Accepting New Clients, Call for a Consultation
After graduating from law school in 2007, A.Z. spent a brief period of time in private practice before accepting a position as an Assistant Public Defender in Knox County, Tennessee. As an Assistant Public Defender, he worked in each of the four criminal divisions of Sessions Court and all three divisions of Criminal Court. During this time, A.Z. represented clients charged with everything from Misdemeanors like Public Intoxication to Felonies such as Theft, Assault, and various drug offenses.
In his last three years of service as an Assistant Public Defender, A.Z. was assigned to the “DUI Division” where he successfully defended hundreds of clients charged with Driving Under the Influence and other related offenses. A.Z.’s success in that capacity was a major reason the partners of Oberman & Rice invited him to join their team.
A.Z. joined Oberman & Rice in 2014 and became Partner in 2017, where he continues to focus his practice on those accused of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) as well as other driving, alcohol, and drug-related crimes. He also defends those accused of other criminal and traffic offenses, as well as helping clients expunge their criminal record. He is proud to share the firm’s focus on providing exceptional service to its clients through legal, legislative, and scientific research.
A.Z. is a member of the American Bar Association, Knoxville Bar Association, and National College of D.U.I. Defense (where he is the State Delegate for Tennessee). He has also served on the Executive Board of CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) for Children – an organization aimed at giving neglected children in Knox County a voice in court and helping their families develop parenting plans to form a stronger and healthier family bond.

A Very Professional Group
I would highly recommend Arrin Zadeh and His staff. The Man told me what He could do and is a Man of his Word and got My charges dismissed.

Very Attentive, Responsive, Effective
Son made some bad decisions, and was arrested. Mr. Zadeh moved quickly to gather information and have the case dismissed within a few days. He went out of his way to accommodate our schedules. He was a blessing to a mom many hours away. I highly recommend him.

Our son received a D.U.I. while attending college and we were located 2 1/2 hours from Knoxville. Through on-line searches we contacted a few reputable law firms in the area and after interviewing them all, we decided to hire the Oberman & Rice Law Firm.

Review on Arrin Zadeh (AZ)
AZ was such a pleasure to work with. With this being my first DUI, he carefully explained the entire process in our first consultation meeting, from beginning to end, and made sure that I completely understood what was expected of each other. I appreciated AZ's diligence and patience, as he was alwa...
