To be charged with a DUI in Brazoria County Texas is a incredibly serious matter which can result in jail time, fines, loss of driving privileges and more. DWI Attorney in Angleton Texas Andy Nolen has more than 20 years practical experience assisting people charged with Driving While Intoxicated or DUI. Attorney Andy Nolen has had in excess of 3000 clients and had in excess of 400 cases dismissed. A lot of of those dismissals have been DWIs. If you have been charged with DWI, there are a few things you should know:

8 Important things You Must Know About a DWI in Brazoria County Texas:

1. A 1st DWI in has a maximum jail sentence of 6 months up to a $2000 fine. A 2nd DWI caries a maximum 1 year jail sentence and a $4000 fine. A 3rd DWI is a felony and carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

2. All DWI's can result in loss of your drivers license and limitations on your ability to drive. The judge may require that you fit a breath device on your vehicle that calculates any alcohol in your system before you can start your car.

3. You may be required to wear a SCRAM monitor. That stands for Secure Remote Alcohol Monitor. It is a gadget that you wear on your ankle that measures alcohol in you system. These devices require a deposit and up to $10 a day in supervising fees. Harris County Attorney Andy Nolen has successfully fought to have his clients NOT wear the device and have the device taken off.

4. Your license can be suspended in 2 ways. First, by an Administrative License Revocation or ALR. This is typically where you either refused to blow in an intoxilyzer or blew over the legal limit. The second is by being convicted of a DWI. Your license can be suspended more than once for the same DWI. Brazoria County DWI Attorney Andy Nolen can help you with both types of suspensions.

5. You cannot get deferred adjudication for a DWI and any conviction for DWI is on your record for life.

6. Any statements you make to a police officer during a DWI stop and arrest will be used against you. You should never admit drinking or even driving for that matter. It is best to say little or nothing.

7. The police can secure a court order and take blood from you to be analyzed for alcohol.

8. A DWI can significantly increase your insurance expenses.

Angleton Texas DWI Attorney Andy Nolen can help walk you through the minefield of DWI laws in Texas. DWI is not something that you can contend with yourself.

Brazoria County Theft Lawyer | Angleton Texas Fraud Defense

Brazoria County Theft Lawyer
Brazoria County Theft Lawyer Andy Nolen has 20 years experience helping people charged with misdemeanor or felony theft, theft by check, employee theft and theft by receiving.   If you have been charged with theft be aware of the following:

1.  Theft is considered a crime of moral turpitude.  It is a legal term of art which has no statutory definition but courts have ruled that theft IS a crime of moral turpitude.

Conviction of a crime of moral turpitude can be used against a witness for 10 years after conviction or release from confinement (whichever is later) in any proceeding to discredit their testimony. This means that if you are convicted of, for example,  misdemeanor theft, the conviction can be used against you in a completely unrelated case like a divorce or custody hearing, for the next 10 years to discredit your testimony by showing that you are a dishonest person.

Federal statutes use the term "Crimes Involving Moral Turpitude" to indicate crimes which can can cause a non-citizen resident alien to become eligible for deportation. The Federal statutes don't give a list of these crimes, but it appears to mean the same types of crimes as the State. If you are a non-citizen resident alien and you have been charged with an offense which may be considered a crime of moral turpitude a conviction could result in denial of admission to the country.

2.  A theft conviction is on your record for life.  Many people think a conviction is on your record in the same way as a bad credit report.  They are wrong.

3.  If you get deferred adjudication, the theft offense still shows up on your record...for life.  You need to follow up a successful deferred adjudication with a Petition for Nondisclosure.  A Petition for Nondisclosure makes your record hidden from the public.  Law enforcement can still see it.

4.  If you were an employee and you stole from your employer, the District Attorney will usually not offer Deferred Adjudication and you may have to argue your case before the judge.

5.  Brazoria County Theft Lawyer Andy Nolen has noticed that many people want to "get the case over as quickly as possible".  If your convicted, your case will never end, it will be on your record for life and you will be discussing it at every job interview you have from now on.

