DWI Defense

Don’t Lose Your License or Go to Jail - San Antonio DWI Attorney Bill Baskette Can Help

Charged with DWI? We Can Help Protect Your Rights!

If you’ve been charged with DWI or refused to take a breathalyzer test, you have a limited number of days to challenge the suspension of your license. At office of San Antonio DUI lawyer Bill Baskette, I take immediate action to restore your driving privileges and dismiss the charges against you. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your DWI charge, you could have your license suspended or revoked, pay a heavy fine, or face jail time.

A DWI is a Serious Matter and Requires the Immediate Advice of an Attorney.

As former judge and prosecutor, I have over 24 years of legal experience, including nine years on the bench, and a thorough knowledge of the court system. My experience behind the bench and on the other side of the courtroom has given me a wealth of knowledge and insight into how prosecutors and judges approach cases. This knowledge tells me where to look for cracks in the state's case against you, and craft a solid, well-planed defense aimed at either exonerating you or minimizing the punishment you will face if convicted.

Challenging Your DWI Charge

Some people charged with DWI choose to plead guilty in order to minimize penalties or avoid paying certain fines. However, if you are convicted of DWI – even if the prosecutor agrees not to suspend your license or fine you – the state will charge you $1,000 a year to renew your license. Additionally, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to find an insurance company to insure you. And, depending on your occupation, you may be barred from applying for certain kinds of employment. Don’t plead guilty without a fight – a DWI conviction can come back to haunt you in a number of ways.

I Aggressively Challenge DWI Charges

As your San Antonio DWI attorney, I request evidence from the state, including the videotape of your pullover, information related to the condition of the breathalyzer, and any report filed. I meticulously review the minutes leading up to your pullover to determine if the police had probable cause. Having been a prosecutor and a judge, I know the law and how to evaluate police actions and testimony.
