"There are precious times in our lives when we are blessed with people in our life who make a difference. Although at times we may not have the right words to express just how grateful we are, we truly are grateful. God has brought you into our life, and we are forever thankful for you and all that you have done. Even if at times we may not say so. The picture included is of our daughter. We believe that it is she who will benefit the most from what you have done for us. Because of you, her father will be returned to her soon. That is why I would like to say thank you. People may not take the time to acknowledge the great work that you do or have done, but we want you to know that we do."

Thank You So Very Much - Nathan

Thank you so very much Rob,

My regret is that we met under such a circumstance, my second regret is that we did not seek you sooner. Joshua's father did something good, he introduced us to you. You have been so important to us, some good comes from every misfortune, we were able to know you, and appreciate your talent.

Maybe Josh will further his education, if so this money will help him.

We will never forget you,
Thank you Robin,

Attorney Rob was the attorney I hired to defend me for a DUI arrest I experienced in 2007. It took place in a TN county that is notorious for refusing to plead down DUI's to lesser charges under any circumstances, and for insisting on nothing less than at least the minimum sentencing requirements for this offense. (Williamson) Upon the very first viewing of my "arrest tape" that we were finally allowed to see - along with the arresting officer, Rob was able to spot the officer giving me a bad command, starting me out on the wrong foot. Rob, himself, has been through field sobriety courses, has achieved certification, and knows the correct procedures the officers should follow. When he pointed this out to him, the officer was evidently rattled enough to realize that he had even more to lose than just the case if it went to trial. This one factor influenced heavily the outcome of my case. Rob was able to help me plead to a lesser charge of reckless driving, with no jail time, and 6 months of probation. I thoroughly believe that if Rob had not brought this to the attention of the officer during our viewing of the tape, we might have had to go through an even more protracted period of having to wait, and then go through a stressful trial. My case, otherwise, was one that most people, with untrained eyes, would view as "borderline." I did not deserve to be penalized to the degree that the county of Williamson was set on, and Rob McKinney made sure that it did not happen. I highly, unreservedly, recommend Rob McKinney to assist you in your DUI case. He is fierce and fearless when it comes to supporting his clients. July 23, 2008
