Firm: Matthews Law

Criminal defense is my art and craft. I have handled many criminal defense cases ranging from small misdemeanors to Violent Class A Felonies like Aggravated Robbery Acting in Concert and Attempted Murder. My clients have been so content with the negotiated settlements, dismissals, and nolle prosequi I've obtained on their cases that 100% of them have decided that they did not need or want to have a trial. In the poverty stricken city now rated by Forbes as America's second most violent city, I strive to provide Criminal Defense services at affordable flat fixed rates.

Firm: Katherine Oberembt Law PLLC

After graduating from Yale Law School in 2012, Katherine Oberembt moved to the Bluff City and began a career defending the people of Memphis and Shelby County. For more than a decade, she has represented clients charged with all levels of criminal offenses, with a particular focus on serious felony charges, including First Degree Murder. Time and time again, Katherine has achieved favorable outcomes for her clients, including dismissals, by filing comprehensive and innovative motions, marshalling expert witnesses in her clients’ defense, and artfully negotiating advantageous settlements. But when negotiation fails, Katherine — a skilled trial lawyer with a history of favorable verdicts, including acquittals — isn’t afraid to take your case to trial.. Any encounter with the criminal legal system is disruptive and disconcerting: Katherine prioritizes communicating with her clients and guiding them through the legal process with empathy and compassion. Katherine knows that every single person who encounters the criminal legal system has dreams, hopes, ambitions, and people who depend on them. Whether appointed or retained, she fights to achieve the outcomes her clients desire and deserve.

I am a licensed Attorney in the State of Tennessee.  I love the legal profession because it gives me the opportunity to help people in their time of need. Whether in the realm of criminal defense or civil litigation, I enjoy finding solutions to my client's problems.. I received my B.A. degree at the University of Memphis, and my Juris Doctorate at the Nashville School of Law.  During Law School, I worked with the State Attorney General’s office where I conducted Preliminary Hearings in Criminal cases under a special license granted by the Tennessee Supreme Court.  I also was employed with the State Legislature where I summarized bills for House and Senate members.. I began my legal career with the Glankler Brown, PLLC firm,  where I practiced both Civil and Criminal Litigation since 1998. I am very fortunate and proud to have been associated with such a firm. Upon my separation as Special Counsel in 2011, I moved to Las Vegas, NV and acquired a Real Estate License where I invested time in finding and negotiating strategic real estate investment deals. I relocated back to Memphis in 2015 to open my own office, as well as be with my family and spend time at my farm. I thoroughly enjoy the practice of law.. On a personal note, I am passionate about many different things such as Law, Real Estate, horses, and the occasional game of Texas Hold 'Em. Above all else, I am deeply committed to my Catholic faith, my daughter, and my family.
