You might be thinking, "A DUI/DWI is a personal matter; it shouldn't affect my job, right?" Well, it can be tricky. Many are caught off guard by how a DUI/DWI might affect their work status, professional license, or job prospects. That's where we zoom in to highlight your rights and build a fortress around your career. Understanding your rights is the first line of defense we offer.

Whether it concerns disclosure or facing employer actions, we arm you with all the must-know details. Laws can vary from place to place, so we make it our duty to be up-to-date on the regulations that specifically affect you. Knowledge is power, and we believe in empowering our clients.

Many employers have specific policies in place about criminal charges, including DUI/DWIs. Some might demand disclosure, while others focus on how a conviction might impede your job performance or company reputation. That's why it's vital to understand your employer's policies inside and out-and that's where we come in, acting like your personal GPS through the world of company handbooks and HR protocols.

We won't let you wander through confusing jargon and potential pitfalls alone. With a solid plan, crafted with our help, you can handle any HR meeting or inquiry with confidence, ensuring the best possible outcome from an uneasy situation.

A DUI/DWI may feel like an immovable roadblock in your career path, but there are ways around it with the right strategy. We help you craft a response to your situation that is honest, contrite, and shows your commitment to rectifying the mistake. Whether it's negotiating with your employer, seeking out educational programs, or finding legal support, we're here to help you build bridges, not burn them.

We know that no two cases are alike-your career, industry, and circumstances are all unique to you. That's why our advice and support are tailored to your situation. We're not just advisors; we're your strategic partners in setting the stage for a comeback.

A DUI/DWI charge can feel like a giant stop sign in your life's journey, but it doesn't have to be the end of the road. At Doyen Sebesta & Poelma Lllp, we emphasize taking prompt and proactive steps to cushion the potential impact on your job. Initiating the right moves swiftly can mean the difference between a small bump in your career path and a total derailment.

That's right, being proactive is key. This isn't just about damage control; it's about showing initiative and the ability to handle adversity effectively-a quality that employers value. Let us help you turn a negative situation into an opportunity to display professionalism and resilience.

Every move you make post-DUI/DWI matters, and we know the ins and outs of making those moves count. Let's unpack the strategies and put together a plan that tells your side of the story and frames your situation in the best possible light.

Following a DUI/DWI, demonstrating your sense of responsibility can go a long way with your employer. We guide you through steps you can take to show you're serious about making amends. This includes being upfront about your situation and taking part in any required programs or counseling.

It's also about what you do outside of work to show you're committed to change. We can explore volunteer opportunities or community service, which not only benefit others but also reflect positively on your character and commitment to improvement.

Sometimes, the best strategy is to get ahead of the issue by seeking out alcoholic rehabilitation or educational programs. This proactive measure not only aids in your personal recovery but also shows an employer that you are taking active steps to ensure an incident like this won't happen again.

We can discuss various local or national programs that best fit your needs and schedule. Participation in such programs can also sometimes be used in court to show you've taken responsibility, which might even help out with your legal situation.

Communication is always essential, and this is especially true in the aftermath of a DUI/DWI. We advise on how to maintain open lines of communication with your employer in a way that is respectful and constructive, ensuring they're informed and understand your commitment to rectifying the situation.

Not sure how to word those tricky emails or what to say in a meeting? We've got fail-safe templates and practice scenarios so you can handle those exchanges like a champ.
