Stephen T. Bowling: DWI & Criminal Defense Attorneys

Austin Criminal Attorneys

Texas state prosecutors work hard to secure convictions in their cases. If you are accused of a crime, whether just being questioned or if you've already been arrested, you face jail time, hefty fines, and damage to your reputation. It is critical to hire a criminal defense attorney with significant experience, a strong reputation, and the knowledge to defend your case.

We are not afraid to challenge prosecutors. From the outset, we work vigorously to get the charges against you dismissed or reduced. If a dismissal is not possible, our Austin criminal defense attorneys continue to negotiate with prosecutors, while building the strongest defense we can for trial. We investigate, interview, and work to exclude damaging evidence. Some of the offenses we vigorously defend include:

Driving While Intoxicated
Getting charged with impaired driving is different from other criminal charges. Not only do you face jail time and fines, you also have to defend your driver's license. With much of our livelihood in Texas connected with being able to drive places, you need quality representation to protect your freedom and license.

Domestic Violence
Causing or threatening to cause bodily injury against a member of your family or household can have serious, permanent consequences. There is a low bar for officers to arrest you and it's not unusual to rely mostly on witness testimony rather than physical evidence.

Drug Charges
From the simple possession of marijuana all the way up to the distribution of controlled substances, drug charges are treated seriously in Texas and they can carry lifelong consequences. No matter the offense, you need quality legal representation with your drug charge to get the best outcome.

Weapons Charges
A common weapons charge we encounter is a concealed handgun license holder arrested for a non-related crime, such as Driving While Intoxicated. In addition to the DWI, the client is also charged with Unlawful Carry of a Weapon because the presence of the weapon in the vehicle while "engaged in criminal activity" leads to the UCW charge.
