Since 1998, our El Paso criminal defense attorney has helped tens of thousands of clients obtain the outcomes they desired. Our legal team is confident that we can obtain yours.

Penalties for Intoxication Assault

According to Texas Penal Code Section 49.07, a person is guilty of intoxication assault when they cause serious bodily injury to another individual as a result of intoxication. Serious bodily injury is defined by Texas law as any personal injury which causes a protracted impairment or loss of the function of any organ or bodily member, or creates a significant risk of fatality. DWI with serious bodily injury is a third degree felony, which is punishable by a prison sentence between two and ten years and a fine of up to $10,000.
