John Carlson recently received advanced level training, from the American Association of Premier DUI Attorneys, on how to use a driver’s internal body clock to win DUI cases. John received training on how a driver’s internal body clock can be assessed on both the Modified Romberg Balance Test and the One Leg Stand Test. If a driver’s internal body clock is found to be within +/- 5 seconds of 30 seconds, the defense can get an officer to testify that the driver’s internal body clock is consistent with the driver being not impaired at the time of the stop.
The American Association of Premier DUI Attorneys has compiled information from Judges, Traffic Safety Resource Prosecutors (the Top DUI Prosecutors in each State), DUI Prosecutors, current Law Enforcement Officers, former Law Enforcement Officers, and DUI Defense Attorneys to determine exactly what skills, knowledge, training, tools, resources, and strategies win the most DUI cases at trial and are also used to get DUI cases successfully resolved for the defense prior to trial.
When people need a DUI Attorney, the biggest challenge is knowing whether or not an attorney truly has the skills, knowledge, training, tools, resources, and strategies that are needed to successfully resolve and win DUI cases. Countless attorneys handle DUI cases. But, only a very small percentage have the skills, knowledge, training, tools, resources, and strategies that are needed to successfully resolve and win DUI cases.
Members of the American Association of Premier DUI Attorneys have received advanced level training on the strategies that win the most DUI cases at trial and are also used to get DUI cases successfully resolved for the defense prior to trial. Members of the American Association of Premier DUI Attorneys also have access to the resources and tools that are used to win and successfully resolve DUI cases and these are resources and tools that only a very small percentage of DUI attorneys have access to and use.
Attorney John B. Carlson has been practicing law in Erie and the surrounding area for nearly 20 years. During this time, he has defended thousands of citizens charged with DUI.
While much of Attorney Carlson’s practice involves DUI defense, Attorney Carlson also handles cases ranging from minor summary offenses to the most serious felony charges, including murder.
Having been on the winning side of some of Erie County’s most highly publicized cases, his successes have been reported on TV, in newspapers and over the internet.
In addition to his success in the courtroom, Attorney Carlson is also recognized for his hard work and experienced plea bargaining skills.
While most cases can be amicably resolved before going to court, if a trial is the only way to vindicate his clients’ rights, Attorney Carlson is recognized as a lawyer who is not afraid to try cases. As demonstrated by his trial successes, his aggressive efforts and attention to detail have resulted in many wrongfully accused citizens being rightfully acquitted.
To achieve success in the cases he handles, Attorney Carlson utilizes a unique combination of personal and professional skills. His training includes not only his college and law school studies, but an ongoing study of the ever-changing criminal laws. Each year, he takes part in extensive legal-education courses often exceeding the requirements of the State Board. Furthermore, beyond his professional education, Attorney Carlson knows how to listen, investigate, prepare, and then articulate his client’s case with the skill necessary to bring about successful results.
