You Don’t Need to Know the Legal Term for It.
These are the areas I handle. If you’re not sure which one fits your situation, or whether it’s more than one. That’s normal. Start anywhere below, or just reach out and I’ll point you in the right direction.
Divorce
Whether contested or uncontested, divorce is one of the most significant transitions you’ll go through. I handle it with strategy, honesty, and a steady hand from start to finish. Contested Divorce · Uncontested Divorce
Custody
Parenting plans, child support, paternity, and modifications. Every decision is made with one question driving it: what does the right outcome actually look like here? Child Support · Parenting Plan Modifications · Paternity
Adoption
Adoption is about making permanent what love already made real. Whether you’re pursuing step-parent adoption or navigating termination of parental rights, I handle these with the care and weight they deserve. Step-Parent Adoption · Termination of Parental Rights
Juvenile Law
When a minor is facing juvenile court charges or DCS involvement, families need strong representation quickly. I know the juvenile system and fight to protect your child’s future. DCS Defense
Estate Planning
Not having a plan is a plan. Just not one you chose. Wills, powers of attorney, conservatorship, and guardianship put you in control of what happens to the people you love. Wills · Conservatorship & Guardianship · Powers of Attorney
Mediation
In Tennessee, mediation is required before most contested divorce and custody cases go to trial. You’re going through this process either way. I make it as clear and productive as possible.

Not Sure Where You Fit?
You don’t have to figure that out on your own. Tell me what’s going on, and I’ll help you find the right starting point, even if that turns out to be a referral somewhere else. I don’t take every case, and I’ll be straight with you about that.
The first step is a conversation, not a commitment. A 30-minute phone consultation is $100. A one-hour in-person consultation is $200. If you retain me within 90 days, the consultation fee is credited toward your retainer.
