DUI Blood Tests
Nashville DUI Blood Test Attorneys
At May McKinney, we have a saying that there is only one organization you should give blood to — the Red Cross. Although law enforcement may pressure you to submit to a DUI blood alcohol test, doing so is usually not in your best interests.
If you have already taken a DUI blood test, however, do not give up hope. The test results are not infallible. In fact, in today's world of advanced forensic science, there are more defenses against DUI charges than ever before.
Serving clients in Nashville and throughout Tennessee, our DUI defense attorneys at May McKinney know what it takes to challenge blood test evidence and other aspects of a DUI, BUI, or underage DUI case. We have almost 80 years of collective legal experience and frequently represent clients in state, federal, and juvenile courts across the state.

Challenging Blood Test Results
May McKinney has the skill and legal knowledge you are looking for in your case. In taking on a new DUI case, we will investigate every aspect of the blood draw and determine if there are any flaws in the prosecution's case.
Such flaws may include:
- Your blood was drawn by an unlicensed person.
- The testing equipment was not properly calibrated.
- Your blood was not drawn within the correct timeframe.
- Your blood sample was not stored or preserved correctly.
- The sample was fermented, resulting in a higher blood alcohol content (BAC).
- The proper chain of custody procedure was violated.

"Stop searching for an attorney. Stop worrying about your legal woes. Stop wondering if your attorney actually cares and start letting Rob McKinney handle your case."In a nutshell, all of the glowing reviews that I read on this site are 100% spot-on. I had a DWI case reduced to reckless driving. Rob is a fighter and would have battled for a full dismissal if I had requested him to but after some discussion I concluded that accepting the lesser charge was the right move for me. Furthermore, Rob was able to file a motion and get the judge to dismiss my probation obligations once I finished the mandatory classes. It was the best possible result for me. I also need to mention that Karen, the front end of the firm, is spectacular and plays an important part in the firm's success and client experience. She responds to communications promptly and keeps you informed of what's happening as required while Rob and Shyanne stay busy getting the legal work done. Seriously, if you're searching for representation and nervous because you don't know who you can trust and rely on, just stop. I promise you these reviews you've been reading (just like I did before I contacted the firm) are accurate and you can quickly take some of the weight off of your shoulders by having a meeting at May & McKinney and retaining them for your case.- D.T.

"Mr. McKinney is listed with Super Layers for a reason!"In the darkest and most ashamed moment of my life, Mr. McKinney with all of his kindness, encouragement, and unsurpassed knowledge for the Tennessee law was by my side. I am nearly 60 years old and never had a conflict in my life, let alone one that involved an uncontrollable emotional reaction, that resulted in a physical altercation. Yet under the influence of prescribed drugs for insomnia, anxiety management, and alcohol, I made a grave mistake which resulted in Class C Aggravated Assault Felony Charge. To complicate matters, I am not a resident of Tennessee. It goes without saying that Mr. McKinney has earned the utmost respect as a top tier lawyer from the Tennessee court system. He was able to professionally articulate my case to the court, emphasizing that I risk losing employment, showed that I voluntarily turned myself in, and that I was a first-time offender. The court listened to him and as a result he was able to negotiate terms that far exceeded my expectations. I spent a lot of time between my arrest and court appearance researching the standard outcomes for an aggravated assault charge in the State of Tennessee, and based on what I read, I expected the worst judgement to be passed down. Mr. McKinney however worked with the court system to not impose jailtime and an opportunity to have the charges expunged from my record. I know that I will forever be ashamed and grieve over the event, but he was able to provide me with the opportunity to work the rest of my life making this right to the victim, my family, and others that were emotionally impacted. Mr. McKinney is worth his weight in gold. He knows the law. He is respected. He is highly skilled as a lawyer. He is the very best. I only wish I met and got to know of him under better circumstances.- SB
