College Students DUI A Team Who Will Tenaciously Defend You Every Step of the Way

State College DUI Attorney Nashville, TN

Helping College Students Charged with DUI in Mount Juliet, Brentwood & Franklin, TN

A DUI conviction can put an end to a college or university student's dreams for the future. With a criminal record, an otherwise outstanding student may not be admitted into medical school, law school, or another graduate school program. Grad students with DUI convictions on their records may not be able to obtain professional licenses after they complete their degrees.

College and university students invest a great deal of time, energy, and money into obtaining a higher education. A DUI conviction can make the degree much less valuable. When the stakes are this high, it is important to discuss your options with a DUI defense lawyer who is experienced in representing college and university students.

    "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 !

    "Look no further, Rob McKinney is the defense attorney you need."
    As a LEO wife, I was served with a frivolous OP from an estranged step family member. With the possibility of my husband not being able to process any firearms in our household, Mr McKinney's understanding the severity of the situation, Rob took the time to investigate and prepare for the hearing. With that said, Rob absolutely destroyed the petitioner and witnesses on the stand. It was worth the time, money and stress to see Rob in action. If the need ever arises in the future, Rob will always be our first call. You cannot go wrong putting your trust in Mr. McKinney.
    - Tara

McKinney law helped me navigate and overcome difficulties that I am still astounded by. Even through these stressful times, you were there for me and my family. I will not hesitate to recommend or if ever needed have you represent me again. I will certainly let anyone I know, that you and your team are the best hands down! Thanks again, Rob! Your assistance and representation were completely amazing!
