Is it possible for a first offense under 21 DUI to be allowed to walk away and keep the license?

Not likely. Texas is a zero tolerance state. You may have been charged with DWI or DUI (any amount of alcohol.). You need a lawyer regardless.

What am I looking at without a lawyer

Tristan Nicolas Legrande
Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
You're in luck, you don't need to find out what you are looking at without a lawyer, because you are entitled to one if you cannot afford it. Umlawful carry of a weapon is a class A misdemeanor, up to 1yr in jail, up to a $4k fine. Assault family violence is a class A misdemeanor as well, unless there is an allegation of choking, then it is a 3rd degree felony, 2 to 10 yrs in prison, up to a $10k fine. If you decide to proceed without an attorney and represent yourself pro se? You are looking at the same potential punishments as if you had an attorney, but the outcome of your case may end up much worse. No one is wise to represent themselves in a criminal case. If you cannot afford a lawyer, a court appointed lawyer is your best bet.    Good luck.

Why is the DWI that was dismissed on record and can the court, use that against me?

John E. DeVito
Answered by attorney John E. DeVito (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at John DeVito
This is a common misnomer. People believe that if a case is dismissed it is not on their criminal record. In Massachusetts a "court record" is created once a complaint issues. A "criminal record" or CORI is created once a defendant is arraigned on the charges. The charges may ultimately be dismissed, but the dismissal is reflected on the CORI. The importance of a dismissal is that one can honestly state that they were never convicted of the crime charged. To clear your record in Massachusetts one must seal their record. Sealing a record does not necessarily mean that someone cannot find that you were arrested. If one is arrested and fingerprinted in Massachusetts all fingerprints are sent to the FBI. That creates an arrest record which is difficult to seal. If you have concerns about your record consult an experienced criminal attorney.
