It is time for NCDAA’s popular DWI Defense program. The seminar features two national DWI defense experts as well as Nebraska’s most talented and experienced DWI attorneys. As the penalties for DWI become increasingly draconian, it becomes even more important that counsel be well prepared and up-to-date on the latest procedures, legislation, caselaw and rules, in order to provide the best possible defense for their clients.

Attorney Charles L. Sifers joins us from Oklahoma City. He is a highly experienced DWI defense attorney who has been a Regent of the National College for DUI Defense, is certified on the Intoxilyzer 5000 and is a certified trainer for field sobriety testing.

Forensic Toxicologist and Physiologist Dr. Wanda Marley is based in Fort Collins. However, she works across the county lecturing, teaching and consulting on issues relating to breath alcohol testing, absorption spectrometry, toxicology of ethanol and gastric reflux disease. Her knowledge of the field is unsurpassed and she will provide many new insights.

Nebraska has its own very experienced and talented DWI defense attorneys. Some of the best and brightest will be presenting at this program. Updates on caselaw, legislation and regulations will be provided by Matt Kosmicki of Lincoln, Jeff Kirkpatrick of Lincoln, and Pete Blakeslee of Lincoln. They will discuss recent developments and give you tips on how to use these tools. Mark Rappl of Lincoln will talk about collateral consequences of DWI convictions. There are many and the numbers are growing. John Ball of Lincoln will address the special issues surrounding aggravated DWI charges and how to deal with them effectively. Interlock providers will explain how best to use their services.

At the end of the day, four of the most experienced DWI defense attorneys in the state will share their insights, take audience questions and discuss various issues as a panel. Dave Jorgensen of Kearney will join seminar chairs Bell Island of Scottsbluff, Russ Jones of North Platte and Brad Roth of Lincoln in what promises to be a lively discussion and an excellent way to bring together the information presented during the day.
