DUI/Impaired or Drugged Driving

You Need an Attorney to Fight Your Impaired Driving Charge

If you’re facing charges for DUI, DWI or BUI in Middle Tennessee, contact Nathan Cate to discuss your case.

Being arrested for Driving Under the Influence in Tennessee can affect your job, insurance rates, driving privileges, and even your liberty. The fines and penalties become more severe if this is not your first DUI, meaning you are a Subsequent DUI Offender. If you or a family member has been charged with a DUI/Impaired or Drugged Driving, you need an experienced Tennessee DUI attorney to represent you.

I understand this can be an uncertain time and that you may be nervous about what happens next. I help clients facing DUI charges. Let me put my experience to work for you.

I will develop a strategy to defend you

I have a thorough knowledge of the Tennessee DUI statute, police guidelines and general orders, and police procedures. All of which will assist me in developing a winning strategy for your case. When you retain my services, I begin an exhaustive investigation into the circumstances surrounding your case. I break down every element of the charge and investigate each element fully and completely. In this process, I look for errors committed by law enforcement, violations of your constitutional rights, and I use these issues to try to suppress the evidence that the State has against you.

I believe your best defense happens before I ever step into the courtroom

Careful preparation is one of the hallmarks my DUI defense. Every DUI case has the potential to go to trial. Knowing this, I prepare for each case as if it were going to trial. I will, however, use my negotiating skills to try to work out a deal with the State in order to reach your best possible outcome. Being fully prepared for trial allows me to negotiate from the strongest possible position, meaning I negotiate based on my terms, not the State’s.
