Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
If you or a loved one has been accused or arrested for a crime, you need to retain a criminal defense attorney in Knoxville that you can trust like Eldridge & Blakney. We recommend that you read what our past clients are saying about our firm to help you feel more confident about hiring us.
DUI/DWI
DUI (driving under the influence), also referred to as DWI (driving while intoxicated), is considered to be a serious offense in Tennessee that often results in considerable penalties. If you have violated traffic laws or been driving unsteadily, a police officer may pull you over and ask you to take a field sobriety test. They may ask to test your breath for its blood alcohol content and ask you to submit blood sample. If you are convicted or plead guilty, Tennessee has a mandatory jail time for first-time offenders.
Wrongful Death
Ms. Blakney graduated from the University of Tennessee College of Law, with honors, in 1999, and has practiced law in Knoxville since her graduation. A Martindale-Hubbell AV Preeminent rated lawyer, Ms. Blakney’s work has been recognized by her peers, having been voted as a Knoxville CityView Top Attorney throughout the years in the following categories: Wrongful Death—Plaintiff, Appellate Practice, Constitutional Law/Civil Rights, Criminal Defense, DUI Defense, Juvenile Defense, Labor & Employment Law —Employee, Personal Injury —Automobile Accidents, Federal Court Practice, and Workers’ Compensation.
Traffic Violations
In Tennessee, these charges include offenses such as reckless driving and prostitution. Penalties can include up to 6 months in jail and up to $500 in fines.
Fraud
Robbery
The most common kind of felony theft is robbery, mugging (robbery in a public place), & carjacking, which is the taking of valuables through force or violent means. Due to its violent nature, robbery sentences are typically 3 - 15 years in jail.
Burglary
Theft takes many forms and can be classified as a misdemeanor or felony depending on the value of the property stolen. Additionally, theft can be classified as a violent crime if violence, the threat of violence, or a weapon was used during the theft. Other forms of theft include white collar crimes such as embezzlement and fraud; burglary, which involves breaking and entering to commit theft; and robbery, in which theft is committed through force.

Theft
Misdemeanors
Assault is typically a class A misdemeanor that comes with a penalty of up to 1 year in jail and/or $2.5k in fines. Assault may also be accompanied by a battery charge when someone makes physical contact with the intent to cause harm which would come with increased penalties.
Embezzlement
White collar crimes typically refer to crimes committed in a corporate setting. These charges usually involve crimes such as embezzlement, fraud, bribery, and forgery, and they are taken seriously. There are even many cases that are prosecuted as federal offenses, which usually carry stricter penalties than state offenses. Though the charges are serious, you can significantly impact the outcome of your case by hiring an attorney who is skilled and experienced in white collar crime defense.
Drug Crimes
It is not unusual for a person to be charged with multiple drug offenses at once. Simply being found with drugs on your person or property can lead law enforcement to draw all kinds of conclusions. Though you should only be charged for crimes that can be definitively proved, the prosecution will typically add many other charges to your case in order to make it more damming.
Assault
Aggravated assault is a serious felony and is the more severe version of an assault charge. Assault is usually upgraded to aggravated assault when serious bodily injury/death occurs, when a deadly weapon is used/displayed, or if a victim is strangled.
Identity Theft
Homicide
If a police officer has probable cause to believe that a driver is operating a vehicle under the influence, committed the offense of vehicular assault, aggravated vehicular assault, vehicular homicide, or aggravated vehicular homicide, refusal to submit to a breathalyzer test will result in a suspension of the driver’s license. However, the police officer must comply with strict procedures before your license can be suspended. You should consult with a lawyer to determine if you have a defense.
Forgery
Never assume that your case is over before it begins. No matter how damning the evidence against you may seem, there always new details that you and your defense attorney can investigate together to determine the best possible outcome.
Prostitution
