What should you do when your phone rings in the middle of the night and you learn someone has been arrested for a DWI? This unique CLE program will provide the information you need to handle the late-night phone call and the client interview. This course will help you to understand how to evaluate the State’s evidence (traffic stops, field sobriety tests, breath and blood testing) and will provide necessary information to save the client’s driver’s license (Administrative License Revocation Hearings). The course discussion will also delve into the ethics involved in fee setting, client expectations, criminal investigations and evidence as well as dealings with the State.
