Quick answer: We publish our fees: a first DWI is a $5,000 flat fee, a second is $7,000, and a felony DWI is $10,000 — with the ALR hearing and the trial fee included, not billed separately. Interest-free 10-month financing is available, with the first payment due at hiring. In a county known for lean plea offers, the fee buys the defense work that actually moves outcomes.

Flat fees exist because hourly billing punishes defendants for their own defense: every motion, every hearing, every trial day becomes a new invoice. One number, everything included through the listed scope, means decisions about fighting the case are made on the merits — not on what the next hearing costs you.

Measure the fee against what a conviction costs in Williamson County: the fine and court costs, years of insurance surcharges, license consequences, a permanent record that never expunges, and enhancement exposure that makes any future arrest a felony conversation. Defense costs are a one-time number; conviction costs compound for decades. Current fees are always published on our Texas DWI cost page, and the consultation that quotes yours is free, 24/7.

Why do you publish fees when most firms will not?

Because fee anxiety keeps people from calling at the exact moment early action matters most — inside the 15-day ALR window. Published numbers replace fear with a plan.

Do payment plans change the fee?

No. The 10-month financing is interest-free — a first DWI runs $500 per month with the first payment at hiring. The fee in your signed representation agreement is the fee that controls. Prices are subject to change at any time.
