In Tennessee, the law recognizes that driving while impaired, which results in the loss of life, requires a comprehensive and fair legal defense.

"Forever Changed My Life and I Will Be Forever Grateful"I was facing prison on multiple drug charges did not know what I was going to do. My mom hired Mr.Vasek and he fought hard for my case. I ended up getting probation with a year in recovery because I had an addiction problem. Mr.Vasek knew a place that forever changed my life. I will be forever grateful for what he did for me. I am now 2 yrs sober and I am very happy with where I am at now. Thank you Mr. Vasek!- J.W.
