You may wonder what you get when you retain a DWI defense attorney, and that’s a good thing. It is important for you to know what you are buying when you retain legal counsel. Speak with your attorney and get a handle on what they can and cannot do for you throughout your case. Rest assured that your attorney can help you in many ways, like helping you to understand the charges against you, as well as the potential consequences of a conviction. Your attorney will speak to you about the details of your case because much of their work involves using what they know about the law and about the facts of your case to determine what kinds of defense strategies may be available to you. Another part of the work of a DWI defense attorney is helping their clients understand their options for resolving their DWI cases and how each possible option could impact their lives.

While some DWI defendants may feel as though they do not need to go out and select an attorney because they qualify for the services that are offered by public defenders, it is essential that all DWI defendants understand the difference between using a public defender for a DWI case and using private counsel. Public defenders are attorneys who are paid by the state to provide legal assistance to people who meet certain economic criteria. Private counsel is an attorney that the defendant has selected and retained at his or her own expense. All attorneys do their best to represent the interests of their clients, but unfortunately, public defenders have less control over how many cases they handle at any given time than private counsel do, so they may have little time to work on each of their cases. Also, in Texas there is another distinction between the public defender and private counsel – public defenders in Texas do not participate in the administrative license suspension process. Drivers who are charged with DWI must request an ALR hearing if they wish to avoid license suspension and only private counsel can handle those requests and hearings.
