In December of 2018, I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor’s degree from Tennessee Technological University. The following August, I started law school while working full-time.

In 2023, I graduated from the Nashville School of Law in May and was admitted to the Tennessee Bar in October. My role in the firm transitioned to an Associate Attorney for our criminal defense team. I am a member of the Tennessee Association of Criminal Defenses Lawyers and the Tennessee Bar Association.. I believe that hard work is required to provide clients with the best representation for their case. No matter the case or the legal issue, the objective is to always be an advocate for the client’s needs and do what is best for the client.

I was born and raised in rural Tennessee. After attending college at Middle Tennessee State University and law school at Belmont University, I am glad to be back home working out of Lebanon, Tennessee. I enjoy golfing, banking, classical music, and the Nashville Predators.

I started practicing law in 2009 after 12 years in Law Enforcement and working within the Juvenile Courts.

I began working as a law clerk for Lowery, Lowery & Cherry, PLLC in July of 2013.  This firm, primarily dedicated to representing individuals charged with criminal offenses, afforded me the opportunity to hone my skills as a litigator and learn from three of the best in the criminal defense community.  Under Messrs. Jack Lowery, Sr., Jack Lowery Jr., and Jeff Cherry, I have had the opportunity to participate in jury and bench trials, argue motions to suppress, draft appellate briefs to the Courts of Appeals and Criminal Appeals, petition the Tennessee Supreme Court and argue in front of the Court of Appeals.. In 2024, I transitioned to the Law Office of Thomas Maynard.  Here, my areas of practice have largely remained unchanged.  I still enjoy representing individuals in family law, criminal law and general civil litigation.. I was born and raised in a small community North of Lansing, Michigan.  In 2004, I moved to Tennessee to complete my undergraduate at Austin Peay State University.  During this time and for several years after, I worked exclusively in health care.  I began law school in 2010, looking to be better and improve the quality of life for my family and myself.  I finished my legal education at the Nashville School of Law in 2015, graduating second in my class and awarded the Moot Court Award for the best participant in moot court.. My wife of more than 15 years has been with me the entire journey.  Together we have four children (three boys and one girl) and live in between two of Tennessee's finest cities, Mount Juliet and Lebanon.

I began my career representing large corporations, so I know the lengths they will go to in order to undercut an injured party's claim and to ensure the company's bottom line is protected. I now practice as a trial attorney protecting people injured by the negligence of others, whether by a vehicle accident, aviation disaster, or a disability. My clients' best interests are the important bottom line and that makes being an attorney worthwhile to me.

I am an eager attorney with a focus on helping my clients achieve fiscal security and a general sense of ease through proper estate planning.  This process requires an attention to detail and an understanding for the various circumstances that people often find confusing or difficult to overcome.  By making a plan early, the difficulty of these situations can often be easily mitigated.. When I am not actively pursuing a prudent plan that satsifies my clients life planning objectives, I enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking with my dog, fishing, camping, and hunting.

I am an 8th generation Wilson Countian. I was raised outside of Lebanon on a working tobacco and cattle farm.  I was educated in the Wilson County School System, and graduated from Lebanon High School in 1996.  I graduated cum laude from Cumberland University in 2000 with a BA in Criminal Justice and Public Administration, and a minor in Psychology.  I graduated from Nashville School of Law in 2005.. I am dedicated to my family, community, and clients, and strive to provide professional, caring, and expert legal services.

For more than twenty years,  I have devoted my practice to trial work, specifically work that involves representing and helping families.. Much of my work centers on divorce and custody.  Divorce is a uniquely personal experience.  I help my clients navigate through this difficult time in their lives with dignity, respect, and compassion.. In my adoption practice, I represent adoptive parents, biological parents, and step parents in private and agency adoptions.   For all matters, I help my clients identify their goals and determine how best to achieve them.

As Founder of Keith Williams Law Group, I dedicate my practice to helping everyday people and their families in accident, injury and wrongful death cases.  I am certified as a Civil Trial Specialist by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. I am honored to be a frequent lecturer at legal seminars and webinars to attorneys in Tennessee and across the country.. I am actively involved in a number of legal organizations that work to maximize the rights of injured people.  Nationally, I am an Chair-Elect of the AAJ Aviation Section as well as a member of the Public Justice Foundation.  Locally, I am on the Board of the Tennessee Association for Justice (TAJ), serve on the Executive Committee and Board of Governors of the TAJ, a member of the TAJ Circle of Advocates, and serve as Co-Chairman of the TAJ Legislative Committee.  I also a contributing member of Lawyers Involved for Tennessee.. Most important to my clients - I am an experienced and battle-tested trial attorney with significant courtroom experience, having tried hundreds of cases in front of a judge or jury and obtained millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for my clients.  I have obtained numerous substantial verdicts, including a $6,200, verdict believed to be the largest ever obtained in Sumner County, Tennessee.  In addition to courtroom successes, I have also negotiated hundreds of significant settlements for clients across Tennessee and across the country from California to Pennsylvania.. For example, I represented the estate and minor child of one of the victims of the Comair Flight 5191 crash in Lexington, Kentucky.  During that lengthy litigation—which involved dozens of plaintiffs, numerous defendants, and countless other attorneys—I was actively involved as part of the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (which guided the litigation for the various Plaintiffs) and served with a group of select attorneys chosen for the Plaintiffs’ trial team. I also recently represented a family whose child was severely injured in a trucking accident. We were able to prove not only liability from the trucking company, but also 3rd party broker liability from the freight broker. That case settled for a Confidential amount.. Although courtroom victories are exciting, the most gratifying part of my work is seeing the benefits that my clients receive as a result of the settlements and/or trial victories achieved. Everyone who is injured in an accident deserves the right to a dignified and secure recovery and my passion is fighting to ensure they get it.
