1st Offense DWI - Harris County

My case involved a car accident and a blood draw with a BAC over .15 after refusing to submit to both breath and blood. Thankfully, no other vehicle was involved, and no one was hurt. Tyler Flood, being the confident and excellent litigator that he is, took my case to trial after us being denied Pre-...Trial Diversion, and had my case dismissed after being in trial for maybe 3 hours total over 2 days. Tyler Motioned to Suppress on grounds of an unreasonably lengthy detention period where no DWI investigation occurred or was even in the works. Tyler had a convincing argument for the judge who eventually granted the motion. Thus, all evidence (video, blood draw, SFSTs, etc) collected at or after the incident could not be used against me. The State decided to dismiss the case 5 minutes after the Motion to Suppress was granted since it became self-evident that they could not meet the burden of proof. I am forever grateful to Tyler Flood. He saves the lives of good and innocent people by protecting our rights in a system that gets harsher and more unfair everyday. One thing I will add is that Tyler's trial law skills are unlike anybody I have ever seen, heard or even read about. He is phenomenal in the courtroom, and I wholeheartedly recommend Tyler to anybody who finds themselves in an unforgiving situation due to unjust protocol. Thank you so much, Tyler. You gave me my life back!

Definitely Houston's top DWI defense attorney!

I was charged with a DWI on August 24, 2012. I had no idea what to do or how to handle this and most importantly who to hire. I found Tyler Flood through Google results of the best DWI attorneys in Houston. I am very glad I hired him. He was well worth the money. From the beginning Tyler and his firm... were extremely confident in handling my case and making this process a lot smoother and easier to deal with and handle. It was a lengthy process but a dismissal was granted just last week on my case. I am so glad it is over and more importantly very thankful for the support from Tyler. When witnessing him in the court room I knew I had made the best decision. If you are reading this and uncertain of who to hire this should be your last stop. Other attorneys make undeliverable promises but Tyler delivers honest results. Thank you Tyler and Matt and the rest of the firm. You have brought back the normalcy to my life.

So thankful for Tyler flood and his legal team

Without a doubt, getting a dwi was the most stressful scary time of my life. I got pulled over back in October for running a red light. I'm a 25 year old single mother who had a night out which I don't get often to take a friend out for her birthday. After blowing a .08 and spending hours in jail, I ...did my research and stumbled across Tyler floods website. His was the first name to pop up after my google search. I met with him and Matt and they were both very confident that I had a strong case. Six months later I got a call from Tyler that he got my case completely dismissed without having to even take it to trial. I am SO thankful for Tyler and the rest of his legal team!! The cost to hire him is well with it!

Without Question!!! DWI is a very serious offense & Tyler Flood needs to be your first and last call

Without doubt, being charged with a DWI was the most stressful and serious event in my life. On top of the normal trials and tribulations I deal with every day, I now had raised my stress level and the stress level on those items by at least 1000%. DWI is a very serious offense and if you didn't kn...ow that please look into what you can expect if you ever choose to drink and drive. I was dealing with a ton of stresses in my life and it never crossed my mind I should not start my car when I got into my car one night in Houston. When I realized I should not be driving, I pulled off the road to gather myself and determine a plan to get home. Unfortunately, an officer stopped a while later to check on me. I refused to blow and I tried my best to stall the officer as I didn't know what my rights were nor what to do. I was arrested for DWI. Then the officer got a warrant to take my blood which they did. I went to jail and that was an experience I never ever want to repeat. When I was released, I knew I needed to get representation as I had no idea as to how to handle this nightmare. I called a number of lawyers and talked to a few of them. When I called Tyler's office, I spoke to Matt - another Trial Lawyer. That was a call I will never forget. Matt calmed me down as much as I would let myself do so. I hired Tyler Flood the next day. During my case, I worked with Matt, James, Andrea and Tyler. This team is consistent in their messaging which shows they know what they are doing. They don't promise anything but to explore all options for you and represent you with their vast experience in this area - and they have a lot to offer! Tyler has the reputation of being thorough and the knowledge to challenge the prosecution. I learned that all cases are complex for both the prosecution and the defense team. This allows the defense team to help you. Tyler and his team want to help you as they know that good people sometimes take missteps (knowingly or unknowingly) and you shouldn't have to pay for it for the rest of your life. Frankly, having charges dropped is difficult or even down-graded. Matt and James supported me in court and listened to my concerns and answered my questions as best they could. Tyler met with me a few times to explain his approach and recommendations and did a lot of the research needed to evaluate all possible defense options. I cannot say enough about Tyler or his team. Tyler and his team really know their stuff and were able to give me a second chance to do the right thing - my case was dismissed. I will not hesitate to recommend Tyler Flood & Associates. The gravity of being convicted of a charge should not be given to just anybody or any firm. Hire Tyler Flood & Associates to make sure that all of your options are explored for the best defense possible. I cannot speak for other lawyers in this field but I can say that Tyler and his team will do everything they can to help you. Please just do not drink and drive. You really have too much to lose and you also do not want to hurt somebody else. Please stay put, call family or a friend or a taxi. YOU REALLY CANNOT AFFORD NOT TO!!! Be safe.
