DFW's best DWI defense lawyer

Doug Wilder may be one of the best DWI defense lawyer in the DFW area. I have never committed a serious offense until I was charged with a DWI. I had no idea what to expect or where to begin to fight it. As I was going through the process of choosing a lawyer, out of the many I met with, Doug was the... most down to earth and sincere lawyer I met. I could tell right away, that he truly cared about my future and was willing to go the extra mile to ensure that I would not get convicted. All the cards were stacked against me to get convicted because I made the mistake of taking the breathalyzer test and giving the prosecutors solid evidence to use against me. However, thank's to Doug's due diligence and his amazing support staff, Doug was able to reduce my charge. I know that my life would not be the same without his help and I highly recommend Doug to anyone that is trying to fight their DWI.

A Lawyer for the busy Professionals

As a very busy career oriented professional I was very concerned about the impact my 1st and ONLY DWI would have on my schedule, finances and of course public record. After interviewing 5 attorneys in DFW I met Doug. Doug was very honest and up-front about the process, cost and expectations relative ...to the DWI. While the case was open for just under 2 years Doug was able to guide me and explain why the process was lengthy and it's impact on my case. My specific case was difficult for Doug because of my self incriminating video from the night of the incident. Because of the sensitivity of the evidence my case was all but lost and expected to go through an extrenuous probation/fine scenario. I was determined to stay positive and patient during the process. Doug's support staff were extremely helpful in setting the right expectation during the almost 2 yrs. Recently, Doug was able to get a plea for obstruction of a passageway with no supervised probation and deferred for 1 year with a $750 fine to the courts. You get what you pay for! Spare no expense on your attorney when you are up against your DWI. I am extremely grateful to Doug and his staff as my life with a DWI is more bearable when you don't have to report to probation and you get through the charges of a DWI in Texas for under $4K. I hear of first offenders spending upwards of $10-12K. Look no further. Doug is the best in DFW!

Tremendous lawyer, Excellent results.

I had a DWI 2nd case that lasted longer than I would have liked. Doug made the entire process for me so much better. His professionalism, dedication, drive and knoweldge got the result that was needed in a jury trial... "NOT GUILTY". Doug has the know-how, the commitment and the resources to get yo...u where you need to be. His supporting staff made this process much easier for me as well. I am in a much better place having worked with him.

My Lawyer and my friend

I met with two of the supposed "best lawyers" in the DFW area. They all told me that my case was not going to be winnable. They told me that I needed to take whatever I was offered and hope for the best. I was referred to Doug, went and met him and immediately began to have hope. Doug is straight... forward, no BS, highly competative individual. He is also a really cool guy. Doug got me the outcome that I had hoped for and became a friend of mine.

Professional, Straight Forward and Caring

Doug was recommended to me by a good friend and helped me through the most stressful time of my life. Doug is personable and his professionalism, knowledge and honesty were greatly appreciated. He was very candid about the options and was responsive and gave great advice during my whole trial proces...s. In addition his assistants, were very helpful, organized and informative and every inquiry was returned promptly. I highly recommend him to anyone facing DWI charges who wants a real professional to handle any matter delicate or otherwise with a very positive outcome.
