DUI / DUII Evaluations, Assessments & Treatment
Starting Point, Inc. provides court-approved DUI/DUII services in Washington and Oregon, helping individuals meet applicable court, treatment, and licensing requirements. We are committed to providing professional evaluations, education, treatment, and support while helping participants understand the consequences of impaired driving and make responsible choices moving forward.
DUI / DUII Evaluations & Assessments
A DUI/DUII substance use evaluation or assessment appointment generally takes approximately 1.5 hours with the evaluator.
To complete an evaluation through Starting Point, participants MUST provide:
A current copy of their driving record
A copy of the police report related to the DUI/DUII
A urinalysis (UA) or oral swab
For Oregon DUII cases, the ADSS screening, when applicable
Starting Point requires a UA or oral swab as part of every DUI/DUII substance use evaluation, regardless of the state in which the DUI occurred.
Additional documentation may be requested depending on the individual’s court, state, probation, or licensing requirements.
Starting Point takes pride in providing timely service. Once all required documentation, testing, and information have been received, evaluations are generally completed and submitted to the appropriate authorized parties within 2–4 business days.
