The Importance of Early Legal Intervention
When facing violent crime charges, time is of the essence. Early legal intervention can significantly impact the outcome of your case. By engaging a skilled attorney from May & McKinney, PLLC as soon as possible, you give yourself the best chance to build a robust defense. Our team understands the intricacies of the legal system and can help you navigate the complexities involved in violent crime cases.
Here are several reasons why early intervention is crucial:
- Preservation of Evidence: Key evidence can be lost or altered over time. Acting quickly allows us to gather and preserve crucial evidence that may support your defense.
- Witness Testimonies: Witnesses' memories fade, and their availability can change. Early engagement allows us to interview witnesses while their recollections are still fresh.
- Strategic Defense Planning: Starting your defense early enables us to develop a comprehensive strategy tailored to your specific situation, maximizing your chances of a favorable outcome.
- Negotiation Opportunities: Early intervention can open doors for negotiations with prosecutors, potentially leading to reduced charges or alternative sentencing options.
- Peace of Mind: Facing violent crime charges can be overwhelming. Having an experienced attorney by your side from the beginning can provide you with the guidance and reassurance you need during this challenging time.
Ensure Your Future is Protected With a Strong Defense
Many times, violent criminal charges such as aggravated assault or manslaughter result when the accused was simply acting in self-defense. With the facts on our side that you were threatened and felt in danger for yourself or others, we can work to show the prosecution and a jury that you used a reasonable amount of force to protect your well-being and/or the well-being of the people around you.
Our Nashville violent crime attorneys have handled a variety of murder cases. Not all have been capital cases, but we recognize the seriousness of a capital murder charge. If you are facing the death penalty, we don't have to tell you how important it is to have a Nashville violent crimes attorney who has access to the resources needed to prepare the best possible case. May McKinney provides cutting-edge representation, using mock juries to evaluate and strengthen your defense.

"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.

"The Only Choice for the Best Results"The case came during my senior year of college. It was the scariest moment of my entire life. I felt my career was over before it even started. I chose McKinney Law Firm because they are the Best of the Best. To have a prepared and knowledgeable defense, in a room where you feel guilty until proven innocent, is invaluable. Roger T. May's no non-sense approach was deliberate and strategic. The results of the case were better than I could have ever imagined. After the case was over, I went on to land a lucrative job, travel the world, and have had a very successful career. I truly believe McKinney Law Firm gave me a second chance at life. I am forever grateful for the team's care, urgency, persistence, and professionalism during a very difficult time. "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good." Thank you.- -Satisfied Client
