“The advantage of arresting somebody, whether they’re really drunk or not, is I continue to get that premium overtime.”

Ashley Smith and Adam Potts, both former THP troopers, told WSMV4 Investigates the repeated insistence to increase DUI arrests is inadvertently resulting in innocent people being charged with DUIs.

Happy Friday! Today Attorney Jay Adkins got his client’s DWI license revocation rescinded. This means the client will be able to resume driving and this incident will no longer appear on his driving record! Mr. Adkins already got all criminal charges dismissed so this is a true grand slam result for our client!

A big victory today for Attorney Jay Adkins. All felony charges against our client were dismissed prior to trial when Mr. Adkins was able to show the Court that the officer was not being truthful and failed to follow his training. Mr. Adkins received the same training as the officer which provided great material for a very effective cross-examination.

Today, Attorney Jay Adkins begins a three day NHTSA Standardized Field Sobriety Training in Alpharetta, Georgia. This is the same training law enforcement receives before being sent out into the field. It is our view that attorneys must know the training as well as, if not better than, officers.

A great way to head into the weekend: Mr. Adkins got his client their license back and all DWI charges dismissed! A grand slam result for a great client!

CDL saved!

Attorney Jay Adkins challenged a speeding case against his client. Most lawyers think these are unwinnable, but not so fast. Mr. Adkins meticulously went through all of the officer’s logs and records and found an error that no one, including the cop or state’s attorney, saw. Upon being presented with this at trial the judge had no choice but to find the client not guilty and dismiss all charges! That is the Godwin Adkins difference.

Congratulations to Attorney Jay Adkins of Godwin Adkins for securing a complete dismissal of serious charges yesterday due to cutting-edge 4th Amendment motions! We are thrilled for our client.
