We retained Harvey Law Services for my son. They was professional and kind from day one. I would highly recommend them for any legal problems you may encounter. This firm is the best!!! Mr Harvey was very thorough and helpful during this stressful situation. He secured us the best outcome and was quick doing it. You can’t go wrong with this law firm.
I wasn’t happy with my results at first, but now looking back, I realize Phil was a great lawyer to me and got me the best results that I could’ve probably had. He was also kind and empathetic and at times, very wise. I’m very grateful that he represented me and would highly recommend.
Phil and his team went above and beyond to fight a big charge against me. I was nervous as this was my first time getting into any trouble. Communication was amazing, and i understood everything I needed to do to help with keeping my freedom. My charge was reduced, giving me the ability to have a dismissal and expungement. I’m grateful and I’d highly recommend Mr.Phil. Thank you Phil Harvey 💯

I had a great experience working with attorneys Phil Harvey and Tyrese Perry on a recent speeding ticket case. Even though I was technically speeding, the officer had written the ticket using the wrong speed limit. Mr. Perry took the time to walk me through the entire situation, clearly explaining both the best- and worst-case scenarios so I knew exactly what to expect.
Thanks to their work, my ticket was dismissed, and I won’t be getting any points on my license. I highly recommend the whole team to anyone needing legal help!

“I’m scared this will ruin my reputation forever.”
“I can’t afford to let this one mistake define my whole life.”
“I’ve never been more terrified about what happens next.”
Focus on helping people in Tennessee navigate their criminal charges with confidence and clarity.
False accusations destroy families and reputations. We fight to clear your name and protect your relationships.
From simple possession to trafficking — we challenge illegal searches and fight for reduced charges or dismissals.
Serious charges require serious defense. We’ve handled everything from theft to assault with one goal: protecting your future.
Even “minor” can impact your job and reputation. We fight to minimize consequences and protect your record.
Arrested for DUI? Don’t talk to police without a lawyer. We protect your rights from the very beginning.
Shoplifting, burglary, embezzlement — we defend against all theft charges and work to preserve your reputation.
Phil cut his teeth as a Shelby County Public Defender, handling hundreds of serious cases each year — from misdemeanors to life felonies.
We’ve seen both sides of the courtroom. We know how prosecutors build cases, how investigators get confessions, and how to beat them at their own game.
While other lawyers take the first plea offer, we keep pushing. We negotiate harder, investigate deeper, and fight longer to get you the best possible outcome.
Don’t just take our word for it — read our reviews. Clients mention our staff by name because we treat every person with respect and fight like their future depends on it.
We tell you exactly what to expect, what we’re doing, and why. You’ll never wonder what’s happening with your case.
Facing criminal charges and jail is no time to guess about what to do. When you’re in crisis, we’re available to help.
The prosecution starts building their case the moment you’re arrested. Every day you wait gives them an advantage we have to overcome.
Before you say a word to anyone else, remember this: every word you say can be used against you in court. You need a lawyer.
We will be brutally honest with you. We’re going to give you the bad news, but we will also analyze exactly what the prosecution can and can’t prove. And we’ll build a strategy to stop them.
We investigate beyond what police provide — finding witnesses they missed, evidence they ignored, and holes in their story that create reasonable doubt.
We fight to preserve the life you’ve built. We want your kids to be proud, your career to survive, and your reputation to stay intact.
Knowledge is the first step to protecting your freedom and your future. Start here with trusted answers from our top-rated Memphis criminal defense team.
To lift or clear a bench warrant in Memphis, you typically need to appear in court — voluntarily if possible. A bench warrant is usually issued when someone fails to appear in court or violates a court order. Here’s what you can do:
Tip: Don’t try to handle this alone — showing initiative through a lawyer can show the judge you take the issue seriously and may reduce the consequences.
Yes — but only sometimes, and it depends on the stage of the case. In Tennessee, hiring a lawyer early — even before you’re officially charged — can make a major difference. Here’s how:
So, yes, early legal intervention can sometimes prevent charges, but it’s not guaranteed.
Absolutely. In Memphis and throughout Tennessee, police can begin an investigation based solely on someone’s accusation, especially in domestic violence, theft, or sexual offense cases.
The accuser doesn’t need to provide physical evidence to trigger an investigation — their statement alone may be enough to open a case.
That said, an accusation is not proof. The accuser will eventually have to come to court and give testimony under oath for a conviction, and in the meantime, police can try to gather additional evidence (text messages, surveillance footage, witness interviews, etc.).
It’s crucial not to speak to investigators without a lawyer, even if you know you’re innocent. What you say can still be used against you.
If you think you’re being investigated, contact an attorney immediately before speaking to law enforcement.
Generally, no — but there are exceptions.
Without a Warrant, Police Can Search If:
For phones, the U.S. Supreme Court (in Riley v. California) ruled that a warrant is required to search the contents of your phone in almost all cases.
Bottom line: You have the right to say no to a search. If police show up without a warrant, you’re not obligated to let them in or hand over your phone unless they meet a legal exception.
No. If the police ask you to come to the station but do not have a warrant or haven’t arrested you, you’re not legally required to go.
Police may say they “just want to talk” — but this is often part of an investigation.
Anything you say, even informally, can be used against you.
It’s far safer to politely decline and let a lawyer handle the communication.
If you receive a request or call from an officer, you should contact a criminal defense attorney before responding.
The prosecutors are already building their case against you. Every day you wait is another day they get stronger.
But you don’t have to face this alone.
