North Carolina accepts online DWI classes only from state certified providers such as Absolute Advocacy.

Simply put, a DWI Assessment is a one-on-one online meeting with one of our understanding and knowledgeable substance use counselors. In this private meeting, we work out the best path forward in terms of classes or treatment to help you handle your DWI charge. Here at Absolute Advocacy, we’re all about making this process as easy and stress-free as possible for you. That’s why we do all this through telehealth – no need to come to our office, you can chat with us from the comfort of your own home.

Right after we’ve made sure we’re a good match for you, the first step is to invite you to our private client portal. It’s like a digital workspace where we can chat, help you gather and upload the documents we need (stuff like your citation, breathalyzer results, and driving record) to perform the assessment. You’ll also fill out a few necessary forms right there in the portal. Once we have all the documents and the forms are completed, we’ll get you on the schedule for your DWI Assessment at the earliest slot.
And don’t worry if you’re missing some documents – we’re seasoned document detectives and we can help you track them down

Our classes span a comfortable two-hour duration, taking place on various days throughout the week to cater to your schedule. Join us for sessions on Tuesdays at 9:30AM or 6:00PM, Wednesdays at 6:00PM, Thursdays at 9:30AM or 6:00PM, or even Saturdays at 9:00AM. We require you to attend at least one session weekly, but you’re welcome to participate more frequently if you wish. Best of all, all our classes are online, so no need to make a trip to our office – just log in from wherever you are!

Absolute Advocacy began providing DWI services in 2011. Since 2011 we’ve helped thousands of individuals regain their driving privilege and recover after a DWI charge. We are committed to providing our clients with the best possible experience, helping them move on with their lives after a DWI or substance abuse charge.

You can start your classes right away if you choose to. However, your DWI Assessment is valid for six months starting from the date that you were assessed. This means that if you do not begin your classes within six months of the assessment date, the assessment will expire and you will have to go through the entire assessment process again.

The fee for a DWI Assessment for a charge that occurred in North Carolina is $100. That fee is set by the state of North Carolina.

ADETS stands for Alcohol Drug Education Traffic School and is one of the services that Absolute Advocacy provide. The ADETS program is 16 hours that is completed over four days (Monday – Thursday) and is based on the Prime For Life curriculum.

The e508 form is an electronic verification that is sent to the North Carolina DMV that certifies that an individual has successfully met North Carolina’s DWI requirements. You will need to complete a substance use assessment and treatment prior to the e508 being submitted to the North Carolina DMV.

Even though you do not live North Carolina you can still meet the North Carolina DMV requirements in the state that you currently reside. That process is called an “Out of State Review” and is one of the services that Absolute Advocacy specializes in. You will still need to do an assessment and classes otherwise North Carolina will suspend your driving privilege. You can read more about the out of state review process here: https://www.absoluteadvocacy.org/dwi-help/out-of-state-dwi-dui-charge-in-north-carolina/
