I have been practicing for over 5 years in NY. I heard Anthony's name about a year ago and a half ago during a DWI conference. I heard that he was the GO-TO guy on field sobriety testing. A few months later he was instrumental in getting a case dismissed at a pretrial hearing in my county for another attorney. I would first use Anthony when a client of mine would want to use him. Anthony and I spoke often. We would have a hearing scheduled and rescheduled multiple times. The DA office would do all they could to try and keep Anthony out of the case. When they could not the DA made my client an incredible offer that he could not refuse. That had a lot to do with Anthony. What kept coming up when people talked about Anthony was the 24 hour Practioners SFST course. So I got on a plane flew into Georgia rented a dodge challenger and for 3 days had my mind blown. I learned so much in 3 days about the SFST. I now know what to look for on video and in the papers. I was given so many tools to help my clients. I also truly know what the police are looking for during the 3 phases prior to arrest because we went step by step through what the police were taught. We have the manual now and know how to effectively use it. This does not even include the actual stories and tidbits from hearings and trials Anthony learned during his years testifying for the prosecution and defense. This course was interesting, challenging, and made me a better lawyer. I can not recommend this enough. I am sure I will be back in Georgia taking another course with Anthony and using him again during my clients next DWI.

As an attorney, I take CLE classes every year, most of which last for days. Never in my 25 year legal career have I taken a class that I learned more from and got more out of than Mr. Palacios' Impaired Driving Specialists DWI Detection/Standardized Field Sobriety Testing course. This is not the usual course where you open your course material and zone-out. You must pay attention to the material, and apply what you've learned to volunteer subjects for DWI analysis. This class managed to get me to focus on details of what I've been doing for many years, and focus in a way I never could have without going through each step of the course. There is simply no substitute for learning the material the way it's taught in this course. I recommend this for ANY defense attorney or prosecutor who handles even an occasional DWI case. It's indispensable to attorneys who handle DWI more than occasionally. Five stars and both thumbs up!

I just attended the SFST training and I have to say in my 12+ years of being an attorney this was the best CLE experience I have had. Great presentation, an instructor that obviously knows his stuff and I walked away with a much greater understanding of the SFST's and DUI investigations as a whole.

Had a free phone consultation with Dale. He was very polite, knowledge, and relatable. I got the info I needed to make the next move. If i had to work with a real estate attorney I would start with a call to Dale.

Have known Samuel Johnson for approximately five years. Honest, knowledgeable and experienced.

Very smooth system, helpful and caring staff, efficient process all together. It was the best lawyer experience in I have ever had!

I highly recommend Sam Johnson and Associates. He, Mimi & Erica were a great help after my accident. They were very transparent, knowledgeable and kind. A great team!

Samuel Johnson And Associates were a beacon of hope to me at a time when I was suffering. Not only were they able to defend me from an complicate circumstance, their calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself. I am eternally grateful for their service and I hereby recommend Samuel Johnson And Associates without reservation.

Great lawyer. The team communicated with me throughout the entire process.

My practice in Indianapolis is limited to criminal defense. I've been at this for 20 years with dozens of DWI jury trials under my belt. Because of that experience, I felt like I knew NHTSA's "DWI Detection and Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST)" manual like the back of my hand. Let me tell you - I did not! There is NOTHING CLOSE to preparing yourself to CX officers in court on SFSTs than being trained to properly administer them yourself. Having recently completed IDS's 24-hour NHTSA Practitioner Course, I now have additional tools to defend my clients charged with DWI. Tony Palacios is an amazing instructor! A former police officer and DWI task force veteran, Tony has the experience and communication skills to make sure you come away from his course armed to better handle SFSTs in the courtroom. This is the exact same 24-hour course given to law enforcement officers across the country and includes two (2) hands-on practical exercise blocks where you will personally administer SFSTs to people who have consumed varying known quantities of alcohol. And your WILL be tested (and graded) in order to pass Tony's course. What are you waiting for? Take this course and improve your DWI practice today!
