Nashville Methamphetamines Attorney
Facing Charges for Operating a Meth Lab in TN?
Law enforcement departments in Tennessee seize approximately 2,000 meth labs per year, ranging from small "shake and bake" operations for personal use to larger operations that produce meth in quantity for sale. Only Missouri has more meth lab busts than Tennessee.
If you have been arrested for operating a meth lab, the odds may seem stacked against you. It is important to remember, however, that you still have the right to legal counsel. You are also protected against illegal searches and seizures by law enforcement. If your constitutional rights were violated in any way during or after the investigation or your arrest, this could be used to render evidence inadmissible or even dismiss your charges altogether.
Find out more about your rights in the face of meth lab charges by contacting May McKinney at (615) 265-6383. Our seasoned Nashville methamphetamines attorneys defend clients across Tennessee.
Meth Manufacturing Penalties in Tennessee
Tennessee views meth as its most serious drug problem. As a result, the penalties can be extremely harsh, even for a first-time offense. For example, if you are convicted of operating a meth lab in a house where there is a child under the age of eight, you could face 15-25 years in prison.
You could face up to 1 year in prison and a $1,000 fine for merely purchasing more than 3.6 grams of pseudoephedrine per day or 9 grams in 30 days (a crime called smurfing).
Challenging Meth Lab Arrests & Charges in Franklin, Brentwood, Mount Juliet & the Surrounding Areas
If you think you may be suspected of meth manufacturing or if you have already been charged with this offense, May McKinney may be able to help. Our Nashville methamphetamines attorneys can promptly launch an investigation designed to test the state's evidence against you. We can use our extensive knowledge of drug search and seizure law to determine if law enforcement officers may have violated your constitutional rights. If so, we could get the charges either reduced or dismissed.
If you are contacted by law enforcement, you should not say anything until you consult with an experienced lawyer. You could inadvertently give police the probable cause they need to arrest you.

"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 !- Robert F.

"Simply Awesome"
I appreciate absolutely everything that you and your team have done for me. I could not have made a better decision than to have your representation during this horrific time in my life. Along the way, I feel like I was educated about the process and felt at ease with every step. The due diligence that was done on your behalf was top tier and goes without saying, simply awesome! The only regret I have is not coming to your first. You have my full support of referrals to anyone I hear that needs a great defense team in their corner, because I sure did! Again, Thank you!
