Taylor is one of the best there is on the tactics of DUI practice and the book is full of methods that can work for you.

Taylor's patented approach to crossing the cop in a drunk driving case has been termed creating 'the Wedge' and can be regarded as so fundamental that newer drunk driving defense practitioners may not be aware that Taylor was its originator
