About Law Firm
There are many criminal defense attorneys in Nashville. Why should you hire me?
Experience
I am a former prosecutor. I was an assistant district attorney for 15 years. I handled serious and complex cases: child physical abuse cases, child sexual abuse cases and child homicide cases. For the last 10 years, I have been on the other side, representing clients charged with serious offenses. I have tried more than 200 cases in front of juries.
Commitment
Representing a client effectively is hard work. It requires spending time with the client, visiting the scene, talking to witnesses, researching legal issues and thinking creatively about the best defense. To be effective, a criminal defense attorney must know more about the facts of the case and more about the client than the prosecutor.
Communication
I want my clients to understand everything about their cases. This means that I am available to talk with clients and answer their questions. I don't believe that a criminal defense attorney should be available only Monday through Friday. For that reason, I provide clients with my cell phone number so that they may call me after hours on weekends.
I take pride in the work I do. For me, there is nothing more satisfying than helping a client obtain the best possible resolution for his case.
Attorney Bernie McEvoy proudly serves the surrounding Nashville communities through professional legal counsel and advice in DUI, domestic violence and other criminal defense matters.

Mr. McEvoy is an extremely talented attorney. I was falsely accused by a relentless individual with an agenda. He even met with me and my family on Saturdays and Sundays to diligently prepare for a tough case that needed to be perfectly navigated. His polite yet aggressive demeanor all the way to closing arguments in the courtroom was very impressive to see, and it led to a complete exoneration for me. He has to be the best in Nashville.
Mr. McEvoy is a lifesaver!!!!! He helped my fiancé and I during a tremendously difficult time. He treated us with respect and kindness from the very beginning. He provided excellent advice, communicated with us well, and was very knowledgeable about the situation. Bernie was very responsive and patient. He helped us navigate a very challenging situation that we could never have managed on our own. He’s given us the freedom to move forward, and we are eternally grateful.
Bernie is a phenomenal defense attorney. His well-established career has yielded a strong yet calm presence in the courtroom. His command of the law is impressive; he will always find options to ensure you're on the path to a positive outcome. It's clear he's respected by his colleagues and peers with an observable gravitas that should put you at ease as his client - prosecutors/DAs, other defenders, judges, baliffs, and court staff all have positive things to say about him, unprompted. When having to defend yourself legally, it's easy to have negative feelings. Bernie never made me feel anything but supported. He sticks with you even if the proceedings take months or years, and will ensure you're informed all along the way. I'm happy to say he secured a positive outcome for me through a years-long legal battle. Bottom line, Bernie McEvoy is the right choice if you need a defense attorney in Nashville.
Bernie helped me immensely with my situation. He is knowledgeable and extremely pleasant to work with. His great reputation and aptitude of the law demonstrate why he is an adept attorney. My case was reduced significantly, and I have Bernie to thank for that. Nobody wants to find themselves in a situation to need an attorney, but if you do I highly recommend Bernie McEvoy. Thank you Bernie.
