I am one of the few Austin DWI attorneys that has seen multiple sides of the law. I have been a peace officer, a prosecutor and now I am a criminal defense attorney. This background is unique to that of many other central Texas attorneys.
If you hire me to represent you, I will strive to obtain the best possible outcome in your case, and I understand not only the legal side of the case against you but also what may be working against you from a political point of view, having been in both law enforcement and a prosecuting attorney.
I work on all criminal cases involving Texas law, both felonies and misdemeanors. Specifically, some of my services include Austin DWI defense, drug cases, theft or shoplifting, assaults, burglaries, and even some family law, including but not limited to divorce and child custody or child support issues. I also provide an attorney jail release service for those who are arrested and retain me as their lawyer to represent them in that matter. Read more about these topics in the tabs below and on the pages contained in this site.

This web site is designed to provide you with information to assist in deciding whether Dax Garvin is the most qualified attorney for the needs facing you by providing information about Mr. Garvin's legal practice and the services he offers.
Dax I. Garvin has been a licensed Texas attorney since 2002, which is the year that he first moved to Travis County, Texas. Dax focuses not only on knowing the current Texas law, but he dedicates himself to understanding each client's personal situation because he understands that it is not only the facts that are important but the background circumstances of each case and every person involved that affect the outcome of a client's matter.
Mr. Garvin served as a peace officer in central Texas, wearing a uniform, patrolling his district, and enforcing the law for over two and a half years. During this time, Dax learned how many officers think and why they respond to situations the way that they do. This knowledge and experience sets Dax apart from many other lawyers, that have never worked in law enforcement. Mr. Garvin also worked for clients whose insurance companies were involved and defended them in matters ranging from minor automobile collisions to cases that involved the death of another person, so he knows and appreciates the procedures and complexities of civil litigation. Mr. Garvin began his legal career in 2002 with the Travis County Attorney's Office, where he served as a misdemeanor prosecutor, interacting with law enforcement officers, crime victims, defense attorneys, and countless other parties that had an interest in the outcome of the case he was working on at that time. It was in this role that Dax learned to recognize the very essence of a State's case, understanding not only the elements that the State must prove to convict but the other forces that explain why a case is filed, prosecuted, and tried.
Every cause needs its advocate: one daring, fearless and willing to fight. If you find yourself needing someone to fight for your cause, you need the help of an experienced trial attorney who can guide you through the challenges ahead. Don't let an arrest become a conviction or an ex-spouse take your children because you did not hire a strong advocate. Dax will strive to balance the scales of justice in your favor.
