I am a native of Sparta, Tennessee, and have always planned to remain in the Upper Cumberland area. My office and home are located in Cookeville, centrally located so that I may easily represent my clients in the surrounding counties. I'm passionate about what I do, and I am always looking for ways to improve my clients' experiences during what can be a stressful and painful process.. I am the only attorney in the Upper Cumberland area to become a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst. This required specific coursework and testing to gain an in-depth understanding of the financial consequences of divorce. I did this so I can better understand my clients' options, and I could then provide clients with options. Educated clients are empowered clients.. I also have attended Collaborative Divorce training. This process is not new, but is under-utilized in the Upper Cumberland. As a trained Rule 31 Listed Family Law Mediator, I also have more in-depth experience when I accompany clients to their own mediations.. My office serves all the cities in the Upper Cumberland region, including Cookeville, Sparta, Livingston, Gainesboro, Crossville, Celina, and the surrounding counties.
