Understanding DWI Charges in Temple, TX: What You’re Really Facing

Posted by Bobby Dale BarinaMay 02, 20250 Comments

DWI charges in Texas are serious—and local prosecutors don't take them lightly. If you've been arrested for Driving While Intoxicated in Temple or anywhere in Bell County, you face criminal penalties, driver's license suspension, and long-term consequences.

A first-time DWI is usually a Class B misdemeanor but can quickly escalate if your blood alcohol level was high, if there was a child passenger, or if an accident occurred.

At Barina Law Group, we investigate every aspect of your DWI case, including:

  • Probable cause for the traffic stop
  • Accuracy of field sobriety and breath tests
  • Officer conduct and dashcam footage
  • Chain of custody for blood samples

We also represent clients at ALR hearings to fight license suspension and seek occupational licenses to allow limited driving during your case.

Don't let a DWI define your future. We serve Temple, Fort Cavazos, Killeen, and all of Central Texas.
