I worked my way through college at Tennessee Tech, and then through Law School at the Nashville School of Law, graduating in 1983.. OFFICES: I first opened my office in Monterey in August 1984 until July 1988, when I moved to Cookeville. My office was on the square for many years, but I purchased my own building in August 2011, located at 101 S. Jefferson Ave, Cookeville, Tennessee. I share office space with three other very good lawyers, and can refer you in-house, if necessary. I have two paralegals with many years of experience who work for me..

FAMILY AND DOMESTIC RELATIONS CASES: I have a number domestic relations cases, including but not limited to divorces, with and without children, divorce with large amounts of property and others where the parties were married for a long time and the court awarded alimony. I have had to appeal some cases along the way. I tried one relocation case, and the court denied the relocation, but on appeal the trial court was reversed. I, after winning a relocation case allowing my client to move with her child to Italy, defended an appeal of that case and the appellate court upheld the trial court. I have tried a number of termination cases, several have been appealed.. I have worked on child support, child custody, paternity, parentage, divorces with or without children, terminations of parental rights, adoptions, relocations case and more.. CRIMINAL PRACTICE: I practiced more criminal law when I first started practicing law. I have handled more than five first degree murder cases, and several death penalties.

I had one first degree murder reduced to reckless homicide, after hearing a motion regarding his confession. My most recent murder case was in 2012, my client was convicted of manslaughter.. I have appealed a number of criminal cases, some regarding search and seizure, confessions and sentencing.. MEDIATION: I am a Rule 31 mediator, with domestic violence certification. I don't handle as many mediation as I would like, but enjoy that part of my practice, as well.. I think you will find me hard working and ready to handle your case.. Marti Crawford

I focus my practice on trial litigation and handle a range of cases from criminal defense to complex business and family law cases. My work ethic anchors the reputation I have earned as an aggressive attorney. I am committed to quality representation of my clients, whether through contested court proceedings or through mediated solutions out of court.

With the assistance of my staff, managed by my Senior Paralegal Amanda Blankenship, my office is dedicated to helping others through difficult circumstances with appreciation, integrity, and strength to achieve positive results.. The description of “trial attorney” must be supported by actual experience. A successful trial or pretrial settlement begins with methodical preparation. I have prepared more than a thousand criminal, civil and family law cases for jury and bench trials that have proceeded to verdict and I have substantially participated in numerous other criminal and civil jury trials, as lead and co-counsel, which have proceeded to verdict. I have completed more than a thousand evidentiary and pre-trial hearings, as well as numerous post-trial or post-plea sentencing hearings.. I remain active in the community and in professional organizations. I am honored to serve as co-chair of the Legislative Committee for TACDL (Tennessee Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers) developing and implementing strategy for legislative advocacy that will benefit all citizens. I am humbled to serve my Alma Mater, Cumberland University, as an adjunct professor teaching Constitutional and Criminal Law and hope to use this platform to instill the same ethic of hard work I have used to help people through the practice of law. It was particularly rewarding to be recognized by Cumberland University with the 2013 Distinguished Young Alumni award, considering the many deserving alumni of that school. I was appointed by the Tennessee Supreme Court to serve as a Hearing Committee Member for the Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility and I currently still serve in this capacity. I have been named Mid-South Super Lawyer’s “Rising Star” for the past two years, an award bestowed on me by a panel of my legal peers.

