SAVE THE DATE: 2026 Summer Session - DUI Trials Unleashed: From Voir Dire to Victory

NCDD Seminars and Sessions

July 16, 2026 - July 18, 2026

SAVE THE DATE - JULY 16-18, 2026 SUMMER SESSION - NASHVILLE, TN

This summer in Nashville, NCDD is breaking the mold. Our Summer Session DUI Trials Unleashed; From Voir Dire to Victory will be shorter presentations, sharper, and intensely practical—designed around live demonstrations and real-world skill application rather than traditional lecture blocks. You will see techniques performed, explained, and deconstructed in real time, giving you tools you can immediately carry back into your courtroom practice. This is about how great DUI defense is actually done.

The faculty lineup alone makes this a must-go event:

  • a sitting judge offering a candid, inside-the-bench perspective on what truly makes an effective lawyer
  • a defense attorney who successfully argued the commutation hearing for Leonard Peltier of AIM, sharing hard-earned lessons from one of the most consequential advocacy moments of his career
  • a nationally recognized law professor whose “Don’t Talk to the Police” video has reached over 23 million viewers on YouTube

Access, insight, and demonstration at this level are rare—combined in one room, they are extraordinary.

Nashville will not be a typical seminar. It will be an experience.

Interview With an Amicus
