Multiple DWI Protecting & Defending the Rights of the Accused

Multiple DUI Attorney in Bryan

Board Certified Defense from a Former Brazos County Prosecutor

A second DUI or multiple DWI charges put your freedom, your license, and your future at real risk. At The Law Office of Jay Granberry, our defense is led by Jay Granberry, who served as an Assistant District Attorney in Brazos County and now uses that prosecution-side experience to defend clients in the same courts. He’s Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and has tried well over 130 jury trials. When repeat DWI charges carry steeper penalties and more aggressive prosecution, that combination of local knowledge and courtroom experience can give you a concrete advantage.

Repeat offenses bring enhanced penalties, stricter scrutiny from Brazos County prosecutors, and collateral impacts on your career, driving privileges, and reputation. Having a multiple DUI lawyer who knows local court culture, prosecution tendencies, and administrative procedures isn’t just helpful. It can mean a defense built for your specific situation rather than one built for any case in any court. We give you direct answers, careful preparation, and the kind of personal attention that keeps you informed at every step.

If you’re facing a 2nd DUI or multiple DWI charges in Bryan, don’t wait. Call (979) 378-5480 now to speak with our defense team and protect your options before deadlines pass.

The Value of Hiring an Experienced Multiple DUI Attorney

Each repeat DUI charge in Brazos County carries more severe consequences than a first offense: mandatory jail time, license suspension, steeper fines, and long-term impacts on your driving privileges and employment. Our defense is built around the details of your arrest, the evidence, and your personal situation. We draw on firsthand knowledge of local procedures and prosecution strategies to build a defense that’s thorough and specific to Bryan.

We analyze every piece of available evidence, from police reports and field sobriety test results to bodycam footage and breath or blood test records. We investigate whether your stop and search were lawful, whether testing equipment was properly calibrated, and whether officers followed local protocols. Procedural errors in any of those areas can be grounds for suppression or dismissal. We also work with community resources, including education providers and substance abuse counselors, to pursue alternatives where the facts support them. Our familiarity with programs and personnel in Brazos County can give you a practical edge in negotiations and, when necessary, at trial.

What to Expect When You Hire Us

Second and subsequent DWI charges in Texas are prosecuted aggressively, particularly in Brazos County. A second offense typically carries mandatory jail time ranging from 30 days to one year, fines up to $4,000, a possible two-year license suspension, and an ignition interlock requirement. For anyone who relies on driving for work or school in Bryan, that exposure demands immediate action. Both the criminal case and the administrative process, including the Texas Department of Public Safety’s ALR hearing, can move quickly after an arrest.

Here’s how we help:

  • Protect your driving privileges. Requesting and preparing for your Administrative License Revocation (ALR) hearing so you don’t lose your license by default.
  • Investigate arrest procedures. Challenging police mistakes, rights violations, or problems with breath or blood test protocols common in Bryan-area DWI stops.
  • Identify alternatives to harsh sentencing. Seeking eligibility for probation programs or other alternatives, tailored to your situation and the local options available.
  • Prepare for trial or negotiation. Drawing on our courtroom experience to build a compelling argument before a judge, jury, or prosecutor.

Courts in Bryan apply greater scrutiny to repeat offenses, so your defense needs to be both thorough and proactive. We work with a network of local professionals, including substance abuse counselors, ignition interlock providers, and educational program administrators, to support your compliance and document your efforts to make changes. That information can influence how judges and prosecutors view your case. Our team handles coordination with agencies, bond conditions, and communications with county staff so you aren’t navigating those requirements alone.

  • Direct communication. We keep you informed at every step so you always know where your case stands and what comes next.
