Dallas DUI Defense Lawyer

Fort Worth Minor Consumption Attorney

Texas is a zero-tolerance state for underage drinking. This means that if a person under the age of 21 is found to have any amount of alcohol in their blood stream, he or she can be charged with DUI (driving under the influence — even if not intoxicated) or DWI (driving while intoxicated).

It is a myth that a conviction for "minor in possession of alcohol" will disappear from your criminal record when you turn 21. That conviction will remain part of your driving record and your criminal record unless you actively fight after a deferred adjudication to get it sealed from public view. If you are later charged with drunk driving as an adult, that prior conviction could mean that you face the additional penalties reserved for repeat drunk driving offenders.

At Crain ◊ Lewis, LLP, we provide serious legal defense for minors who are charged with alcohol-related mistakes. Our attorneys fight aggressively to defend the minor against the charges and to have the record sealed from public view as an adult. We are ready to help.
