I was recently charged with a DWI. After meeting with 6 prospecting attorneys, I preferred Wilder Law Firm over the other due to previous references but more importantly there were no false promises made during my consultation. The firm highlighted the fact that their office drives their best outcome...s based on proactive self-actions. Mandating that with timely intervention and proactive action being the most important for an optimal outcome in my case. I really appreciate the diligence and the thoroughness throughout the entire process. I really liked Amy’s thoroughness and a no nonsense attitude in pushing me during the process which helped a lot. Megan’s Initial conversation with me cleared a lot of the doubts I had. I would like to thank Mr. Wilder and his entire team for their credibility and efforts in driving this outcome. As I am progressing through sobriety, I really appreciated the various recommendations and interventions that has helped me in my personal recovery as well. This is a huge relief for me as it potentially means not having a conviction on my record and carrying with me the rest of my life.

I was arrested for first time DWI with a high BAC in Collin county, TX. I originally hired a ‘big name’ DWI lawyer in Dallas. After 7 months of working on my case, they were unable to get any time taken off the prosecutors original offer. The prosecutor also refused to take my clean criminal record i...nto account and drop my charge to a class b deferred. So I asked around and heard that Doug was the guy who gets things done in Collin County. I decided that a positive outcome was important enough to eat the retainer fee from my first attorney and ended up hiring Doug and the Wilder Law Firm. Based on Doug’s process and relationship with prosecutors in Collin Co, he was able to get my high BAC charge dropped down to a class B deferred - which the first lawyer I hired said was impossible. The prosecutor even gave me credit for some of the time served with the interlock device, based on Doug’s persistence and strategic thinking. Hiring Doug and The Wilder Firm ended up being the difference between having to take a Class A and deal with a conviction forever, vs a Class B deferred where I now have the opportunity to learn from my mistake and move on with life without a criminal record. Doug and his team delivered for me on a tough case with a lot of obstacles thrown at them throughout the process. Doug could have stopped fighting for me numerous times, and nobody would have faulted him based on the circumstances. He never quit on me, and in the end secured an outcome that surpassed all my expectations.

I had a pending DWI charge. I choose Wilder law Firm based off a referral from a family member. After meeting with Doug, he addressed all of my concerns, fears, and worries in a manner that resonated well with me. His firm was able to make it so my original Class A Misdemeanor DWI that was not eligib...le for deferred adjudication was pled down to a Class B DWI with 12-month probation deferred adjudication. As the result of the work of the Wilder Law Firm did, I will never be convicted of this DWI after finishing my probation. This has impacted my life because I have been suspended without pay from my job since my arrest, and had lost one of my professional licenses, and now I am eligible for review for my license and will receive my professional license back. I truly would recommend Doug to anyone who is in a situation that requires legal representation. He is someone you can relate to you, and truly cares about how all of this affects your life and finding the best solution for you. Doug is truly caring, knowledgeable, and has an amazing office that replies in a timely manner to help you with any questions or concerns you have along the way. I would not have made it through this difficult time in my life without the guidance, support, and help of the Wilder Law Firm, and am forever grateful that I chose this law firm as my representation.

Speak with Doug or his knowledgeable paralegal and any hesitation on the best choice needed to protect your future melts away. Having spoke with numerous 'expert' lawyers in the search for representation, it was clear from the conversation with Doug that he had built his practice on honoring relation...ships, refining his mastery over the meat grinder that is the Dallas criminal court, preparing clients by aligning his best resources, and planning your best course of action. Living in Houston, the scope of Mr. WIlder's network and mutual commitment were invaluable to ensuring the best outcome possible to the terrible situation in which I had found myself. What I thought was a life altering event was chipped away through the continual work by Doug and his team into manageable inconveniences and an unimaginable outcome!

Doug Wilder was able to get a family member out of a DWI by getting the charge significantly reduced and this person never had to go to court. Little did I know that I'd also one day desperately need his services. I was falsely accused of domestic violence while going through a divorce and an ex-...parte order was filed against me without my knowledge. Doug immediately advised me to take a polygraph test and arranged for the two of us to meet with the detective in charge of the case -- on a Sunday when most lawyers can't be bothered. Doug helped me navigate the system and helped prevent me from not only losing custody of my children but also from losing my job. Doug believes in seeking justice and will go the extra mile to fight for his clients. If you find yourself in need of a criminal defense lawyer, look no further than The Wilder Firm. He pisses excellence!
