DUI Defense

Murfreesboro DUI Defense Attorney Serving Middle Tennessee

Being charged with a DUI can be a life-changing experience, one in which you are confused, stressed, embarrassed, and worried about the consequences. This is especially true for those facing a first DUI arrest who have never been involved in the criminal justice system before and who know little or nothing about it. You need legal guidance to understand what you are up against, what your chances are for avoiding a conviction, and how best to proceed with handling the situation. You will get competent and experienced advice, a straightforward and honest assessment of your case, and aggressive and dedicated legal representation from the Murfreesboro DUI defense lawyer at the firm. Attorney Thomas Parkerson focuses his practice on DUI defense and, as a former Assistant District Attorney in Murfreesboro, Smyrna, LaVergne and all Rutherford County, he brings to the table extensive experience as a trial lawyer. Because of his years as a prosecutor, he has unique insight into how cases are developed by the State and can utilize this knowledge in creating an aggressive and competent defense.

Many possible defenses can be uncovered and explored in any DUI case. The Murfreesboro Dui defense attorney at the firm will analyze the evidence in your situation with a fine-tooth comb to find weaknesses and flaws in the case being developed against you by the State. The police officer may not have had probable cause in stopping you in the first place, may not have properly administered field sobriety tests, blood tests or breathalyzer tests, and may have incorrectly decided that you were too drunk to drive. Much of the evidence in a DUI is based on the subjective conclusions and evidence of the arresting officer. In addition, the chemical tests done on you may have been compromised by any number of factors, including poor maintenance and incorrect calibration of the equipment. Health or dental problems may have been involved. All of the scientific and legal factors in your case must be investigated and can play a part in an effective defense strategy.
