WHY A DWI SPECIALIST IS A MORE EFFECTIVE CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY

One of the many benefits of having a criminal defense attorney who is a DWI Specialist by the National College for DUI Defense, like J. Gary Trichter, is their level of preparedness. 

They prepare by analyzing the different aspects of a DWI case long before the client walks in the door. 

They also prepare by applying their acute understanding of the science of how alcohol affects the body—not just in general, but how it affects people INDIVIDUALLY, because alcohol’s effect on an individual is as unique as a fingerprint.

Defense attorneys who are DWI Specialists understand anatomy, biology, chemistry, physics and physiology, and we have libraries of research, case studies and experience that we’ve amassed over time.

This includes research on specific officers—including local police, sheriff’s deputies, county constables and state troopers—that indicates which officers are good or bad.

At Trichter & LeGrand, we do our own background checks on officers using the Freedom of Information Act and the Open Records Act. 

We’ll request information on an arresting officer and gain a keen understanding of what kind of official he or she is. 

In most cases were gratified to know when an officer is a good officer, but sometimes we are saddened to find that there are bad officers enforcing our laws.

For instance, we know of one trooper with our Texas Department of Public Safety who has been recommended by his peers to be terminated twice for dishonesty. We know this because we accessed his records.

A DWI Specialist combines knowledge of science with effective criminal defense acumen and skills to turn over every rock until he or she finds something that may make the difference in the ability to mount a proper defense. 

If an attorney isn’t willing to do that job, then they shouldn’t be doing legal work to help people. For us, it’s a matter of routine—we do it because it’s our job.
