Expungement Lawyers in Nashville

Begin Your Future with a Clean Slate in Nashville

A criminal record can haunt you for life, crippling your chances to obtain a job, receive a student loan, or buy a new home. Today’s economic climate makes it more important than ever to erase one’s criminal record to have a clean slate to show future employers and lenders.

Because of the Internet, your criminal background may be available to anyone curious enough to look. Computerized record-checking systems make it easy for employers, landlords, and lenders to quickly discover your criminal background.

At May McKinney, our Nashville expungement attorneys have dedicated our legal practice to defending those who have been charged with a crime. We believe in second chances and are available to try and clear your criminal record through expungement.

Find out if you’re eligible by contacting our Nashville expungement lawyers at (615) 265-6383. You and your family deserve a clean start.

Eligibility for Expungement in Tennessee: Find Out How

The expungement process takes 60 days to complete, and criminal convictions are not eligible for expungement until three years from the date of judgment. Although not every conviction can be expunged, if you have been convicted of a marijuana offense or another misdemeanor, you may be eligible to clear your record.

Our Nashville expungement attorneys can review your criminal record to see if you are eligible for an expungement. If you are, we will make sure your expungement petition is completed in an efficient and timely manner. We will also keep you informed of the legal process and make sure your legal record is properly sealed so no one else has access.

    "Best criminal lawyer in Nashville."
    I have met with Mr. McKinney during a very difficult time. I was welcomed with open arms. Aside from being the best lawyer, he is a very caring person. He accomplished the impossible in my case. He worked relentlessly and brought my charges down from a serious felony to a misdemeanor. Which is unheard of from what I understand. I would have faced deportation but with his expertise and commitment to my case now I can become a citizen. Rob McKinney and his team gave me a second chance in life! For that I am forever grateful.

    "Held my hand every step of the way in one of the most horrible times in my life."
    There are no words to express how grateful I am to Rob McKinney. He was there for me when I was confronted with a very difficult time in my life. Rob fought long and hard to prove the good of my situation. His team was behind me every step of the way during the long drawn out time frame. Rob never gave up on me and made me feel cared about through every obstacle we faced. I am very confident that he is now someone who I can call "a Friend" for life. The best word to use in description of Rob is AWESOME!
