-- Texas Criminal Defense Group has announced specialized legal defense services in Dallas for individuals facing charges of Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) with a child passenger. The services respond to aggressive prosecution patterns observed in Dallas County regarding felony charges under Texas Penal Code § 49.045, which criminalizes operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated when a passenger younger than 15 years old is present.

Under Texas Penal Code § 49.045, a DWI with a child passenger younger than 15 constitutes a state jail felony, even for a first-time offender. Convictions carry mandatory sentences ranging from 180 days to two years in a state jail facility and fines reaching up to $10,000. These penalties represent a significant escalation from standard DWI misdemeanor charges, potentially resulting in lasting consequences for professional licenses, housing, and parental rights.
Prosecutors in Dallas County pursue DWI cases involving child passengers with intensity, often framing them as instances of child endangerment. To counter this, Texas Criminal Defense Group utilizes a data-driven defense, obtaining and transcribing all police reports and videos, which can exceed nine hours of footage per case. The firm also employs an in-house forensic toxicologist to analyze blood test data in every DWI case, providing a technical challenge to prosecution evidence that is rarely utilized by other firms.
Texas Criminal Defense Group focuses on helping good people who have made mistakes navigate the criminal justice system while protecting their livelihoods. Led by board-certified criminal defense attorney Stephen Hamilton, who brings 27 years of experience to the firm, the team emphasizes a forensic-first approach to defending individuals charged under § 49.045 in Dallas County.
Individuals arrested for DWI with a child passenger in Dallas should contact Texas Criminal Defense Group to examine available defense options. Given the felony classification and potential consequences of a conviction, prompt legal representation is necessary.
