DWI Multiple Offenses
A first-offense DWI carries significant penalties in Texas. If you already have one or more DWI convictions on your record, an arrest is an urgent legal matter. The consequences could include years in prison and permanent revocation of your driver’s license.
At the Rosales Law Firm, we understand the consequences of multiple DWI offenses and know how to successfully defend against these charges. Our lawyers will put more than 25 years’ combined experience to work for you.

Multiple DWI Penalties
If you have a DWI conviction on your record and have been arrested again, you may feel like the deck is stacked against you. Are these charges worth fighting? Absolutely.
Consider the penalties for second- and third-offense DWI:
| Fines | Jail Time | Driver’s License | |
| Second offense | $2,000 maximum | Up to six months | Up to one-year suspension |
| Third offense | $10,000 maximum | From two to 10 years | Up to two-year suspension |
Additionally, you will have to pay thousands of dollars over the next three years to keep your driver’s license.
If you have a DWI conviction on your record and have been arrested again, it is of the utmost importance that you consult with an experienced Texas DWI defense lawyer. Our attorneys are former assistant district attorneys and know how to find weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. We will aggressively defend you against these charges.
Defense Strategies
Being arrested for a second or third DWI does not automatically mean a conviction. At Rosales Law Firm, we take a comprehensive approach to defending against these charges and work to identify every possible weakness in the prosecution’s case.
We begin by challenging the legality of the traffic stop. If law enforcement lacked reasonable suspicion or probable cause to initiate the stop, the entire case could be subject to dismissal. We also scrutinize the administration of field sobriety tests, which are often subjective and can be improperly conducted under stressful or unclear conditions.
Breathalyzer tests can be flawed due to improper calibration, operator error or faulty equipment. Our team examines the machine’s maintenance records and officer certifications to identify technical errors that could render the test results unreliable.
We are also vigilant in identifying constitutional rights violations, including unlawful searches, improper Miranda warnings or coerced statements. When applicable, we challenge prior DWI convictions that may not have followed proper legal procedures or that occurred without adequate representation. Every case deserves a second look, especially when your freedom and future are at stake.
Our Client Approach
We believe that every client deserves honest and direct communication about their case. Our attorneys provide clear case assessments, helping you understand your situation and possible outcomes. If we take your case to court, we do so with full commitment, using aggressive defense tactics designed to protect your rights.
Your defense will not be one-size-fits-all. We craft personalized legal strategies based on your background, the facts of your case and your specific goals. We also make it a priority to educate you about the legal process so you can make informed decisions at every step.
