Hamilton, TX DWI Law Firms & Lawyers

First, try and get out of your DWI. And to stand a chance at that you need a DWI attorney. You have 2 years to sue the tow truck. Get out of the DWI first.

Possible, but little way to know for sure. It is not like CSI. Back then it was not really computerized and locals do not necessarily share with state or feds. If state and feds are putting FP into the system from old arrests, they likely are more focused on Felony and violent offenders. That would probably take all the time they have allotted.

The gun case is largely dependent upon what happens with the DWI. If you have a CHL, then the only way to beat the gun case is to beat the DWI.  The strength of the DWI depends on (a) how you looked on the cops dashcam video (if there was one); (b) the station video (if there was one); (c) whether there was a breath test or a blood test; and (d) what you told the officer during the course of his/her investigation and arrest. If you look normal and sound normal on the videos, and there is no breath or blood tests, you should not plea guilty to it, in my opinion.  Your options with respect to the DWI is to plead guilty to it, or set it for trial. You can't get deferred probation in Texas on an alcohol case, so that is why the options are more limited than for some other type of cases. Often, the only way to avoid a conviction for a DWI charge is to take it to trial, and to win.
