Defense Textbooks

Lawrence Taylor is the author of the most authoritative and critically acclaimed textbooks in the field. His classic Drunk Driving Defense is now in its 7th edition after 26 years as the leading work on drunk driving litigation. Its popularity led to the publication in 1988 of a California version of the book, California Drunk Driving Defense. Both volumes are supplemented annually to keep DUI lawyers up-to-date with the latest in DUI law, blood-alcohol science, police evidence and trial tactics and techniques.
