What Your Third DWI Arrest Means to You

If you have been charged with a DWI Third offense it is important that you take your case very seriously. This is a Third Degree Felony offense that is punishable by not less than two (2) years or more than ten (10) years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections together with a fine of not more than $10,000. DWI Third is a felony case.

Texas Views You as an Alcoholic

The prosecutor and judge are going to consider you to be an alcoholic no matter what your background. They will take your case seriously and so must you.

Chris Hoover strongly recommends that you be evaluated and begin treatment for alcohol addiction if you have been arrested for DWI Third. You may feel that you don’t need the education, but the Court will look favorably on you taking responsibility on addressing any potential alcohol problem that you may have.

Treatment and Possible Probation

Many DWI Third offenders who seek treatment and show a propensity for getting sober qualify for probation in DWI Third cases, but many are also sent to prison for 2-5 years. This is another thing that is dependent on the county in which your charges are filed.
