Show Notes
Emergency medical providers are comfortable in the chaos of a crashing medical or trauma patient. We know how to systematically address dangerous medical conditions like hypotension, hypoxia and bradycardia. However, when asked to dip our toes into the legal realm, we are often paralyzed with fear. On this episode, the podcast crew is joined by local legal expert, Andrew James. Mr. James is the vehicular crimes chief with the Montgomery County DA's office, and he has extensive experience working with medics and first responders in the courtroom. Listen and learn some of the basics of what happens when you're called to court as witness.
