Police Training

In October of 2019 Attorney Kelly received police training certifying him as a Standard Field Sobriety Test Practitioner. It is important to know what kinds of field tests are administered in DUI cases and how to refute them in Court.

Attorney Michael P. Kelly recently completed Advanced Roadside Impairment Detection Training. Also known as ARIDE, this is the training police officers receive to detect what they suspect is impairment caused by drugs, rather than alcohol. This is a two day, sixteen hour course offered to Troopers who have already completed their field sobriety training. It is important that your DUI lawyer is familiar with the ways the Commonwealth tries to prove impairment. As far as we are concerned, at M. P. Kelly Law, the best way to do that is to actually attend and complete the same training as the police.
