Miracle Working Attorney

I rec'd my 2nd DWI with child 10 years after my first. For the type of work I do, I could NOT have a felony charge on my record. I met with Doug and was impressed. He was very honest and explained this would be difficult but not impossible. He immediately had me attend AA meetings, attend repeat offe...nder program, attend A Court Class, and get a sober link which I breathed in 4 times a day. My case took a while to finally see a court room which made me stress more but worked in my favor because it allowed me the time to do all the things he asked me to do. I made sure I did it all too!! I finally met with the DA and went before the judge. Doug was not only able to have my felony charges reduced to a misdemeanor but I did not have to do any jail time. Doug & his staff were very detailed oriented & kept me up to date through text, email, phone, & program that I had access to at any time. I highly recommend him to anyone who can benefit from his services. I would have my friends and family use his services, if, god forbid, they got a felony or misdemeanor charge brought upon them. Doug actually cared about me and my case and made sure I knew that.

Former Dallas Police Officer Currently Business Owner

In November 2013 I was falsely accused of an assault. The complainant stated that I had caused a small bruise to her left knee. The Police was called and a couple of days later I was arrested by Dallas Police Department which was the Department I was at the time working for. By that time I had alread...y hired an attorney who failed to be with me at the time of the interrogation regarding the false accusation. One week later I couldn't afford this one attorney so I ended up hiring another attorney who just kept on telling me to accept the plea that the court was offering me, but since I knew I committed no assault, why would I accept and plea bargain and have an assault charge in my record for the rest of my life? Lastly, I knew I had to get myself another attorney that will give me a fair result. Someone who I could trust, someone who was not just going to get my money and not work for it. I contacted another Dallas Police Officer who was also arrested and had hired Doug Wilder as his attorney. This one Officer gave me a great reference. I decided to call another Officer who also knows Doug Wilder and also talked really good about him and how successful his results are. I placed that call to Doug and within a couple of minutes of being on the phone with him I told him I wanted to hire him and to represent me regarding my case. By then I was already living in another city nowhere close to DFW, but the distance was never a problem. Doug worked hard, quick and efficient to help me solve my case. Within a couple of months Doug Wilder had worked with the DA's to look at the evidence and my case was dismissed. This was the best decision I could ever make. I had finally hired the right attorney. If I would've heard of Doug way before, he would've been the first to hire. If I wouldn't have hired Doug I could've faced some time in jail and a fine. Thank you Doug.

So Glad I Had Them On My Side

After receiving my DWI at double the legal limit, I had to get a lawyer quick. First, I called a few lawyers some very rude almost laughing at me for even asking how much it was to hire them and some sounding like they just wanted my money. I felt a little helpless still not giving up on faith that e...verything will be okay. I finally I called Doug's office (didn’t call them at first because they had so many good reviews I thought there was no way I could afford them) and spoke with Rebecca. She was very informative she told me everything up ahead, she told me what to expect. She made me feel prepare so I had to hire them. With little income that I had they were willing to help me, I gave them all I could to pay them off and still they didn’t treat me any different when I couldn’t pay them off right away. A year later Doug was able to get me 15mo probation with NO INTERLOCK!! I am so satisfied with the Wilder Team, I couldn’t be happier!

Wilder defense

Excellent representation. Reduced what could have been a bad outcome to an acceptable and manageable result. Better results than I thought possible under the circumstances. Doug Wilder and his staff care about there clients enough to fight tirelessly and never give up.
