Nashville Criminal Defense and DUI Attorney | Co-Founder of Herbert & Lux

Eddie Herbert is a Nashville criminal defense and DUI attorney and co-founder of Herbert & Lux. Before establishing the firm, he worked at the Davidson County Public Defender's Office, where he represented people facing criminal charges in General Sessions and Criminal Court. His experience includes cases ranging from misdemeanor citations to murder charges.

That work shaped Eddie's approach to criminal defense. He believes every person deserves a serious defense, regardless of the accusation or how difficult the case may appear. At Herbert & Lux, he brings that same commitment to clients facing DUI charges and other criminal allegations throughout Middle Tennessee.

Criminal Defense Experience in Davidson County Courts

During his time at the Davidson County Public Defender's Office, Eddie worked directly with people whose freedom, employment, and futures were at stake. He gained experience navigating criminal proceedings, examining prosecution evidence, and representing clients facing a wide range of charges.

Eddie also practiced with a Nashville law firm serving counties throughout Middle Tennessee before co-founding Herbert & Lux. His background gives him firsthand experience with the legal process from initial court appearances through more serious criminal proceedings.

Eddie Herbert's Approach to DUI Defense

DUI cases can involve disputed traffic stops, field sobriety tests, police recordings, and breath or blood testing. Eddie approaches criminal defense by examining the specific facts rather than assuming the officer's account tells the whole story.

At Herbert & Lux, the attorneys have obtained DUI dismissals and reductions in cases involving unlawful police conduct, disputed testing evidence, and dashcam footage. Those results reflect the firm's approach to examining the evidence and challenging allegations when the facts and law support it.

Working Directly With Eddie Herbert

Eddie believes clients deserve to know what is happening in their cases and why certain decisions matter. He takes time to explain the charges, possible outcomes, and legal options so clients can make informed decisions about their defense. His approach is personal as well as practical. Eddie recognizes that a criminal charge affects more than a court date, and he works to build the kind of attorney-client relationship where people feel comfortable asking questions and discussing their concerns.

Beyond the Courtroom

Eddie moved to Nashville more than a decade ago and has made Middle Tennessee his home. Outside his legal practice, he enjoys traveling with his wife and spending time with their daughter. His practice includes criminal defense, DUI defense, personal injury and wrongful death matters, civil litigation, and real estate law.
