SEMINAR
This seminar offers a comprehensive overview of key toxicology concepts relevant to various legal practices, including criminal, personal injury, employment, and general law. This one-hour presentation equips attorneys with the knowledge to address toxicology issues in cases involving substance use, impairment, and drug testing. Topics covered include the relationship between drug levels and impairment, the science behind alcohol-related visible intoxication, challenges in interpreting postmortem drug levels, the potential impairment caused by dietary supplements, and an explanation of the three basic principles of drug testing—screening, confirmation, and reporting.
