Topics discussed throughout the seminar included current DUI defense practices, procedural differences across Virginia, field sobriety and impairment testing protocols, disclosure obligations involving potentially exculpatory evidence, constitutional issues involving traffic stops, arrests, and searches, and recent developments in Virginia law.

Robinson joined a faculty of judges and experienced Virginia attorneys, including Judge Earman, Hon. Peter Eliades, Hon. William Fitzpatrick, Hon. Michael Joseph Holleran, Hon. Jacqueline F. Ward Talevi, and other practitioners with experience handling DUI and serious traffic matters.

Having participated in the program previously, Robinson was pleased to once again contribute to the continuing legal education of attorneys practicing throughout Virginia.
