Middle Tennessee Criminal Defense Attorneys

Being charged with a crime can turn your life upside down in an instant. One moment you’re going about your day, and the next, you’re facing questions about your freedom, your reputation, and what comes next. If you’re reading this, you’re probably scared, confused, and wondering what to do.

We get it. At Kane & Crowell PLLC, we’ve walked alongside hundreds of people who’ve found themselves in your shoes looking for a criminal defense attorney in Lebanon, Mt Juliet or Nashville area. We know how overwhelming this feels, and we’re here to help you navigate through it.

First, take a deep breath. Here’s what you need to do:

Stay calm. We know that’s easier said than done, but fighting with the police will only make things worse for you.

Don’t talk to anyone about your case except your lawyer. Not your spouse, not your best friend, not the nice detective who says they just want to “clear things up.” They’re not trying to help you—they’re trying to build a case against you.

Call us immediately. The sooner we get involved, the better we can protect you. Evidence needs to be preserved, witnesses forget things, and opportunities to help you slip away every day you wait.

Look, we could tell you we’re the best lawyers in Tennessee, but that’s not really helpful. Here’s what actually matters:

We know the local courts inside and out. We’ve been practicing here for decades. We know which arguments are the most effective and we know how to get things done.

You’ll actually talk to a lawyer, not a paralegal. When you call, you get one of us. When you have questions, you get real answers from someone who knows your case.

We fight hard. We’re not here to just take your money and plead you out. We investigate, we challenge bad evidence, and we negotiate aggressively. Sometimes that means taking a case to trial when the prosecutor won’t be reasonable.

We keep you in the loop. You’ll never wonder what’s happening with your case. We explain things in regular English, not legal jargon.

We’re here when you need us. Legal trouble doesn’t happen from 9 to 5. When you’re in crisis, we’re available.

Where do you practice? Throughout Middle Tennessee—, Wilson County, Sumner County, Trousdale County, Smith County, Macon County,and Jackson County. If you’re charged somewhere in this area, we can help.

What if I can’t afford a lawyer? Let’s talk about it. We offer free consultations, and we work with people on payment plans. Your financial situation shouldn’t determine the quality of your defense.

Should I just plead guilty and get it over with? Please don’t make that decision without talking to us first. What looks like a “simple” case often isn’t, and pleading guilty has consequences you might not have considered.

How quickly should I call? Today. Right now, if possible. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to help you.

If you’re facing criminal charges, you don’t have to face them alone. Call Kane & Crowell PLLC today for a free, confidential consultation. We’ll listen to your story, explain your options, and help you figure out the best path forward.

You made it this far, which means you’re taking this seriously. That’s good. Now let us help you protect your future.
