About Us

Our Philosophy

At Recovery Awareness LLC, we don’t inflate what we do—we evaluate, we document, and we tell the truth. Whether you're facing a DOT return-to-duty process, a court-ordered evaluation, or a situation that requires professional documentation, we offer assessments that are clear, compliant, and credible. We specialize in DOT SAP evaluations, mental health and substance abuse assessments, DUI evaluations, and expert testimony. Every evaluation is conducted with the intent to provide accurate, unbiased information—nothing more, nothing less.

We don’t play sides. Our role is to assess, document, and support your next steps with integrity. When your career, license, or legal status is on the line, you need someone who knows the system and stays in their lane. That’s what we do—deliver professional evaluations that hold up under scrutiny.

What guides us isn’t a slogan—it’s experience, ethics, and a sharp eye for detail. We understand what’s at stake and we don’t take that lightly. Confidentiality isn’t a courtesy here—it’s the standard. And compliance isn’t optional—it’s the rule.

Our Core Commitments

Integrity & Objectivity
We evaluate based on facts, not feelings. Our assessments—whether DOT SAP, mental health, substance use, or DUI-related—are impartial, defensible, and ethically sound.

Accuracy & Clarity
Every report is comprehensive, documented with precision, and written to meet the demands of regulatory, clinical, or legal review.

Confidentiality & Respect
We operate with discretion. Your personal information stays protected, and your story is handled with care, not judgment.

Compliance & Professional Standards
We stay current with all federal and state guidelines to ensure every evaluation meets or exceeds the required legal and clinical benchmarks.

Experience-Backed Testimony
When expert witness services are needed, we show up prepared. Our testimony is rooted in clinical experience, licensing standards, and a commitment to stating what’s true—not what’s convenient.