Firm: Megan H. Wilson, Attorney at Law
9040 Garden Arbor Drive , Germantown , Tennessee 38139
Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
Megan House Wilson, a native Memphian, started her legal career working at a small firm in Memphis handling a variety of matters including landlord-tenant disputes, juvenile court matters, criminal defense and divorces. Megan enjoyed her work but quickly realized her passion was representing individuals entrenched in contested family law matters and in 2016 began focusing on serving clients in the areas of divorce, child custody, child support and post-divorce matters. The gratification Megan obtains from assisting her clients in oftentimes the most difficult time of their lives drives Megan to fiercely advocate for them in Court. Never one to back down from a fight, Megan quickly established herself as a rising star in the Memphis divorce bar regularly going toe to toe with some of Memphis’ so called “divorce sharks” and routinely obtaining favorable results for her clients at trial.. While she relishes the opportunity to take unreasonable litigants and attorneys to trial to achieve her clients’ desired results, Megan understands that protracted litigation sometimes only further fractures the family dynamic, particularly with minor children. Megan also appreciates that contested divorce can become expensive, and for that reason, she prides herself on always working closely with her clients from the outset of the representation to determine their objectives, assess the reasonableness of their goals and likelihood of success and establish a clearly defined game plan for moving forward. While some attorneys in the divorce bar plant unrealistic expectations in their clients’ minds, preying on their emotionally weakened state for their own financial gain, Megan listens closely to her clients and does everything within her power to resolve matters amicably outside of court when possible.. Megan brings the same tenacity and experience to her clients who are charged with criminal offenses and has extensive litigation experience representing individuals charged with misdemeanors and felonies in a variety of criminal defense matters. Being arrested or charged with a criminal act can be a terrifying experience, and Megan understands that sometimes bad things happen to good people. Megan also understands that her clients’ futures can be turned upside down if their cases are not dismissed, favorably resolved or result in acquittals. Megan’s clients come to her not only fearing potential jail time or having a black mark on their criminal records, but also fearing that their jobs may be at stake or potential job opportunities could be jeopardized as a result of the arrest. Understanding that the devil is in the details, Megan thoroughly analyzes her criminal clients’ defenses and works aggressively with state prosecutors to poke holes in their cases and expose “reasonable doubt” to achieve the best results for her clients.

I did not grow up in a military family, but I am often asked that question. Instead, my father was a college and professional football coach. I lived in ten (10) states from Mississippi to Washington state to California and New York with many states in between before I was eighteen (18) years old. Consequently, I appreciate all parts of our great country and the different backgrounds and experiences that people share with me every day. During my upbringing, I learned to adapt to many different situations. After all, the Southern culture is much different than California and New York.. I attended many different schools and had great difficulty deciding what I wanted to do when I grew up. I also really enjoyed athletics and had great dreams to be a professional athlete. I happened to be living in Buffalo, New York when I graduated from high school and started my college education at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York playing football. I finished my first degree at the University of Mississippi in English. I played football at Ole Miss for one (1) year as an ineligible transfer, but during that year I discovered the Greek life and focused on my social life.. After graduating from Ole Miss, the opportunities afforded an English graduate were not appealing to me. As a result, on the advice of my grandfather and uncle, I enrolled in the accounting program at Christian Brothers University in Memphis, Tennessee. Christian Brothers was the only school willing to allow me to complete the requirements for the Certified Public Accountants (CPA) exam in a calendar year. It was a difficult program, but I completed the necessary accounting hours and accepted an associate accountant position with Coopers & Lybrand (n/k/a PricewaterhouseCoopers) in Memphis.. My experience at Coopers & Lybrand was an incredible opportunity to learn about many different businesses and people. I traveled the United States providing auditing and consulting services to clients. However, as I worked on initial public offerings for our clients, I realized that the legal side of professional service was more suitable to my interests and professional development.. In 1997, I completed my law school education at the University of Mississippi. It was a great experience returning to school. In fact, I enjoyed school so much that I continued in a graduate English program upon my graduation from law school. I worked in the Dean of Students Office at the University of Mississippi and coordinated sorority rush while pursuing my Masters in English. It was a great Fall semester until my girlfriend (now wife) told me that I needed to get a real job.. My pursuit of a real job brought us to Nashville. I have called Nashville and Middle Tennessee home for almost eighteen (18) years. Our three (3) children keep us running all over town with their many interests.. My law practice has evolved over the years. I started my legal career defending physicians in medical malpractice cases. I worked in small litigation firm before making the decision to practice as a sole practitioner in 2003. I have been asked to represent people in all types of conflict situations including domestic relations, criminal defense, civil and commercial litigation and probate matters. I also assist people with estate planning and advisory services. My diverse professional background affords me the ability to share my knowledge with clients by delivering straightforward practical advice and solutions. I continue to maintain my Tennessee CPA license in addition to my Mississippi law license. I am still hoping for a case in Oxford during football season. Due to the nature of my practice, I rarely have a conflict that prevents me from discussing your case and I do not have any insurance or corporate clients to prevent me from providing an honest answer to your question.
