In an instant, your whole future can change for the worst. One minute, you are out having a good time - celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or special occasion, or just enjoying a night out with friends - the next thing you know, your car has been towed, and you are suddenly a criminal defendant because of a DWI.
Just as shocking as it was to see the jail door slam shut behind you, a conviction closes other doors. Your license will be taken away for a period of time, so you will have to rely on others to drive you and your family around. Your personal, work, and family life have been thrown into turmoil.
One thing is for sure - if you've been arrested for DWI in Waco or McLennan County or any of the surrounding counties (Bell, Falls, Bosque, and Hill Counties), there is no time to waste. You need to contact an experienced Waco DWI attorney immediately. Fortunately, with a highly skilled lawyer on your side, this story’s ending could be better than its beginning.

Hiring a good DWI attorney versus an excellent one can be the difference between a conviction and winning your case. There are a lot of lawyers out there who claim to be DWI lawyers, but few of them have the special training and experience necessary to successfully defend a DWI case.
Everyone knows they need to hire a good lawyer, but most people don’t know what to look for when hiring a criminal defense lawyer. This is especially important when it comes to hiring a Waco DWI attorney to defend a driving while intoxicated case. Just because a lawyer handles criminal cases doesn’t mean they have the special training and education necessary to handle this type of case. That’s why board-certified DWI attorney Walter Reaves has written a free consumer guide to arm you with the truth and to provide you with the information you need prior to speaking to any lawyer about your case.
