This book has been a work in progress for over 9 years now. Now on our 3rd Edition, it still amazes me how often the same questions arise from client to client, and from case to case, and how, until this book, no one had taken the time to explain the DUI justice system in a way that a layperson can understand. All too often lawyers tend to speak in legal language, effectively shutting out regular persons from fully understanding the legal complexities of their cases. Even at court, a most troubling and stressful time, the system seems bent on proceeding with such confusing rules that even some attorneys have trouble deciphering them.

Into this morass of confusion walks the DUI defendant. This is usually their first, and only, brush with the justice system. The complicated concepts of science and evidence further wreck havoc on the accused, oftentimes imparting a feeling of hopelessness. The purpose of this book is to provide a resource for persons accused of DUI or DWI in Connecticut, and to help clear the fog of the justice system.
