Top best E Lawyers in Knoxville | 1244 available

I am an attorney based in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving Knox and all surrounding counties. The focus of my practice is probate, trust administration, related litigation, and estate planning. I find this area of practice to be extremely rewarding, as my days consist of helping people find personalized and novel solutions to difficult problems. I absolutely enjoy the service aspect of this work, and value each day that I have the opportunity to help my clients.. I am a native of Anderson County, Tennessee, and I currently live in Oak Ridge. I am also a life-long Vols fan, who occasionally cheers for Vanderbilt.

I am a trial lawyer and have been one for 18 years. As such, I focus my practice on personal injury and criminal defense. When you are making a decision to hire an attorney, make sure that your attorney has the experience to take a case to trial and to the appellate level, if necessary. On average, I try about three jury trials and dozens of non-jury trials each year. I typically handle at least one appeal each year. Although most cases resolve themselves short of trial (through mediation or otherwise), you will get the best result when you are prepared to go to a trial.

I am a Tennessee attorney who has been practicing since 2012.  I currently handle estate planning, real estate law, and litigation, and have extensive experience with workers' compensation matters.  Prior to starting the Otten Law Firm, I worked with two statewide insurance defense firms and obtained my real estate license..  In my free time, I enjoy being a dad, biking, and spending time with my family in Knoxville.

I am a South Florida native who now lives near the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. I became licensed to practice law in Florida in November 2011 and actively practiced law in Florida until 2017. My family relocated to Knoxville, TN in late 2017 and I became licensed to practice law in Tennessee in July 2018. I have been working at the same Downtown Knoxville Firm (although we recently changed firm names) since May 2018. Presently, the majority of my work is Tennessee based but I am still actively licensed to practice in Florida.. My common practice areas are real estate matters, including but not limited to commercial leases, construction defects, easement and boundary disputes, and failure to disclose. I also handle a wide range of contractual matters including but not limited to contractual disputes, drafting contracts, and reviewing/negotiating contractual terms. Additionally, I work on personal injury and civil rights cases. I actively litigate cases in these areas of law.. On my free time, I like to spend time with my husband and our son. Together we enjoy going on the lake, neighborhood walks, and watching movies.. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. If you mention my Avvo profile, I will waive my consult fee.

I am a proud native born Tennessean and I am the third generation to live on my family’s farm. My roots trace back to my ancestor and the first governor of the state of Tennessee, John Sevier. While at the University of Tennessee College of Law, I concentrated my studies on advocacy and dispute resolution. Prior to law school, I worked as an agent with Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee. I understand the importance of communication, honesty, hard work, determination, and treating people the way you would want to be treated. I am honored to serve the legal needs of individuals and companies with interests in Tennessee throughout Tennessee.

I am a Knoxville, Tennessee native and graduated from the University of Tennessee College of Law. I joined Moore Ingram Johnson & Steele LLP (”MIJS”) in 2014 and work primarily in the firm’s litigation department. MIJS has 8 offices across the Southeast (and PA) and has the necessary resources to provide full service representation to our clients.. I currently reside in Knoxville with my wife Hana, son, Henry and our two dogs.

I am a father of 2 boys.  When I am not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my family.  I also enjoy spending time outdoors.  I am a private pilot.  I also enjoy college football, golf, and boating.  The thing I enjoy most about practicing law is helping people.  I enjoy guiding clients through the maze of civil litigation.

Honestly this is the hardest thing to write on this entire profile  I hate to “toot my own horn” because, to me, it can come across as sounding like I’m full of myself.  I can assure you that isn’t the case.  Still you need to know a little bit about me and my background to be able to determine if I’m a good fit for you.. Well for starters out of the 88 people who graduated in my law school class, I was ranked number 2.  I also graduate summa cum laude (the highest honors your can earn).  I’m also a published author.  My article, A Guide for Tennessee Criminal Defense Attorneys in Capital Sentencing Hearings: Representing Clients who were Acutely Intoxicated During the Alleged Crime and Clients with a History of Addiction, was chosen to be included in the book Perspectives on Capital Punishment in America which was edited by Charles MacLean.. I guess that means I’m suppose to be pretty smart.  More importantly I think it reflects that I’m not afraid to work really hard to accomplish my goals. If you hire me to represent you, I’ll work with the exact same determination to assist you that elevated me to the very top of my law school class.. Some things in life you can only learn from experience regardless of your educational background.  Sometime wisdom only comes with age.  I’ve been around the block a few times and I have the grey hairs to prove it!  I’d like to think that my maturity gives me a unique perspective that can assist my clients in finding a more positive outcome for their situation.. For almost 20 I was a professional magician.  Yes, you read that right.  I have literally performed thousands of magic shows for resorts, amusement parks, and corporations around the globe.  I think it goes without saying that I am very comfortable speaking in front of people.. So why is that important for you?. Well, being able to stand up in front of judges and juries and argue for your client is a big part of what lawyers do.  I believe that my ability to be comfortable “standing and delivering” in front of judges went a long way towards my partner and I advancing to the quarter finals of the Charleston School of Law’s National Moot Court Competition.  Don’t you want a lawyer that is comfortable arguing your case, and isn’t afraid to speak in front of a judge or jury?  I believe my prior experience in the entertainment business is a very powerful asset that I’d like to put to work for you.. I also have a fourth degree black belt in American Karate and a second degree black belt in Shotokan Karate-Do.  In 1993 I was ranked among the top 20 light weight black belt fighters in the nation by the North American Sport Karate Association.  I think this demonstrates that 1) I’m not afraid of a fight, and 2) I’m not easily intimidated.  If you hire me to represent you, I promise that I will fight just as hard for you.  I won’t be intimidated by the prosecution.  I won’t be afraid to fight for every legal benefit to which you are entitled.  I won’t be afraid to go to trial.