Brazoria County Theft Lawyer Andy Nolen has 20 years experience, has had over 3000 clients, and has had 500+ cases dismissed.  If you have been charged with any kind of theft case, please call Brazoria County Theft Lawyer Andy Nolen at 832-480-8951 for a free consultation.

Don't Be Revoked on a Probation Violation in Brazoria County, Angleton Probation Attorney Andy Nolen Can Help

Angleton Probation Attorney
Add caption
Facing a Motion to Revoke Probation or a Motion to Adjudicate Guilt is a very serious matter requiring a good Angleton Probation Violation Attorney.

6 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW:

1.  A Motion to Revoke Probation is what is filed when you are on straight or regular probation.

2.  A Motion to Adjudicate Guilt is what is filed when you are on Deferred Adjudication.

3.  These documents are prepared by the probation department and signed by the judge.  These motions list the terms of your probation and the ways in which you violated them.   Once signed, a warrant issues for you arrest.  You may or may not have a bond set at this time.  You may have to first go thru the jail then appear in court to request a bond.  Before you even get to court the first time, the
Judge, the DA and the Probation Officer have already agreed that you violated your probation.  You better be prepared when you walk in the door!!!

4.  The purpose is for you to appear before the judge so that he or she can make a decision to either, keep you on probation, modify your probation, or revoke your probation.  If revoked, you are subject to being jailed.

5.  Hopefully, an agreement with the prosecutor, probation officer and or judge can be reached whereby you stay on probation.  Alternatively, the judge may make you an offer.  If you decide that you do not like that offer, you can have a hearing and present evidence, witnesses, and explanations to the judge.  Remember, your hearing is before the same judge that made you an offer you didn't like.  Because of that dynamic, you should prepare evidence and witnesses that have not already been presented to the judge in the attempt to change the judges opinion.

6.  When your case began you had the right to a trial by jury who would have faced the burden of beyond a reasonable doubt.  Now, your hearing is before the judge only and the evidence standard is preponderance of evidence.  In other words, its much easier to be revoked than it is to be found guilty at trial.

Angleton Probation Violation Attorney Andy Nolen has practiced law in Brazoria County and elsewhere in Texas for 20 years.  He has fought for over 3000 clients and had hundreds of cases dismissed. Andy Nolen handles Motions to Revoke Probation on a regular basis and has successfully kept many people from going to jail.

Negotiating with the court, preparing clients to testify in court, assembling evidence and fighting your case at a hearing are some of the ways Andy Nolen will help you. Angleton Probation Attorney Andy Nolen can access your case online and discuss your particular situation.  Call now for a free consultation at 832-480-8951

Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen is Ready for the Next Case

Liberty County Criminal Attorney

 Liberty County Criminal Attorney

The United States in engaged in a War on Drugs or even more properly described as a war on persons who do drugs and Texas is leading the charge. In the event you have been charged with possession of drugs or manufacturing of a controlled substance, or intent to supply, there are some things Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen thinks you should fully understand:

1. A drug conviction in Texas will result in the loss of your driver's license. That will then add surcharges and reinstatement fees and penalties that can run about $1000. You will additionally have to take the Drug Offender Education Program (D.O.E.P.).

This class is for men and women who have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony drug offense. This class will fulfill the obligation for education because of a suspended driver’s license. The standardized program is 15 hours in size taught in three-hour segments.

2. A conviction for drugs can result in your losing eligibility for particular types of federal financial aid for education. Quite a few schools may expel you in the event that the drug offense was committed on school premises. So not only can you lose your driver's license, you may also lose your diploma or degree.

3. In cases where you have been charged with a drug crime, it is almost a certainty that you will be tested for drugs eventually. That may be despite the fact that your on bond and even the initial time you go to the courtroom. Marijuana can continue to be in your system for up to 6 weeks. Items manufactured to defeat the system do not work, so do not really rely on them. Don’t do drugs of any variety while on bond or you risk having to deal with your bond revoked and going to jail. Likewise, you now appear to be an active drug user to the courtroom making your case considerably more difficult.

4. Drug residue including incredibly small amounts in a water pipe or plastic bag is a felony if it is a controlled drug. Marijuana must be a usable amount to be a crime.

