3rd DUI Felony

Douglas Wilder...I can't think of enough words to explain how great an Attorney Doug was for me. I was arrested for my 3rd DUI, and you probably know the consequences that could have resulted. I had used other lawyers for the previous DWIs, all of which told me what I wanted to hear and promised me e...verything. Doug was a straight shooter and handled my case in my best interests. Long story short, I only received probation with NO jail time.

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!

Not guilty

When searching for an attorney after being arrested for DWI charges, Doug was the obvious choice for getting the job done. As his website notes, he is highly qualified to handle these cases and is an expert at what he does. As a result, I was found not guilty. His presentation in court was so impress...ive that the bailiff (someone who sees attorneys all day long in court) asked for his business card afterwards. He and his staff were a pleasure to work with through such a stressful situation. His straight forwardness regarding how he viewed the case was refreshing and very helpful. I would highly recommend him and his firm.

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.

Great trial lawyer!

I hired Doug after meeting with a couple other DUI attorneys in the DFW area. Doug was the only one who made me feel like we could win the charge. I hired him and we ended up in trial. I knew I was likely in good hands when everybody at the court house liked him and knew him. Even the cops were askin...g advice from him. Sure nuff he convinced the jury too. He is very confident and very persuasive. Saved my career.
