Best Lawyer Ever!

As a writer and resident of the Ryman Artist Lofts I am privy to some of the best legal service in the city. I was so excited to meet with Franklin last Tuesday after we spoke on the phone at length about my legal needs. He is kind, attentive and truly passionate about what he does. He also knows his... stuff and is interested in applying legal practice to all artistic disciplines. He took my questions, no matter how trivial, seriously and always made me feel as though he was in my corner. Not only did he take the time to draw up a contract I had needed for months yet he also listened to a smaller issue in concerns to copyright infringement with my latest book project. His advice helped remedy the problem quickly and drama-free. It is people like Franklin who have made my time in Nashville not only magical but purposeful as well.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
