Testimonials
Valuable Member of Our Legal Team
Our firm utilizes TexasDWIExpert as our "go-to" resource for expert review of field sobriety tests, DWI investigation procedures, and for expert testimony at trial. Our clients benefit immensely and we have achieved extraordinary results because of the assistance of Lisa Martin and her firm. For example, recently, based on part of the assistance we received from TexasDWIExpert, we had a client who was originally arrested for Intoxication Assault. Based on the exemplary work of our team of attorneys and the help of Ms. Martin, we were able to achieve a reduction in charge from that of the original arrested offense to a 12-month probation for Obstruction of a Highway or Other Passageway (a Class B Misdemeanor). We consider Lisa and TexasDWIExpert a valuable member of our team in our quest to attain the best possible results for our clients.

She Has Saved Me Hours of Work
I am happy to tell anyone that wants to listen how helpful and worthwhile Lisa's reports are. She has saved me hours of work plus her detailed discussion will make a cross a cakewalk. I look forward to my next case with her. Thank you again for such a wonderful, detailed, well-explained job.

Highly Recommend!
Lisa did a great job working for us. She was very timely and is very intelligent. She dissected everything the DPS officers did and provided a great report. She learned there were several mistakes the DPS officers made during every SFST that was administered. The result from her report was very favorable for our client. Her report was a big reason that our client's charge was reduced to obstruction. We look forward to working with Lisa in the future on any DWI cases that we take to trial. Highly recommend!

Can't Say Enough Good Things
In the world of DWI expert witnesses, there are those that are academically qualified and those who aren't. Indeed, among those who are qualified, there are those that can communicate, but sadly, most can't. Narrowing the "can" pool, there are even fewer that are both natural and likable. Enter DWI Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) Expert Lisa Martin. As one of only five DWI Specialists in Texas allowed by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization to say we are "Board Certified Experts," I can say that SFST Expert Lisa Martin is amazing. Not only has she taught and explained to me more about those field sobriety tests than I did know, but she has made me a better lawyer and a more effective advocate for my DWI and ALR clients. Lisa is quick to recognize offense report and audio/video recording issues, and she has the talent to credibly teach those reasonable doubts, in lay terms, to a jury — or to use those evidence points in cross-examination. Because she is an excellent writer, her opinion reports can also be offered in ALR cases as impeachment evidence. With the above in mind, I have no hesitation in sharing my opinion that Lisa is an expert's expert, and the best of the best in SFSTs. I highly recommend Lisa as a resource for your DWI defense practice — you want her on your team.

An Outstanding Courtroom Demeanor and Witness
I have had the pleasure of retaining and working with Lisa as an expert on numerous DWI cases. Her expertise in the administration of the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, as well as her ability to relate and explain her findings and the intricacies of this testing to a judge and jury, is beyond comparison. She has an outstanding courtroom demeanor and is an outstanding witness. I have had many cases where her successful testimony during a suppression hearing resulted in suppression of the evidence or ultimate dismissal of the case. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of hiring Lisa, as a defense expert, to explain how the SFST should be administered and the methodology behind this testing. Lisa is extremely thorough, exceptionally knowledgeable, and very punctual in reviewing evidence and getting back to you with her findings. The report she issues in every case is a must-have not only for suppression hearings and trial, but also for ALR hearings. Lisa is outstanding, and a must-hire in any DWI case where your client submitted to the SFSTs.
