DUI / DWI Law Answers

Be advised that Texas has an "Interstate Driver’s License Compact Agreement".  This means that that Texas DWI convictions will be reported to your home state, California, which will generally take action to suspend your license.  Offenses for out-of-state drivers can also create other complications.  Consequently, it’s imperative that you contact a local Texas DWI attorney to walk you through the procedures and insure that you don’t face complications with bail, jail, and your driving privileges.
