Criminal Defense

Jenkins | Babb, LLP provides aggressive and cost-effective criminal defense representation in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area for DUI, DWI, misdemeanor and felony charges. We understand that we represent people charged with criminal offenses, not criminals.
 
DUI / DWI:  We provide aggressive defense for DWI and DUI charges in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area when it counts most—when your freedom, your driver’s license, and a criminal history are on the line.  In addition to the potential criminal trial, an effective attorney is needed to assist you in saving your driver's license at the ALR hearing at the Department of Motor Vehicles that precedes a criminal trial. Jenkins Law Firm will present the most effective case possible at your ALR hearing.  We will challenge whether there was probable cause for making the stop, the police actions during the field sobriety test, and call into question the validity of the breathalyzer and blood test evidence with the goal being to help you keep your license, pending the outcome of the criminal trial. In the event of a driver's license suspension from the ALR hearing, we can assist you in obtaining an occupational driver's license permitting you to drive for essential needs such as work and school. The penalties for DWI charges can be severe and have results that may stay with you for a lifetime.  Additionally, if found guilty, a fine for a first offense can be in the thousands, lead to the loss of your driver’s license, and result in increased auto insurance premiums.  We are experienced in pretrial negotiations for the reduction or dismissal of your charges and stand ready to defend you if your case requires a trial.   Please call to schedule a free initial consultation so we can discuss how an experienced lawyer gives you the best opportunity to get the optimum possible outcome for your case, your freedom, and your driver’s license.
