapists.

Just because you may receive probation does not mean you will not be doing any jail time. If you are granted probation for a felony DWI, you will receive a minimum ten (10) days county jail as a condition of probation. The judge can extend this up to 180 days in the county jail as a condition of probation, at his or her discretion.
