Multiple DUI Defense Attorneys
Being charged with a first DUI is nerve-wracking, but a second or third DUI increases the stakes considerably. In Tennessee, DUI penalties are already tough. If you are guilty of a repeat offense, you can expect lower odds of receiving lesser consequences. You may even face a felony conviction.
A charge for multiple DUI should never be taken lightly. If you have been arrested for driving under the influence for the first, second, third, or even fourth time, you must get your case under control as soon as possible. Retain the hard-hitting representation you need to protect your rights and future freedom. At the Law Office of Lucas B. Willoughby, we are prepared to powerfully advocate for you.
Contact us at Law Office of Lucas B. Willoughby at (615) 745-3434 today to schedule a free case evaluation with our multiple DUI defense attorney in Nashville.
