Tennessee Arrest and Release

Other Tennessee Resources

There are a variety of special problems that arise following a drunk driving, DUI, or DWI arrest. It may be necessary to use a bail bondsman to help a friend or loved one gain release from custody. Renting a car may be difficult (although we know of several companies that will do so), as is getting car insurance. There may be a requirement to attend special alcohol programs, or AA meetings.

Expungement of criminal records

Expungement of criminal records can be a complex process, and the ability to clean up past criminal convictions depends upon many different factors. The law relating to expunging criminal convictions varies from state to state. In Tennessee, expungement is allowed when a defendant has their case dismissed, or if a judge or jury acquits them. It is a civil proceeding filed in the county in which the alleged offense occurred. It is important that you consult with a lawyer that is skilled in matters pertaining to expungement.
