Choosing the Right DWI Defense Lawyer

Tad Nelson & Associates — Galveston County and Houston, Texas

Although there are a number of potentially effective strategies for defending someone charges with DWI — the number one strategy for avoiding a DWI conviction has nothing to do with anything any attorney can do for you. Instead, it has everything to do with the care you take in choosing that attorney.

At Tad Nelson & Associates, our attorneys have put in the extra time and effort needed to stay up-to-date and knowledgeable about the latest techniques and approaches to DWI defense. Mr. Nelson is also a member of the National College for DUI Defense and has been recognized as a criminal law specialist by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Lastly, as a former assistant district attorney, Tad Nelson's unique understanding of how the prosecution approaches these cases has proven invaluable to our firm's clients time and again. Tad Nelson has also completed all classes and certifications that are required for the officers as they put you through the DWI process.

Effective DWI Defense Strategies

Important questions any DWI defense lawyer should ask include:

  • Did the arresting officers have the necessary probable cause required to pull you over in the first place?
  • Were field sobriety tests administered properly?
  • Was the breathalyzer functioning correctly?
  • How was the machine calibrated?
  • Were proper arrest procedures followed?
  • Was a blood test taken, and if so, how was that evidence handled and then later analyzed?
