The attorneys of Oberman & Rice are licensed to practice in all Tennessee Courts, including both State and Federal jurisdictions. Although best known for their work as DUI lawyers in Tennessee, Mr. Oberman and Ms. Compher-Rice regularly assist those charged with a variety of criminal offenses, both misdemeanors and felonies.
A Tennessee DUI offense is often accompanied by other related criminal charges, such as Traffic Offenses (e.g., Speeding, Following Too Close, Failure to Yield), Misdemeanor Offenses (e.g., Simple Possession, Underage Consumption of Alcohol, Reckless Driving, Driving a Revoked License), and Felony Offenses (e.g., Vehicular Assault, Reckless Endangerment, Habitual Motor Vehicle Offender). Whether it be a traffic violation or serious felony offense, the Oberman & Rice law firm is prepared to represent you and protect your legal rights.
Although not a criminal offense, Tennessee DUI defendants may also experience the seizure and forfeiture of their vehicle as a result of their criminal charge. Our lawyers are also available to represent those facing forfeiture proceedings before the Tennessee Department of Safety.
The best way to determine if a client has a viable defense or claim is to meet with an attorney of the Oberman & Rice law firm as soon as possible. A prompt investigation of the facts and circumstances dramatically increases the client’s chances of obtaining the best possible result.
