Michigan Drunk Driving Books

Attorney Patrick Barone is well-known throughout the DUI defense community. As a teacher, lecturer, and author, he shares his knowledge of drunk-driving defense to help his peers become successful in their own practice. Mr. Barone is the co-author of two highly-regarded books on the topic of DUI defense—Defending Drinking Drivers and the Michigan Edition of The DUI Book.

John A. Tarantino—one of the top attorneys in the field—authored Defending Drinking Drivers twenty years ago. This two-volume set was written for attorneys who want to understand the DUI defense process. Since Mr. Barone was chosen as the new author in 2006, he has introduced new insight into this comprehensive legal manual. Defending Drinking Drivers covers everything from proven defense strategies and tips to the most current case law.

Understanding the scientific components of a DUI is extremely important. Defending Drinking Drivers covers current chemical testing procedures in detail as well as the weaknesses of each method. This book also provides valuable tools that allow defense attorneys to challenge the scientific validity of the tests, move for the dismissal of the test results, and dispute field sobriety tests.

Defending Drinking Drivers provides crucial trial preparation tactics that guides attorneys through every phase of their case. This includes detailed information on challenging probable cause, filing effective motions, cross-examining a witness, and selecting expert witnesses.

Unlike Defending Drinking Drivers, The DUI Book was written in layman’s terms for the average person who has been accused of impaired driving. Co-authored with Atlanta Attorney William C. Head, the Michigan Edition of this book contains more than 1000 legal citations on Michigan and National case law.

The DUI Book provides answers information on every stage of a DUI case, from pre-arrest to appeals. Chemical and field sobriety testing are discussed in detail, as well as potential defenses for a drunk-driving case. There is also a chapter dedicated to teaching readers how to find a skilled DUI lawyer in order to increase the chances of winning their case.
