Clarksville DUI/DWI Defense
What could a DUI conviction mean for you? If you are convicted for drunk driving in Tennessee, you could face jail time, fines, driver's license suspension and other criminal penalties. In addition, you can count on having higher car insurance rates if convicted for drunk driving.
At Patton & Pittman, our DUI/DWI defense lawyers fight aggressively to avoid such serious consequences for our clients. Contact us for a free consultation to discuss your rights and DUI defense strategy.
DUI/DWI Experience That Makes a Difference
Our criminal defense team includes attorneys Nathan Hunt and Chris Clark. Attorney Chris Clark brings six years experience as an Assistant District Attorney to our firm. As a former prosecutor, he trained police officers on how to testify in court. He knows firsthand the kind of language officers are trained to use in discussing field sobriety tests and other evidence in the courtroom. This knowledge strengthens our ability to effectively cross examine the officers, challenge roadside test results, and obtain a more favorable outcome for clients. Just because you failed a field sobriety test doesn't mean you will be convicted.
First Offense DUI/DWI and Your Driving Privileges
There are options for people facing first offense DUI/DWI charges. If you have not had a prior DUI conviction in the last 10 years, you may be eligible for a conditional/restricted driver's license that permits you to drive to school and work for the duration of your suspended license. Conditional licenses are not available to some repeat DUI offenders.
DUI/DWI Defense for Military Personnel
Military personnel can jeopardize their military career if they are found guilty of drunk driving. Our criminal defense attorneys comprehend the impact a conviction will have and do everything we can to avoid such drastic results. We regularly represent the interests of military personnel stationed at Fort Campbell.
