Consulting Expert or Testifying Expert

Consulting Expert – Reviewing a DUI Case as a Consulting Expert, I review all arrest reports, alcohol influence reports, towing/impounding reports, medical reports, breathalyzer logs and all videos and then I consult with the attorney reference my findings. I look at the videos and reports with a different set of eyes, not that of a lawyer bur rather as a Standardized Field Sobriety Testing Instructor and Breathalyzer Operator. I look for “errors and omissions” in the proper protocol of the standardized field sobriety tests, breathalyzer testing, blood and urine collection. Then I consult with the attorney on my findings.

Testifying Expert – Reviewing a DUI case in which I would be an expert Witness, I review all the same documents and videos that I see as a consultant but I also create a report on my findings that is given to the attorney and opposing counsel, The report relates my findings and includes my expert opinion of the case. My Expert witness testimony would be based on my findings as well as explaining to the judge and or jury the proper protocol and procedures of the NHTSA Standards, DUI Detection Blood and Urine collection,, Breathalyzer Operator, Breathalyzer Machine Operations and Testing.
