  6. Oxford, Judy: Although getting pulled over and failing a breathalyzer or field sobriety test isn't good, it is not the end of the story. The state still has to prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt ... unless you make it easy for them. If you have recently been arrested and charged with a DUI — don't assume that nothing can be done to avoid a conviction.

  8. Byrd, Spitz & Church: Facing criminal charges is a painful and traumatic experience. Effective and competent legal representation in these matters can relieve some of the stress associated with facing criminal charges.
  9. Milazo Law: If you are charged with DUI, we first determine if the Police had the right to stop the vehicle, detain the driver, administer Standardized Field Sobriety Tasks and/or administer a chemical test. If Field Sobriety Tasks were administered, it is essential to have an experienced trial attorney determine if the tasks were properly administered. You must be placed under arrest for Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Drugs before the Police have the right to request a chemical Blood Alcohol Content test (BAC) such as the breathalyzer or even an actual blood test. You have the right to refuse the chemical test; however, you may be charged with violating the Implied Consent Law and your driver license may be revoked for refusing to submit to the test. Even if you have submitted to a Blood Alcohol Content test to determine the level of alcohol in your blood, there are factors related to the arrest that could allow that evidence to be suppressed and prohibit the prosecutor from using that evidence against you.
  10. Hartzog & Silva: Being charged with any crime, including a relatively "minor" crime like DUI or simple drug possession, can be extremely stressful and have major consequences. You may be worried about issues ranging from how you will drive to work if your license is suspended to what sort of impact a criminal record would have on your future employment. If you have been charged with driving under the influence (DUI), the assistance of a qualified, experienced defense attorney can be extremely valuable in helping you identify opportunities to avoid conviction or reduce the consequences. Tennessee law requires driver's license revocation on at least a temporary basis for anyone convicted of DUI. There are also criminal fines and possible jail time involved. DUI defense may involve calling into question the legality of the traffic stop or the validity of the breath test, or it may involve negotiating for less strict penalties. The closely related charge of driving while intoxicated (DWI) applies exclusively to people between the ages of 16 and 21. This crime involves a lower threshold blood alcohol content (BAC) level. but also lesser penalties. If you are under 21 and have been charged with DUI, one defense strategy may be to get your charge amended to DWI.