5. The most typical ways drug cases are defeated are either that there was an Illegal Search and Seizure or that there was lack of Affirmative Links concerning a defendant and the drugs. If the search was bad, the evidence can be suppressed. Affirmative Links arguments are scenarios such as when there are Four people in a car and the state cannot prove the drugs belonged to any particular person. Generally known as, it was the other guy not me.

Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen has used both of these tactics to have felony and misdemeanor drug cases dismissed.

6. The State must also demonstrate that the drugs were in actual fact drugs. Requiring that the “drugs” in question were in reality drugs can oftentimes get a case dismissed.

Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen recently had a felony possession of a controlled substances charge dismissed subsequent to requiring the state to analyze the “x pill”. Turned out, it wasn’t ecstasy at all and the case was dismissed. The happy client had a very depressed brother who was also charged with the exact same thing but got a court appointed lawyer who plead him guilty and he is now on Four years felony probation for nothing at all! If he violates his probation, they won’t reassess the evidence they will revoke him and incarcerate him.

Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen has practiced law for 20 years and has represented over 3000 clients and had hundreds of cases dismissed. He has successfully helped people with all types of drug cases from possession of drug paraphernalia to multi kilo cocaine cases. Please call Liberty County Criminal Attorney Andy Nolen to discuss your case for free at 832-480-8951.

Waller County Domestic Assault Attorney Knows that Sometimes People in Love Fight

Hempstead Assault Attorney and a Waller County Domestic Violence Lawyer
Andy Nolen has over 20 Years Experience as a Hempstead Assault Attorney and a Waller County Domestic Violence Lawyer.  In the course of representing over 3000 clients and having many hundreds of cases dismissed, Attorney Andy Nolen has compiled a list of things you should know about assault and domestic assault cases.

1.  The State (District Attorney) will make a R.I.P. call on your case.  That stands for: restitution, injury, and punishment.  The state is required by their policy to call the victim (complaining witness) and ask about those 3 items.  What they say will have a bearing on the outcome of your case.  In domestic assault cases in particular, the state is looking not only to establish the extent of any injuries, but to establish that an assault did in fact occur.

2.  911 calls.  If 911 was called, the state will likely subpoena those records.  After tempers have cooled, often times the victim of an assault may ask that the case be dismissed.  The state will use the 911 call to determine the seriousness of the situation and the demeanor of the person calling.  Often, whats in the background is crucial.  For instance, if the person charged is screaming, threatening, or breaking things, that evidence can be presented in court.

3.  Medical records.  If the victim of an assault received medical attention, those record can be subpoenaed by the state.  If the charge is 2 men, not family, are fighting, that's one thing.  However, if the victim was a woman or family member, the state will be looking to establish an assault did in fact occur.  Statements by family after the fact that they want the case dismissed will likely fall on deaf ears.

4.  Family Criminal Law Division.  Assault cases involving family may be referred to that division in the District Attorney's Office.  Those prosecutors specialize in domestic violence.  A family member assaulted may be asked to go to that office for an in depth interview.  At that time, they will take a statement, evaluate the situation, and offer advice on domestic assault and community programs that may help.

5.  A first time Assault is a class A misdemeanor carrying up to a $4000 fine and a year in jail.  If the court makes an affirmative finding of domestic violence.  A second assault is a 3rd degree felony carrying up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.  A domestic assault involving choking is a 3rd degree felony the first time it occurs.

Hempstead Assault Attorney and  Waller County Domestic Violence Lawyer

These cases are taken very seriously by the District Attorney's Office.  Many people believe they will be treated like a small incident or that once a family member announces they want the case dismissed it's all over.  Those people are wrong.  Hempstead Assault Attorney Andy Nolen has represented over 3000 people and had many assault and domestic assault cases dismissed by aggressively collecting evidence, witnesses and statements.  Attorney Andy Nolen has also won cases by setting them for trial and trying them.  If you have been charged with any type of assault case, please call Hempstead Assault Attorney Andy Nolen at 832-480-8951 for a free consultation.
