H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
More information is needed such as a review of your old discovery, unfortunately its not a simple yes or no answer as it depends on many factors including but not limited to your BAC level. I suggest a sit down consultation with an experienced DWI lawyer.

Q: Hi, am i eligible to claim my bonus if i leave in the middle of the year with the clause i signed below?
H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
An attorney cannot give you legal advise without reading the whole document to give you the advise you seek. It would be like asking a doctor to prescribe medication to you for a cold but he did not examine you and not only do you have a cold but a heart condition which will effect the medication you can take.
