(512) 355-1161, and our experts will walk you through the critical steps required to safeguard your career.
Initial Steps to Take After a DUI/DWI Charge
Upon obtaining a DUI/DWI, taking proactive measures can significantly influence the outcome you face with your employer. Don't wait for the issue to escalate. The first line of defense is to understand your rights and responsibilities:
You need to review your company's policy regarding arrests and convictions to gauge the possible repercussions. Remember, knowledge is power, and having a full grasp of the implications is pivotal in determining the course of action.
Communication with Your Employer
Open and honest communication with your employer can often mitigate complications that arise after a DUI/DWI. Transparency is vital, and we advise approaching this conversation with tact and respect for your organization's policies.
The conversation with your employer should be thoughtful and well-strategized to foster understanding rather than alarm or disappointment. Document all discussions to protect yourself and establish a record of transparency.
Exploring Legal Protection and Advocacy
Being well-informed about the legal aspects can be a saving grace when your employment is at risk. There are certain protections in place, such as The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which may cover alcoholism as a disability under specific circumstances.
Seeking legal counsel is advisable, as they may identify protections that apply to your unique situation. We provide referrals to experienced attorneys if the need arises, ensuring that you have the most robust defense on your side.
Planning for Transportation and Rehabilitation
A DUI/DWI often results in the loss of driving privileges. It's imperative to plan for alternative modes of transportation so your attendance and punctuality at work remain unaffected. Employers will appreciate your foresight and dedication to your role.
Voluntary enrollment in rehabilitation programs can demonstrate your commitment to personal growth and responsibility, potentially affecting your employer's decision regarding your employment status.
Proactive Measures to Safeguard Your Career
At JD Wilson Law Firm, we empower our clients to take control of their future by taking decisive, precautionary actions. Your career doesn't have to be a casualty of a DUI/DWI. Early intervention and strategic planning form the bedrock of career defense.
We collaborate with our clients to create personalized, actionable plans. This planning entails a comprehensive analysis of work-related policies, understanding potential areas of concern, and developing a versatile strategy tailored to each client's situation.
Understanding Your Employment Contract
Knowledge of the details within your employment contract can provide insight into the consequences you may face. Clauses related to criminal conduct or legal issues can guide your approach to discussing the matter with your employer.
Our team reviews contracts, focusing on any areas that might impact your situation post-DUI/DWI. This read-through is vital for protecting you against unforeseen actions by your employer.
Effective Decision-Making with Professional Assistance
Seeking guidance from professionals can significantly impact decision-making. We offer our expertise to assist you in evaluating the pros and cons of disclosing your DUI/DWI to your employer and the timing of such disclosures.
Our advisors scrutinize every aspect of your situation, ensuring that each decision you make is guided by a strategic, professional perspective and serves your best interests.
Creating an Actionable Plan for Job Retention
A clearly defined action plan is essential for job retention. We aid you in outlining the steps you must take, setting realistic goals, and preparing for various outcomes.
This structured approach allows you to progress with purpose and clarity, greatly improving the likelihood of retaining your employment and managing the consequences of a DUI/DWI.
Negotiating Adjustments with Employers
Sometimes, negotiating adjustments to your work conditions can contribute to job retention. Flexibility in scheduling or temporary changes in responsibilities can show your employer that you're actively working to mitigate the potential impact on your job performance.
We can help you approach your employer with effective negotiating tactics that are assertive yet respectful of company policy. This approach aims to maintain an amicable and productive working relationship during this challenging time.
