Over the last quarter-century, our firm has stood beside clients facing the full weight of the state and federal justice systems, on charges ranging from misdemeanor offenses to the most serious crimes carrying the heaviest penalties. We’ve defended rights and freedoms and fought for fairness. We have earned reputations for fearlessness in the courtroom and thoughtfulness in the law. Our attorneys have not only won trials; they’ve served our community, challenged systemic overreach, and led with principle.

Our collective strengths include diverse backgrounds from outstanding academic institutions and recurring peer review recognition through Martindale Hubbell, Best Lawyers in America, and Mid-South Super Lawyers. We hold memberships and recognition through the American Inns of Court and at the National and Tennessee Associations of Criminal Defense Lawyers, and have been consistently immersed in legal governance at local and state bars.  Collectively, our lawyers are admitted to practice in all state courts and applicable federal courts, including the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court.

We take pride in providing this realm of experience, stability, and respectability to the defense of citizens accused of criminal offenses in Tennessee. We are exceptionally skilled and experienced criminal trial lawyers who uphold the American value of “innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt” on behalf of each client we represent.
