Message from Attorney Troy Burleson

Troy Burleson

Hello, my name is Troy Burleson and I am an attorney specializing in DWI defense in the counties of Collin, Dallas and Denton. Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you find the information helpful and informative.

Chances are, if you are visiting my blog you, or someone you love, are facing a criminal charge of DWI. Therefore, I know that this is a frustrating and scary time in your life. I have dedicated my legal career to defending people like you against similar criminal charges. The laws concerning DWI are very strict and the lobbyists who proposed those laws are very powerful. Many cities and municipalities have task forces of officers whose only job is to make arrests for DWI. These task forces (know as “DWI squads” or “Step squads”, i.e.) make thousands of arrests for DWI each month in Collin, Dallas and Denton counties. Because the pressure to enforce and prevent drunk driving is great, many times officers will arrest people with very little probable cause.

This does not mean that an officer is not doing his or her job. Put yourself in their shoes. If an officer has the slightest belief that a person may have had too much to drink, it is his duty to remove that person from the roadways. Then, the court system will decide whether or not the person actually committed a crime. Keep in mind that prosecutors in Collin, Dallas and Denton counties only win about half of the DWI cases that are taken to trial.

You are your loved one may very well have a strong, valid defense to the DWI charge you are facing. I have personally handled thousands of DWI cases in my legal career as a prosecutor and as a criminal defense attorney. Further, I have been trained by one of the best DWI defense attorneys in the state of Texas and arguably in the United States. I have the ability to give you the quality of representation that you deserve.

I am grateful for every day that I get to practice law and defend my clients’ in courts of law. I have a great respect for the advocacy system and work constantly and diligently to better myself and my trial skills to more effectively represent my clients. I would welcome the opportunity to visit with you concerning your current legal issue. Thank you for visiting my blog, I look forward to the opportunity to represent you or your loved one.

Sincerely,

Troy P. Burleson
Attorney at Law
