Texas DWI “No Refusal” Weekends - In Texas, you have a legal right to refuse to consent to a DWI test – a blood test or a breathalyzer test.

Many people think that if they refuse the blood alcohol or breathalyzer test when the officer asks them on the road, and they wait to get tested later, their blood alcohol level will be lower by then. They hope it’s low enough to beat the DWI charge.

How Can Police Deception During Questioning Lead To False Confessions Or Self-Incrimination?

There is a police interrogation technique known as the Reid Technique. At first, the police will pretend to be your friend. They’ll use phrases like “I just need to get all sides of the story”. At this stage, the police are banking on a persona of fairness and friendliness to get you talking, hoping to get you to say something that could incriminate you.

Sealing A Juvenile Records – If you watch crime shows on TV, you may think that juvenile criminal records are sealed as soon as a young person turns 18 and no one can ever see them again. That's not the case. Every state is different.

A juvenile criminal record can have life-limiting consequences, which is why the State of Texas has created a system to limit access to juvenile records, but it comes with conditions. The system is called Automatic Restriction of Access to Records and it means that no member of the public can see a juvenile criminal record after the person turns 21, but some restrictions apply.

Juvenile Probation Violation – When your young person was sentenced to juvenile probation, you may have breathed a sigh of relief. However, you probably didn't know how much work was going to be for your son or daughter, and for you. You didn't realize:
The juvenile Community Supervision Officer (probation officer) was going to have a lot of involvement with your family
There would be reporting requirements that had to be met, on time
School and work attendance would be monitored and if your child skipped school, you were going to get a call

Defense For Juveniles Accused Of Car Theft Or Joyriding – Unauthorized use of a motor vehicle (UUMV, or joyriding) is a common teenage crime. A teen thinks he or she can take mom or dad's car “for a quick ride” with friends without anyone noticing, but then that little adventure goes wrong.
Mom notices her car is gone and calls to report car theft to the police. Or worse:
The teen driver is involved in a car accident and the “borrowed” vehicle and other vehicles are damaged
The driver, along with his or her friends, are involved in an accident and someone is injured or killed
With a joyriding crime, the stakes can be high. In Texas, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle is a felony crime. You need a juvenile car theft attorney who knows how to fight in juvenile (and adult) court to protect your son or daughter's future.

Don’t Let a Juvenile Drug Possession Charge Limit Your Child’s Future – Your son's school found ma*****na in his locker. You got a visit from the police because someone said your daughter gave their child a prescription pill … just to try. Your child was out with friends, they got in a car accident and drugs were found in the car.

Peer pressure, the urge to experiment, fitting in with the crowd … there are lots of ways that young people can find themselves in compromising situations facing juvenile drug possession, possession of a v**e pen with traces of THC, drug distribution or juvenile drug sale charges.
