Heroin Possession Charges in Tennessee

A few years ago, you probably never could have imagined that you or someone you love would be facing criminal charges for heroin possession or trafficking. Heroin, a drug once associated with street addicts, has entered the mainstream of American life.

If you are facing heroin possession or any drug charges, you need an Nashville heroin possession attorney who will fight for your interests. At May McKinney, we use our nearly 80 years of collective experience and a holistic approach to protect the interests of clients in the face of heroin possession charges. Tenacious and always willing and ready to go to trial, we seek the best result for every client we represent.

Defending Your Rights & Freedom in Heroin Possession Cases

Many people find themselves taking heroin after they become addicted to opiate-based pain relievers. Heroin becomes a substitute after the prescription runs out. In many cases, heroin is less expensive and easier to obtain than opiate-based prescription drugs such as OxyContin and Vicodin. Often, people taking the drug do not even know it is heroin until they are arrested.

Our Nashville heroin possession attorneys have been defending clients accused of drug crimes for decades. We will work hard to keep the focus of our clients’ cases on treatment rather than punishment. The consequences of a conviction can be devastating, affecting future employment, education, and other areas of your or your family member's life.

Our Nashville heroin lawyers have extensive knowledge of the law and criminal procedure, especially regarding drug search and seizure law. Search and seizure violations can play a critical role in drug cases, particularly if the police did not have a legal reason to stop the accused and conduct a search for drug evidence. We can use any flaws in the prosecution's case to potentially get the charges reduced or dismissed.

    "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.

    "Repeat offender facing time"
    When I got I hemmed up in Gallatin and caught two charges, I was told I was facing 180 days plus an extra 180-365 days serving time. I told my folks I was tired of taking chances with amateurs when It came to a legal defense lawyer. I initially called Frank Lannom's office, but they regrettably informed they did not practice in Sumner but they knew who did that was just as good and experienced. They gaveme the number to Mr. McKinneys office here. I called them up and Ms Savannah Edmonds met with me that day on a zoom meeting. I gave a very professional summarization of my charges , sentance they carried, as well as the exact figure they would charge. She even called me back to correct herself on something she said wrong. I thought that was exceptionally professional. Needless to say I knew May and McKinney were the lawyers I want defending me. It's easy to make back money. You can't get your time back. Anyway today was the first day of court with my Lawyer. And my first offer was "both charges dismissed" . Now you can't get much better than that. If you want to save money, take the amateurs and risk loosing your life, your name, your integrity or hire the professionals of May and McKinney and get results. Remember "you get what ya pay for" and with May and Mckinney it's well worth every penny !

    - Mark
    "Incredibly helpful"
    This was my first experience ever being accused of a crime and I was very nervous and scared. Rob and his staff were incredibly helpful, answering all of my questions and putting my mind at ease throughout the process. In the end, we were able to get everything dismissed successfully. Although in the grand scheme, my case was a relatively minor one, Rob always was there to help and it was clear that his knowledge and experience would be hard to find anywhere else. I would absolutely recommend Rob and his team to anyone looking for a defense attorney.
