Very helpful and professional

Patti Garner was very helpful in clearing up a legal issue for our family. She was very professional and considerate. I would definitely recommend her for situations that come before family and juvenile court.

Fabulous Attorney

Patti is in my opinion one of the most dedicated, professionals that I have ever dealt with. She represented me in my divorce case and I got everything I had ask for. The most admirable thing about this was, "I was told my husband had the meanest attorney in Sumner County and I should fear my represe...ntation.". I had complete faith in Patti and I am here to share my story. If anyone needs a great a attorney, I suggest you give Patti Garner a call. Even up against the meanest attorney, we still won.

Outstanding Legal Representation!

I first hired Patti B. Garner in 2009 to represent me during my contested divorce. It was one of the most difficult times in my life. I was bombarded with important decisions that I knew would effect my life and my infant son's life. Patti B. Garner gave me excellent counsel and guided me through e...ach step. She took the time to meet with me as often as I needed, was prompt to return phone calls, and demonstrated that she has a very thorough understanding of the law. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my divorce and my parenting plan. The parenting plan was the most critical aspect of my divorce and I credit Patti B. Garner because she worked tirelessly to ensure the parenting plan included what was in the best interest of my son. Patti B. Garner still represents me when modifications to my parenting plan are needed. She is a phenomenal lawyer. She cares very much for her clients and has a tenacity to win like no other! I highly recommend her to anyone who desires excellent legal representation.

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.
