While DUI is a Class A Misdemeanor, unless it is a DUI 4th Offense or more, in which case it is a Class E Felony, conviction carries a mandatory minimum amount of jail time, a mandatory minimum fine, as well as, a mandatory suspension of your driver’s license for at least one year.

During your Free Initial Consultation with Misty D. Parks, you will discuss the circumstances surrounding your arrest; discuss possible defenses and strategies for your court appearance. Ms. Parks has been trained by law enforcement on how to perform Standardized Field Sobriety Testing, and can attack defects in your arrest based on the officer’s administration of these tasks. From the time an individual is seized, pulled over by the police, or otherwise not free to leave, you have the right to remain silent, not answer questions asked by an officer, and to refuse to perform any tests that may later be offered into evidence against you at court.
If you refused to participate in a Breathalyzer, which is used to determine your Blood Alcohol Content (B.A.C.) you may also be charged with violation of Implied Consent Law. While a violation of the Tennessee Implied Consent Law is a civil offense, it can result in the suspension of your driving privileges for a period of one year.
