LAW FIRM TEAM EXPLAINED The
Bose Law Firm team understands the mindset of the Police
officer, Prosecutor, and the Prosecutor's Expert Toxicologist.
| Former Police Officers |
Bose employs
former police officers to analyze police procedure
and form unique defenses based on years of experience.
POINTS
OF DISTINCTION In an effort to emulate our expertise
in the realm of DUI/RD defense, some law firms have
structured "Of Counsel" agreements with attorneys who are former military
police officers. These "Of Counsel"
agreements are basically subcontractor agreements formed between a
law firm and a solo practitioner (one person
practice) not associated directly with the firm. "Of Counsel"
attorneys have their own clients and serve only a portion of their practice
time as subcontractors to the law firm claiming them as
"Of Counsel." Bose attorneys are not subcontractors; they
are employees of the Firm with only one set of clients and
only one focus - a Bose Law Firm client's best
interest. Bose Law Firm employs a former Virginia Fairfax County police
officer. For DUI and Reckless driving cases, the experience
of former Virginia police officers is valuable.
One of Virginia's
self-proclaimed "largest" firms (with only a handful of DUI/RD lawyers
amongst a sea of civil attorneys) now highlights
that its Constitutional Attorney is a 2007 graduate
of the Arlington County Citizen Police
Academy. Clients, with their security clearances and
livelihoods at risk, know and research
professionals. They are not easily fooled or
impressed. When one speaks with a Bose Law Firm
attorney, one knows he is speaking with a person with authority. When one interacts with a
Bose Law Firm attorney, one immeditely senses the years of
experience and dedicated advocacy. To
this end, Bose Law Firm attorneys are available for telephone consultations
without charge. Bose Law Firm is proud of its heritage,
lineage and trust amongst a very small community of attorneys, police
officers and highly discerning professionals who chose Bose
Law Firm as their attorneys of choice.
Query: Did the
police properly pace you in your Virginia reckless driving case
pursuant to academy standards? Did the police properly
conduct the Virginia DUI field sobriety tests?
| | Former
Virginia Private Investigators |
Bose lawyers include a former private
investigator with
unique
talent in investigating crimes, testifying in trials and understanding
the criminal justice system.
POINTS OF
DISTINCTION Some law firms hire private investigators
to assist in cases and charge these subcontractor/third party fees to
the client. Bose does not hire outside personnel.
Again, the focus is to contain all information in-house and maintain a
high level of nexus to the core competencies within the
Firm. Query: Does the
witness in your Virginia DUI accident case have convictions which
impede his
level of truthfulness? Are there witnesses with exculpatory
evidence
in your Virginia DUI accident case? Did the police get the
facts
right in your Virginia reckless driving case?
| | Former
Prosecutors | Bose Law Firm®
lawyers include a former prosecutor who has handled
felonies and misdemeanors on behalf of the Government. This
experience is indispensable in understanding the mind set of the
attorney who will prosecute the case. Query: How will the prosecutor's
office polices and state mandates affect your disposition?
Was the prosecutor taught the latest scientific defenses in her yearly
Assistant Commonwealth Attorney seminars?
| | Former
Scientist |
Bose
lawyers include
counsel with training
in advanced chemistry, physiology, biology at the
university level.
This experience leads to a very careful analysis of complex chemical
evidence, testing procedures and protocols.
POINTS OF
DISTINCTION Having a scientist with high level
university training is not necessary for all DUI cases.
However, it is indispensible in cases when the
prosecutor calls its Richmond,
Virginia based Expert Toxicologist - the Breath Section Chief
for the Division of Forensic Science. If there is a trial in
one's DUI case and if the science of the blood or breath is attacked by
the defense, there is a high probability of the government
calling the Breath Section Chief to tender expert testimony.
Knowledge is power - particularly in the sciences.
Query:
Will your atkins diet influence the production of ketones and thus
enhance your blood alcohol and thus the facts of your Virginia DUI
case? Will the procedure implemented by the registered nurse
in
extracting your blood in your Virginia DUI case influence the
results? |
| Lecturers and
Professors |
Bose Law Firm®
attorneys teach other lawyers and police officers various areas of
criminal law, DUI defense and criminal procedure. Further,
Bose lawyers teach police officers in
various forums and are lecturers and professors in local
colleges. POINTS OF DISTINCTION
Bose attorney Thaddeus Furlong teaches in the F.B.I.
Academy. The distinction is one of honor and prestige.

The
Bose Law Firm®
achieves its ends for clients quietly and with great
discretion. Indeed, Bose Law Firm®
clients are professionals experienced in choosing
high-level attorneys for their private
matters. Bose Law Firm® clients understand
communication and the subtle distinctions between attorneys -
those seeking fleeting moments of fame and the true pillars of
the legal community. Bose Law Firm®
attorneys are practitioners of the law - not commentators on the
law. Bose Law Firm®
attorneys, as a policy, are discouraged from commenting on cases in
which the Firm is uninvolved. Commentaries and press releases
are distributed solely for cases in which the Firm is
retained, with a watchful eye on the privacy interests of the client,
and only when it advances the legal interests of the client. Experience,
Sophistication and Calculation over Pervasive Media.
POINTS OF
DISTINCTION: The Largest Firms Myth: As stated above, some firms, for a
marketing edge employ subcontractors into their practices.
The label of "Of Counsel" as opposed to "Associate" are
basic subcontractor agreements. These "Of Counsel"
lawyers have their own practices outside of the firm, their own staff,
their own business model and perform services part-time for the firms
with whom they hold the title "Of Counsel." In
reviewing a firm's true size, one must to careful to review the number
of actual associates (attorneys with a W-2 from the firm) as opposed to
"Of Counsel." Most of the self-proclaimed "largest
firms" have no more than 10-15 Associates at any one time - and only a
handful of these attorneys are experienced DUI/RD
lawyers. Indeed, for a list of the largest law firms
in the U.S., review http://www.ilrg.com/nlj250/.
Point of Interest: Most of the truly large law firms do not have DUI/RD
Law Divisions - the partners from these firms routinely refer cases to
the attorneys of the Bose Law Firm®.
