A Trusted Legal Advisor

Words cannot not express how much I appreciate Brad's guidance, support, and counsel. Brad is unlike what most people would stereotype a lawyer of being; honest, sincere, knowledgeable and trustworthy. My sincere thanks goes out to him and I would recommend him to anyone I truly care for; that I kn...ew was going through a divorce or for that matter, any other legal issue.

The Best Attorney In Tennessee

Mr.Carter is by far the best attorney in the state of Tennessee! Dedicated to his work and kept me well informed about everything in my case. Highly recommended and a very satisfied client.

Posted by Margaret | August 14, 2014 | Divorce & Separation

Mr. Carter is an excellent lawyer.

Recently, I was divorced by my husband of three-plus decades so that he could marry his affair partner. Mr. Carter provided excellent representation of my interests and handled all of my ex-husband's legal shenanigans with a great deal of skill. I was able to get everything I was entitled to, includ...ing half of the retirement my ex did not want to part with, and more. I highly recommend Mr. Carter.

Excellent , extremely knowledgeable attorney!

Brad represented me in both my divorce and a criminal preceding wrongly brought upon me by my ex spouse. He responded quickly and the divorce went totally in my favor. The criminal preceding was dismissed and expunged. I couldn't have asked for better results.

Posted by Mariah | August 04, 2014 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Wonderful experience--smooth and painless!!!

Mr. Carter was very prepared to handle my case. He was responsive to my questions and inquiries and drafted legal documents quickly. This case was resolved quickly and to my satisfaction.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2021.

Reciprocal - Suspension issued in AR, 2021

updated on 06/14/2023

This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Arkansas.

Suspension/Probation issued in TN, 2020

updated on 11/15/2022

Suspension/Probation means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
