Labor Day weekend brings heavier traffic across Southeast Texas, and our team at Portner Bond PLLC encourages everyone to take extra care on the road. Holiday celebrations also tend to come with an increase in impaired-driving incidents, making planning ahead essential for your safety.

If you’ll be celebrating with alcohol, consider arranging a safe way home before heading out. Whether you choose a rideshare, designate a sober driver, or stay overnight, a simple plan can help prevent serious car accidents and keep our communities safer.

Our office will be closed on Labor Day and will reopen Tuesday morning. We look forward to assisting you then.

We hope you and your family have a safe and restful holiday weekend.
