Laredo DWI & DUI Attorney
Drunk Driving Defense for Clients in Webb County and the Surrounding Areas
Getting arrested for a DWI or DUI can be terrifying. Many people think it could never happen to them. The truth is, sometimes good people find themselves in bad situations. You might not feel drunk but still be stopped by police. The pressure can quickly build up, leaving you scared and unsure about what comes next.
At Altgelt Law Office, P.C., we're ready to look into every angle of your arrest. We will assess whether the police had the right to stop you and if they had enough evidence to charge you. You could hire someone cheaper or less experienced to simply push a plea deal, but that’s not our approach. If you want to challenge the authorities and make them prove their case against you, our Laredo DWI lawyers can help. We will fight for you and bring our skills to the table.

How Our Laredo DUI Attorneys Can Defend You Against Charges
At Altgelt Law Office, P.C., our attorney's experience as a former prosecutor gives us an edge. He's spent years on the other side of the courtroom, learning the ins and outs of how cases are built and presented. This knowledge informs our approach as we prepare each case like we are heading to trial, leaving no stone unturned.
Here are some possible defenses we can bring to your case:
- Improper stop: If the police did not have a valid reason to stop you, we can argue that any evidence obtained during the stop should not be used against you. This is vital for the protection of your rights.
- Inaccurate testing: Breathalyzer and blood tests sometimes yield faulty results. We scrutinize these tests to check for errors or improper procedures that could help challenge the accuracy of the results.
- Lack of intoxication: Just because you were stopped does not mean you were legally intoxicated. We will gather evidence, including witness statements and your own testimony, to show that your ability to drive was not impaired.
- Manner of driving: If you were driving safely and responsibly, it could undermine the officer's claim of impairment. We can present evidence of your driving behavior leading up to the stop.
- Rising BAC defense: If your blood alcohol concentration was rising after you stopped driving but was below the legal limit at the time of operation, we can argue this point to create reasonable doubt.
- Faulty equipment: If the device used to test your intoxication was not properly calibrated or maintained, we can challenge the reliability of the results obtained.
The burden of proof is on the prosecution. They must prove their case against you beyond a reasonable doubt. We understand what strategies work and what doesn't, which allows us to challenge the prosecution effectively and protect your rights.

"Fought for the truth"I wholeheartedly recommend my friend, brother, and attorney, George Altgelt, and his outstanding team. From the beginning, they treated me like family and gave me the support and reassurance I needed during the hardest time of my life. After my weapon discharged during a struggle while I was being attacked on duty, and someone tragically lost their life, George stood by me without hesitation. He worked tirelessly, examined every detail, and fought for the truth. Ultimately, my case was dismissed. I will forever be grateful that God placed George in my path when I needed him most. He truly goes above and beyond — not just as a lawyer, but as someone who genuinely cares. Without hesitation, I highly recommend George Altgelt and his team. Thank you, my great friend.
