Founding Member National College for DUI Defense

The NCDD, Summer Programs at Harvard Law School, was created in 1995. That year, David was the only New Mexico attorney (and one of only 60 nationwide) to be accepted.

Welcome to New Mexico's Premier DWI/DUI Drunk Driving Defense Web Site sponsored by the Law Offices of David C. Serna, based in Albuquerque. Mr. Serna is a Board Certified Criminal Defense Specialist who limits his practice to the defense of the accused and related matters. While this Web Site is dedicated to drunk driving defense, Mr. Serna's Albuquerque law office also sponsors New Mexico's Premier Criminal Defense Web Site: www.sernalaw.com, which is linked to this page. Please visit that Web Site for comprehensive information regarding other areas of criminal law practiced by Mr. Serna.

In 1995, when the National College for DUI Defense, Summer Programs at Harvard Law School was created, only 60 lawyers from across the nation were invited to participate. Mr. Serna was the only attorney from the State of New Mexico who was invited to participate that first year. Mr. Serna is the first New Mexico lawyer to be named Founding Member of the National College for DUI Defense at Harvard Law School.

Mr. Serna has been in practice since 1977 and has logged many miles handling the scores of criminal cases in over 11 states. He has garnered many coveted honors, held positions of distinction, and has gained the esteem of his fellow defense lawyers, prosecutors, and judges before whom he has appeared. For example, he was the only lawyer in New Mexico to be interviewed by Lawyers Weekly USA, published in Boston, Massachusetts, for its September 2001 front page story "Drunk Driving Attorneys Use Police Videotapes to Win Cases".

Mr. Serna is a frequent speaker at Continuing Legal Education seminars and other presentations where he is invited to educate fellow attorneys, judges, and members of the general public about "cutting-edge" issues surrounding DWI/DUI drunk driving defense.

This site and continued updates will provide you with detailed supporting information about David C. Serna, his professional qualifications and his approach to the practice of DWI/DUI drunk driving defense.
