DWI Seminars
Any attorney licensed to practice law in New Jersey may appear in Municipal
Court and represent a defendant charged with DWI. DWI defense, however, is a
specialized area of law requiring special training and knowledge in different
aspects of DWI defense. Therefore, it is essential that lawyers make
themselves as current as possible with issues involving charges of driving
while intoxicated.
One of the best ways to do this is to attend seminars regularly presented
dealing with different topics in DWI defense. These are presented both
locally and around the country.
On January 19, 2006
and January 20, 2006, I attended the National College for DWI
Defense Winter Session in Amelia Island, Florida. The National
College for DWI Defense or "NCDD", is the foremost association of DWI attorneys in the United States and is dedicated to the
advancement of DWI advocacy on behalf of Defendants in DWI
prosecutions. Attendance at these conferences provide opportunities
to discuss new approaches to DWI defense with colleagues from across
the country.
In addition to attending seminars and conferences, we have been
active in presenting DWI seminars across the State of New Jersey.
Our office has presented numerous seminars involving the Alcotest
7110 MK III-C breath test device to Bar Associations around the
State of New Jersey. We also appeared at a conference
of IDRC providers. These individuals provide alcohol counseling
where DWI defendants have been convicted as part of the Intoxicated
Driver Resource Center program required by statute. We have also
taken part in a series of seminars sponsored by the Mercer County
Bar Association involving the recent changes in the Driving While
Intoxicated law. We organized a
three part seminar for New Jersey Institute for Continuing Legal
Education, to assist attorneys with DWI trial skills
involving both trial preparation and trial technique with special
emphasis on the trial issues concerning the Alcotest 7110 MK III-C
breath test machine. These seminars were given at the locations
around the State of New Jersey. In addition, recent seminars have
been presented to the New Jersey State Bar Association Municipal
Court Section concerning recent changes in DWI law and the Middlesex
County Bar Association Municipal Court Committee involving DWI
sentencing issues.
The seminar involved school zone
sentencing, 10-year step down provisions, post-conviction relief
applications made for prior offenses, plea bargaining, appeals, and
dealing with companion criminal complaint matters.
In the fall of this year we will
present a half day seminar given at the meadowlands conference
center on behalf of the American Trial Lawyers Association.
This seminar will involve many important DWI issues.
