DUI Defense Attorney Costs in Texas

DUI attorneys typically charge flat fees for straightforward first-offense cases, with higher fees for repeat offenses, cases involving accidents, or those going to trial. Payment plans are commonly available.

Typical Cost

First offense: $2,500-$5,000 flat fee. Second offense or aggravated DUI: $5,000-$10,000+. Trial cases: $7,500-$15,000+.

Statute of Limitations

DUI charges are typically filed shortly after arrest, so statute of limitations is rarely an issue. However, the critical deadline is the administrative license hearing request — usually 7 to 30 days from arrest. Missing this deadline means automatic license suspension regardless of the criminal case outcome.

What to Expect

1

Urgent initial consultation to evaluate your case and determine if the license hearing deadline is approaching

2

Filing a request for an administrative hearing to challenge your license suspension

3

Review of all evidence: dashcam footage, bodycam, breath/blood test results, police reports, and calibration records

4

Identifying procedural errors, rights violations, or testing issues that may lead to evidence suppression

5

Negotiation with prosecutors for charge reduction or dismissal if weaknesses exist in the state's case

6

Trial preparation and representation if a fair plea agreement cannot be reached
