I have over 20 years of practice experience in Tennessee and Georgia.  I am a Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 31 Listed Family, Civil and Domestic Violence Mediator.  I am a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) securities arbitrator, U.S. Department of Justice/Key Bridge Foundation mediator in matters arising under the Federal Americans With Disabilities Act, and admitted to all courts serving East Tennessee and Northwest Georgia including the U.S. Supreme Court.  I am trained in collaborative law and practice as well as in military divorce and Veterans Administration benefits claims.  Before becoming a lawyer, I was in hospital and medical staff administration.  I bring a practical approach to the practice of law and work hard as a team with my clients, seeking to attentively listen to their concerns, goals and desired outcomes.  To the fullest extent of the law and considering my clients' facts, I work hard to achieve their goals and desired outcomes.

I have learned over the time I have been a lawyer that good people fall on hard times and make mistakes.  When they do, they need someone who will be there for them to help them out.  I have also learned that law enforcement and the district attorney do not necessarily fill the role most of us were taught they filled when we were growing up.  Abuse of power is rampant, and many in our system have forgotten their role is to seek justice, not exact vengeance.. My education and background has led me to want to help people that make mistakes and protect them from those who want vengeance, not justice.  I enjoy fighting for my clients and making sure I do whatever it takes to legally and ethically protect them and advance thier interests.

I have tried a number of jury and bench trials to verdict and prepared briefs for and presented oral argument to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, the Tennessee Supreme Court, and the Tennessee Court of Appeals on many occasions.
