I am one of those people who has been given the opportunity to get a wide range of experiences. Even though I was raised in Memphis, Tennessee, after completing high school, I was given the opportunity to live in Jerusalem, Israel, for the next nine years. During that time, I was fortunate enough to receive certification as a Rabbi and to meet my lovely wife.. During law school, I clerked with Justice Holder, a Supreme Court judge in Tennessee. Although that experience granted me extraordinary insight and understanding in a wide range of legal topics, it is not my greatest asset. I am blessed with the chance to continue to practice law in a firm with my father, Mr. Kenneth R. Besser, an attorney with more than 30 years of experience in the practice of law. I have been working with him for the past four years, which has granted me even deeper insight into both the legal field, but also into understanding and creating a rapport with client. I know of no other person more able to quickly become friends with anyone he meets.. I am dedicated to understanding my client and helping them to acheive their goals. I emulate the acumen, experience, and connection of those great attorneys I have enjoyed the pleasure to work with. I look forward to working with you.
