Trial-Tested & Battle Ready
With over 16 years of trial experience, we have represented clients facing a wide range of felony charges throughout Middle Tennessee. We do not shy away from complex or high-stakes cases; we are known for challenging difficult evidence, using professional resources, such as forensic analysts, and using facts, science, and technology to build strategic defenses that can lead to acquittals, reduced charges, or dismissals.
Why Felony Charges Require Immediate Action
Felony cases often move quickly through the legal system, particularly when prosecutors are pressured to act. Law enforcement may already be gathering evidence or trying to question you. Any misstep, such as speaking without an attorney, waiving rights, or waiting too long to respond, can have serious consequences.
By retaining Nicholson & Hall PLLC early in the process, you gain more than legal counsel; you gain a defense team that is proactive, aggressive, and committed to protecting your future. We can help you avoid inadvertent mistakes when under police questioning. We understand how prosecutors build their cases and how to push back with solid, evidence-based strategies.
