I grew up in Cookeville, Tennessee where both of my parents worked in factories. I saw my parents work hard to get by. I began working at the age of 15 and continued to work at nights and on weekends while earning a college degree.. I graduated from Maryville College with a degree in Sign Language/Interpreting and worked in this field for a few years. While going with my hearing-impaired clients to see their lawyers I noticed my clients were not treated with the respect and dignity they deserved.. I wanted to do things differently. After I got my law degree from the University of Tennessee I began representing people on their claims for Social Security disability benefits.. I have represented thousands of clients at hearings before the Social Security Administration for over 20 years and I know what is required to be found disabled.

I graduated with honors from the University of Tennessee College of Law in December 1996 and thereafter was granted a license to practice law in April 1997.  Since that time I have practiced in private law practice and in a corporate setting.. From 2007-2013, I served as an Assistant Law Examiner for the Tennessee Board of Law Examiners.  In that position, I wrote and graded essays for each bar exam, and I also assisted in reviewing applications for licensure for moral fitness to be a Tennessee licensed attorney.. During my time as an attorney, I have practiced largely in the areas of bankruptcy (Chapters 7, 11, 12, and 13), business and commercial law, litigation, and civil rights.. My clients would tell you that I am personable, compassionate, zealous, intelligent, and loyal.  I give my clients straight-forward advice, and I always respond to their calls, e-mails and texts.  I am very technologically saavy.  I believe these qualities and attributes have led to my successes as an attorney.. Whether you are a business or an individual, I would love to help you out of your problems.

I graduated from the University of Tennessee College of Law, Cum Laude, in 2016. During my final year at UT Law, I was a student attorney in the Innocence and Wrongful Convictions Clinic. My time in the clinic was an amazing, educational experience that allowed me to help people unjustly imprisoned while learning from the mistakes of much more experienced criminal defense attorneys.. Since leaving UT Law and the legal clinic, I have continued my pursuit of helping those unjustly imprisoned and started helping those facing a possible conviction. I strive to provide quality legal representation that protects my clients' rights and ensures a fair, just result.

I believe the law can empower the powerless by providing a fair hearing on a level playing field for everyone regardless of wealth and social position. Unfortunately, sometimes the greatest benefit I can provide a client is to explain why I do not believe they have a case. I try to fairly evaluate each case I have the privilege to review and work to vigorously represent those clients I feel I can benefit. My philosophy as a lawyer is to use my legal knowledge to help people who need help.

I believe that all people who have been charged with a crime deserve to have their rights vigorously defended. I don't care if you've been charged with assault, DUI, a drug or a sex crime; no matter what charge you are facing, you still have rights. At my law firm, Scott C. Frith, Attorney at Law, I work with each client to devise an approach that best reflects that client's goals and priorities. As your criminal defense lawyer, I will do everything in my power to defend your rights and arrive at the best possible outcome to your situation. I also represent clients who need legal representation in a family law or personal injury matter.. Furthermore, I have a deep commitment to my community. I not only live in Knoxville, but also currently serve on the board of directors of the Halls High School Alumni Association, and write a monthly column on local politics and government for the Shopper-News. I am also a past president of Keep Knoxville Beautiful and of the Halls Business and Professional Association, and am a former member of the board of directors of the Legacy Parks Foundation. I take pride in my dogged work ethic, and truly take an interest in achieving the best possible outcomes for my clients. I like to fight, I like to win, and I like to help people of all walks of life who find themselves in a challenging legal situation.. If you've been charged with a crime, waiting to consult a lawyer or giving statements to police without legal counsel can be devestating. I provide free initial consultations to potential clients, so cost is not a factor in getting the initial advice you need to start protecting your rights. To schedule an appointment to discuss your situation, call my office at and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

I believe in hard work, exceptional client communication, and finding creative and cost-effective solutions.. Since joining Hodges, Doughty & Carson in September 1997, I have represented physicians, nurses, hospitals, assisted living facilities, mental health centers, and other healthcare providers in state and federal courts, as well as state administrative proceedings. I have acquired extensive experience in state and federal trial courts in Tennessee and Georgia, as well as appellate representation before the Tennessee Court of Appeals, the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Tennessee Supreme Court. I have also been admitted to practice before the US Supreme Court. I have also successfully represented doctors and nurses in administrative hearings before the Tennessee Board of Medicine and Board of Nursing. In addition to litigation, I advise health care clients on contracts and other medical-legal issues.. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Heather, and our two sons.
