DUI and Accidents

 

Although DUI can have long-lasting consequences, many citizens are unaware that a DUI in additional to serious bodily injury results in the potential of being charge with the Felony Offense of Vehicular Assault.  Vehicular Assault in the State of Tennessee is a Class D Felony, punishable by up to 8 years in prison.  In some cases, clients may hire a Tennessee DUI attorney without regard to the seriousness of the situation.  Clients may be unaware that a seriously injured occupant in their or someone else’s vehicle involved in a DUI collision may be even more severe that only a DUI offense.  In some cases, the seriously injured occupant or passenger that is involved in a DUI related collision may later die and result in an extremely serious charge such as Vehicular Homicide.  In order to ensure that your case is handled correctly and such concerns are noticed and properly addressed, make sure you hire someone that is extremely familiar with Tennessee DUI law and Tennessee Criminal law.  

 

One of the most important things to do whenever there is a Tennessee DUI that results or contributes to an accident is to get a Tennessee DUI lawyer and an investigator involved immediately.  There is often vital information and data that must be collected right away in order to ensure that the best possible defense to you DUI, Vehicular Assault or Vehicular Homicide is developed from the onset.  If you have been charged with a Tennessee DUI or someone has been seriously injured or has died in an accident due to intoxication or reckless driving, call The Garza Law Firm immediately.
