PRACTICE AREAS

Estate Planning

Estate planning requires careful consideration and detailed analysis regarding an individual’s goals. Depending on these goals, a variety of instruments may be implemented to ensure that your wishes are carried out. Our firm assists clients in drafting and executing revocable or irrevocable trusts, as well as powers of attorney and living wills. 

Probate Administration and Litigation

If a beneficiary believes that a trust or will was executed by an individual who lacked testamentary capacity or was the victim of undue influence, the beneficiary may bring a will or trust contest action to remove a trustee or representative or to void the instrument altogether.

Family Law

Legal issues dealing with family matters may be especially sensitive. In Tennessee, spouses who are going through divorce proceedings must engage in mediation before courts will get involved. Mediation proceedings are private settings in which the parties are free to discuss issues such as child custody and visitation arrangements, spousal and child support, and the division of property. Obtaining legal representation for mediation, as well as any further legal action, may be vital in reaching a resolution that meets your needs.

Personal Injury

When the negligence of either an individual or company causes an injury, it can leave injury victims in debt and feel hopeless. You may have serious injuries that may be lifelong or fatal. These cases can be extremely complex and require evidence showing that a duty of care had been breached. What you need is an experienced personal injury attorney to guide you in the right direction and to help get the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
