About Tennessee DUIUnder Tennessee DUI laws there are two ways to be charged with driving under the influence in Dickson County. The first is to register a blood alcohol content at or above the legal limit of .08% during a breath, blood or urine test. Such testing must be performed within very strict guidelines and made within a certain amount of time following an arrest for suspicion of drunk driving.
The second way a motorist can be charged with DUI in Dickson County is simply by the observations of a law enforcement officer. If impairment from alcohol or drugs is suspected, a DUI arrest can be initiated. No evidence or BAC results are required.
Depending on the specifics of your arrest, Dickson County DUI Lawyer Francis King will develop a thorough defense. If there is BAC evidence, he will investigate equipment maintenance and calibration records. He will review the arrest report to see if the officer violated set rules and procedures. Without the results of a chemical test for blood alcohol content, Attorney Francis King will question the officer's interpretation of the arrest.
The goal is to get you the best possible result.
