Vehicle Assault and Vehicular Homicide

Aggressive Vehicular Homicide Lawyer in Nashville

A conviction of a serious traffic offense can result jail time. If you have been charged with vehicular homicide, you need a trusted attorney to protect your future and make sure your rights are protected.

Since 1994, the law office of Rob McKinney, Attorney at Law has vigorously defended clients against vehicular homicide charges in Tennessee. Our legal team practices exclusively in criminal defense and will effectively guide you through the criminal justice system.

Experienced Attorney Dedicated to Protecting Your Best Interests

Our founding attorney, Rob McKinney, has practiced exclusively in criminal defense since 1994. While in law school, he worked as a law clerk for the Seventh Circuit Court in Nashville and witnessed numerous DUI and vehicular homicide cases presented to the court.

Preparing an Effective Defense in Vehicular Homicide Cases

In any vehicular homicide case, the prosecutor must prove that alcohol was the proximate cause of the accident and the death. Just because you were involved in an accident while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is not sufficient to support a conviction of vehicular homicide.

With an inside perspective on the Tennessee court system, attorney McKinney knows how to effectively investigate each case to make sure no holes exist in the evidence. He also partners with investigators to determine the root cause of vehicle accidents.

If you have been charged with vehicular homicide or a drunk driving offense, attorney McKinney will review the facts to see whether your alcohol consumption caused the accident. For example, if someone walked in front of your car after leaving a party, you may not be at fault.

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
