About Alex Berger

Alex has worked toward being a criminal defense attorney since high school. During law school, he clerked for defense attorneys and served as a teaching assistant to a criminal law professor. In 2012, Alex graduated from Indiana University Law School with high honors. He attended social work school at the University of Chicago and then took his first law job as a public defender in Iowa. He moved to Wyoming in 2014 and contracted with the Wyoming Public Defender’s Office to represent those accused of a crime who could not afford an attorney. In 2018, Alex was elected as the Weston County, Wyoming, prosecutor and gained valuable experience working with law enforcement and prosecuting crimes, but his heart was always with the defense and protecting the Constitution. In Michigan, he worked as a part-time prosecutor in Houghton County, authored a chapter on pretrial motions in Michigan Criminal Law and Procedure with Forms, and serves on the Criminal Law Section Leadership Council for the Michigan State Bar. In 2023, he was certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to perform roadside Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, the same exact certification that law enforcement receives. He has been trained on the science and flaws of the Intoxilyzer 9000, the big alcohol breath test used in Michigan. He is also an ACS-CHAL Forensic Lawyer-Scientist, which required four weeks of intensive laboratory and classroom training and a written exam. Finally, Alex is active in the National College for DUI Defense, the DUI Defense Lawyers Association, and the MI Association of OWI Attorneys.

Oral Fluid Testing: Roadside vs. Evidential Analyses

09/02/2025

Written by Ashley M. Hart As cannabis is being decriminalized in many states, there has been increased interest in rapid roadside tests to detect THC and other substances for intoxicated driving charges. A majority of states now have oral fluid testing in some form: roadside (presumptive) or evidential (confirmed in a lab). These states include Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Connecticut,...
