DWI License Suspension in Houston

Losing your Driving Privileges

If you have been charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI), you have 15 days from the date of your arrest to schedule an administrative hearing to prevent the loss of your driving privileges. The administrative process is separate from your criminal case. At the hearing, information regarding your drunk driving arrest and the charges against you will be reviewed. An attorney can be present to represent your rights and interest, interview witnesses and challenge any evidence that is presented. If you fail to schedule or attend the hearing, your license will automatically be suspended. You will also face license suspension if you refused to take a breath or blood test at the time of your arrest. A Houston DWI lawyer from the firm can provide aggressive representation at your hearing.
