Satisfied client (small business owner)
We are moderately small family owned business and were facing a substantial lawsuit from a former employee. Kemp Brinson was fantastic in helping us get the claim dismissed very early in the process. He was extremely responsive and professional and we would plan to utilize him and the Bloodworth Law team in the future.

Exceptional Attorney!
"Lawyer Fights for You" is more than the website address of Reed's law firm; it is the essence of his representation. I had the good fortune to have been represented by Reed Bloodworth in a civil dispute, which he settled to my satisfaction. His depth of knowledge is accompanied by a determination to exceed expectations. He and his staff treat their clients like family, and as a result, I am proud to consider them part of mine.

Top-Notch!
I wish this had an option for 100 stars! Mr. Bloodworth is in a class all his own. I was in the midst of a highly complex matter involving my business and met with several attorneys regarding the issue. I stopped looking the moment I met with Reed. He has a near clairvoyant understanding of business litigation and outlined my options clearly and concisely. Furthermore, he kept me informed every step of the way and stayed ahead of the game throughout the case. Truth be told, it was fascinating watching him outmaneuver opposing counsel at every turn. I could not be more satisfied with the resolution of my case and with Mr. Bloodworth’s brilliant representation. His commitment to my lawsuit made me feel like I had a partner in the case, rather than someone simply going to court because they are getting paid. He has very much earned my unflinching recommendation to any and all my family, friends, and business associates in need of an aggressive, no-nonsense attorney. Simply put, if you want the best possible chance of winning your case, hire Reed Bloodworth.

Reed was professional, courteous, and diligent in achieving our company's desired outcome in a dispute. His legal knowledge was not only insightful is the dispute he represented us on but for a future case as well.
