Virtual (Zoom) DUI Evaluations

If you’ve never had one before; you may be wondering what to expect at a DUI evaluation. When you arrive at the Diversion Center, you will meet with one of our professional clinicians. They will gather information from you such as your substance abuse history and or any criminal charges such as a DUI or drug charge. They will also review any police reports or court mandates. They may run a series of tests to help determine whether you have a substance abuse issue or other mental health condition. 

The goal of a DUI evaluation is to give the courts and probation the best recommendation for follow-up care based on your specific needs. It’s important to note that these evaluations are not to determine guilt or innocence, rather, they are used to determine the best course of action moving forward, which may include a probationary period, mandated courses or programs, inpatient or outpatient treatment, or future drug or alcohol screenings.   

What is a DUI Evaluation?

A DUI evaluation is a clinical evaluation, often required by law, for anyone who has had a DUI. Judges will require a DUI evaluation for a first offender and multiple offenders. The evaluation is a one-time assessment that typically takes about an hour. During the evaluation a licensed professional, often a social worker, therapist, or counselor, will conduct an interview and gather pertinent information about a person’s substance abuse history. This may include the individual’s: 

  • Medical background
  • Substance abuse history
  • Mental health history 
  • Drinking or drug-use patterns
  • Family history
  • Employment history 
  • Abuse history

The professional may also conduct a substance abuse assessment and assign a risk level based on all the information gathered.  

The Diversion Center offers court-approved evaluations, which means we can work with the courts and probation to recommend a plan of action that will help you legally and personally overcome a substance abuse problem. We may recommend certain court-mandated courses that will help you understand why you made decisions that led you to this point in your life. These courses also give you practical strategies to implement in your day-to-day life that will help you avoid criminal charges and consequences in the future.
