Best Results

Mr. Aaron and his staff did everything possible to get the best result in my DUI case. They kept me up to date through the entire process and in the end, the case got dismissed. I could not have asked for better results and would recommend Mr. Aaron to anyone charged with a crime in Middle Tennessee....

Great experience under the circumstances

At the consultation Doug was very upfront and honest with what was most likely going to happen. I followed his advice and in the end it turned out as good or better than I had hoped. He pursued all possible avenues and I felt that he and his great staff did their best for me. Always on top of everyth...ing. I would highly recommend this firm.

Doug did the impossible for me

I hired Doug Aaron after being charged for DUI. I had a squeaky clean record, but my BAC was a dismal 0.27, and I was certain that I was doomed. Doug managed to work out a deal with the DA and ALL charges were dropped in exchange for my plea of guilty to reckless driving. My case had unusual exten...uating circumstances, as most do, but he somehow accomplished a better outcome than I ever thought possible. Hiring him was the best decision I could have made. I have no intentions of ever needing a criminal defense attorney again, but if I did, I'd hire him again in an instant, and I will always encourage friends / family to do the same when they hit a run of bad luck as I did. Doug is very friendly, professional, and will give you all the time in the world to sit and discuss your case and help you understand the maze that is our legal system. One of the best things about him is that he will not fool you into paying him to attempt to win a lost cause. He's very honest and blunt, and will tell you his predicted outcome when you meet with him the first time. In my case, the result was far better than even his initial predictions, and I could not be happier and more relieved. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, Doug. You helped me put my life back together.

1st DUI

I had no idea what to expect. Doug Aaron walked me thru everything and kept answering my questions. It took over 8 months and Doug got the whole case thrown out with nothing on my record. There is no other lawyer for me. He is caring, very knowledgeable, and just a down to earth person. If you n...eed a lawyer just remember two words, Doug Aaron. Thanks Doug for all you did for me.

"I had the pleasure of receiving legal education from Doug at a recent seminar for the Tennessee Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. Doug is an amazing experienced trial lawyer. Recently, I had the pleasure of observing Doug argue during a preliminary hearing where the cop made a procedural mistake during his clients arrest. It was something I will never forget and left a lasting impression of excellence. Doug provides the highest level of representation to his clients. To say he knows the law well is an understatement. His clients are in excellent hands. I look forward to watching Doug in court again, as well as attending his legal education courses."

"I endorse Doug Aaron. I have known Doug Aaron since he began practicing in the area of criminal law and was a local assistant district attorney for the State of Tennessee. Doug grew up around the law and is from a family with an extensive law enforcement background. I have witnessed Doug over the years take his unique experience as a former state prosecutor and utilize his legal skills and knowledge to establish a criminal defense law practice that truly helps the individual client. Doug ethically and zealously protects the rights of the accused in each case that he handles on behalf of his clients."

"Doug is one of the top criminal defense lawyers in Tennessee. He is extremely knowledgeable of the law and works hard to ensure he is always on the cutting edge of DUI defense. He is a gifted litigator and highly respected in the legal community. Doug is my first call if I want to consult with another lawyer on a case. I work with him often and I believe his expertise in our field is unmatched in this area. If a family member or close friend was in need of an attorney in Coffee County or the surrounding areas, I would not call anyone but Doug. I hold him in the highest regards and endorse him without hesitation."

"Doug Aaron is one of the finest DUI and criminal defense lawyers in the country. Doug's ability to communicate with a jury is simply unmatched.

"It a privilege to write the very first recommendation for Attorney Aaron. At first, I was a little shocked that I was the first. His 13 plus years of trial litigation and strong work product certainly serves as evidence of his commitment. However, as I sat back and contemplated this, it it all made sense. See, Attorney Aaron is a proven trial litigator. A man and an attorney who knows how to get results. And as such, he doesn't need the recommendation of others, but rather it is through his daily example that his peers (such as me) learn by his example to litigate these most difficult cases. His reputation clearly exceeds the geographic boundaries of his state as evidenced by this Central Pennsylvania attorney not only knowing of his good works, but his willingness to issue an unreserved recommendation of him."
