DWI? Hire him now and you’ll never regret your decision.

Let’s start with the short version: •I was stopped by police in the early morning hours on a Saturday and arrested in Harris County for a first-offense DWI. •I hired Mr. Ruiz on Wednesday morning ahead of a Friday court hearing. •On Friday morning, Mr. Ruiz walked into the courtroom and used... his extensive knowledge of DWI law, resulting in my case being DISMISSED!! Bottom line: In 3 days, he had my case dismissed! More detail: Mr Ruiz is experienced—18 years of specializing in criminal defense and DWI law; his fees are very reasonable for his caliber—you won’t find a tried-and-true superstar lawyer at his rates in Harris or surrounding counties; he is a true professional who understands his clients’ stress and aims to communicate with you as needed. If you’ve never needed a lawyer of any kind before, you should know that there are lawyers who are in it for financial gain, but have little to no heart invested in what they do; that’s not Joseph Ruiz. He loves what he does, and he cares about his client’s lives and future. Hire him. You won’t regret it!

Highly recommend Joseph Ruiz

I was arrested and charged with my 1st (and last!) DWI earlier this year. I researched and consulted with several reputable attorneys and ultimately hired Joseph Ruiz due to his extensive experience, assured demeanor, and concise communication. I've been racked with fear and trepidation regarding the... outcome of my case and its impact on my record and career. Mr. Ruiz kept me informed throughout the whole process and was able to negotiate a deferred adjudication on a charge of obstruction of a public highway rather than a DWI. I’m pleased with the outcome of my case and highly recommend Mr. Ruiz for others who may be facing their own dark night of the soul.

Best Lawyer to fight for you

Mr. Ruiz managed my DUI case and got it dismissed like a champ!!! When I got pulled over and was subjected to the procedure, it built a lot of nervousness, anxiety and fear. I talked to a few law firms and found Mr. Ruiz as extremely knowledgeable and best in class. Mr. Ruiz walked me through the cas...e with his approach and got me comfortable. He was responsive 100 % of the time when I texted or called. He was very professional in the dealings and kept me in the loop on progress of my case. I would highly recommend Mr. Joseph Ruiz to fight for you.
