Why Substance Use Assessments Matter

If your driver’s license was suspended or revoked for a substance-related offense (like DUI, OWI, or MIP), the state or courts may require an evaluation before reinstatement.

 

Our assessments are designed to:

 

  • Review your history and substance use patterns

  • Evaluate your risk level and readiness for change

  • Provide professional documentation to support your case

 

We handle every evaluation with professionalism, empathy, and respect — ensuring you receive both the clarity and documentation you need.

Who Needs an Evaluation

You may need a substance use assessment if you:

 

  • Had a DUI / OWI / intoxicated driving violation

  • Were charged with a substance-related offense requiring evaluation

  • Were ordered by a court, attorney, or agency to complete an assessment

  • Are appealing a license denial and need an updated evaluation

​

Assessments typically include a certified 12-panel drug screen and disclosure of treatment and legal history. We’ll walk you through each requirement step by step.

What the Evaluation Includes

Each assessment is comprehensive and compliant with Michigan state standards. You can expect:

 

  • Structured clinical questionnaire

  • Review of substance use and treatment history

  • Review of criminal and legal background

  • Evaluation of your support systems and environment

  • Professional summary, prognosis, and recommendations

 

A certified drug test is required; if needed, we’ll connect you with trusted labs that meet court standards.

Telehealth & Convenience

All assessments are completed 100% online through secure telehealth.

​

You’ll be able to:

 

  • Upload documents safely and easily

  • Complete your interview remotely
