Boating While Intoxicated

Frisco | Lewisville | Denton | Grapevine Lake | Lake Lewisville

In recent years, police and state officials (specifically, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department) have cracked down on alcohol related crimes, including boating while impaired or intoxicated. Everyone likes to go to the lake and party; however, like going to a bar, you should have a designated driver or skipper. State officials often lie in wait for a boat to take off after a party and then arrest the owner or driver for BWI.

Alexander & Associates provides individuals charged with BWI with an aggressive defense. We have offices in Frisco and Lewisville and will tailor a defense to obtain the best possible results under your circumstances. BWI carries the same consequences as DWI. State officials might even impound your boat.

As a former prosecutor, attorney Karen Alexander understands how to detect and exploit weaknesses in the government’s case against you. She uses her prosecutorial background to protect your rights and build a strong defense against BWI charges.

The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Treats BWI like DWI, as Do Texas Courts in Tarrant County, Denton County & Collin County.

During weekends and holidays, lakes such as Lake Lewisville see an increase in parties and celebrations. Texas courts also come down just as heavily on drunk boaters as they do drunk drivers.

If you are convicted of a BWI, you run the risk of having the same penalties imposed as a DWI, including jail time and high fines; therefore, it is imperative that you retain an experienced lawyer who understands BWI and DWI in Texas.
