If an individual is driving under the influence and causes serious bodily harm to another, the driver can be charged with intoxication assault. Under Texas DWI laws, intoxication assault is a third-degree felony carrying harsh penalties, such as:
- Probation with at least 30 days of incarceration
- 2 to 10 years in prison
- A fine of up to $10,000
- Mandatory driver's license suspension or revocation
- 160 to 600 hours of community service
Due to the seriousness of this criminal offense, the courts are much less likely to be lenient with the offenders. You will need an aggressive and seasoned defense attorney on your side.
