Look no further for a DWI lawyer!

I was recently facing a DWI charge so I went on a spree of meeting with lawyers all across town and upon meeting her I was convinced she's the best around. She sat me down and explained the entire process from start to finish, what I should expect and took care of everything, within a month's time Fl...orencia got me a deferred prosecution! She's flat out amazing.

Florencia had my case resolved very quickly! She is very knowledgeable and helped explain the process of my case. I spoke to several lawyers before hiring her. I would recommend her to anyone in need!

Best Lawyer in Texas

Florencia Rueda and Duke Hildreth work incredible as a team. I was originally arrested for a DWI, tampering with evidence(felony, I ate my pot), and a POM. Right from the start Florencia was very confident. She told me we would get everything dropped, but probably have to plead guilty to the POM. She... was right. After everything was said and done, my DWI and the tampering charge were both completely dropped and I was put on a 12 months probation. I have some community service and a couple classes to attend, and that's it. Since I was originally arrested for a DWI, my license was suspended for 180 days since I didn't submit to a breath or blood sample. But, since my arrests were dropped to a POM it wasn't a moving violation. If it were a moving violation that I had plead down to I would have had to pay $500 a year for my sr22 insurance I had to get, and $500 for the occupational license. With it not being a moving violation I only had to pay for occupational license(mandatory 180 day suspension on refusal of a breath or blood sample) and only a $80 a year charge for the sr22 insurance. It was a HUGE relief when I found that out. Also, it didn't make my insurance go up. All in all Florencia and Duke were an excellent team and did exactly as I was told from the beginning with superb communication. I thank them tremendously.

Amazing Lawyer!!!

It was pure fate that put me in touch with Florencia. I was charged with assault that would put any lawyer's skills to test. I initially hired a lawyer right out of the advertisements and he was a horrible. All he did was as little as possible and didn't fight for me at all. There are a lot of lawyer...s out there and I feel that they become desensitized and just go through the motions. Not Florencia, I found her by word of mouth and I could not be happier. She took a very complex assault case and was able to have it dismissed. Along the way she tried every avenue to have it looked at by the Prosecutors. When it came down to the Prosecutors asking if this was going to trial Florencia had no problem saying yes. It took a lot work but she is a true fighter and has no problem telling you everything the way it is and not sugar coat anything. She will take your phone calls directly and not let some paralegal / gatekeeper take them. She will fight with everything she has and take every avenue to help your case. She makes you feel like family and tells you to let her do the worrying for you. In the end, my case was dismissed and I know it was a tough one for her. But with her tenacity she fought and was able to have it dismissed. I have never seen a lawyer so connected to their client that it made me, who was very anxious, feel confident. I owe everything to Flo and would not go with any other lawyer except her. If you do not have her representing you then you are making a huge mistake. Thank you Flo!!

Trustworthy and Truthful Attorney

Florencia is a very professional and informative attorney. When I first met with her, she laid out my options and allowed me to make a decision on whether to hire her or not without any pressure. Once I decided to hire Florencia, she quickly got the ball rolling on my case. She filed all the necessa...ry paperwork, motions,etc on time and very quickly. If she needed something from me, she would send a timely reminder when i forgot. Within 2 months of being charged for DWI my case was dismissed!! How quick is that?!! I was given a traffic ticket instead , deferred for 90 days, which is a much better outcome than I ever expected. Hire Florencia Rueda if you want an attorney who will be up front and honest and guide you every step of the way to get the best possible outcome for whatever your situation is.
