Thank you for taking a few mintues to learn about me and perhaps help you decide if I can be of service to you for your legal needs. I have been practing law since 2004. Prior to actively practicing law, I worked as a police officer in Smryna, TN and later as a police officer in Nashville, TN, where I left as a Sergeant to pursue my law career. I attended Motlow State Community College and achieved an Associates Degree in Social Science in 1994. I then attended Middle TN State University and achieved a second Associates Degree in Law Enforcement as well as Bachelor Degrees in Criminal Justice, Psychology, and Sociology in 1998. I attended the Nashville School of Law in the evenings while working full-time with the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department and graduated in 2004. I am married with two children and basically spend my free time playing chauffeur, driving them to their various sporting activities, therefore my hobbies are basically non-existent. I do try to make it to the gym regularly, but that is the extent of my hobby like activiites! My primary areas of focus are domestic relations including divorce, custody, child suport, and family adoptions as well as criminal defense at the state level. I am also a Rule 31 family law mediator.

Kim is a very intelligent lady and was very patient with me. She took extra time to explain my rights to me and when we went to court, I knew had the best lawyer in the courthouse. Her assistant always told me the status of my case and was helpful when I asked. I hope I never need a lawyer again, but...

Did not have the best experience with her. She was not really prepared for any court dates. Leaving stuff behind at her office . Doesn’t return calls or emails . Would not recommend her.
It is unfortunate that an anonymous person has posted this comment without addressing it with our office first but since there is no identifying information, I cannot make any assumptions about these allegations but to say that none of these complaints would be the norm for our office as my staff and I are diligent about responding to messages, both voice and email, and while we may miss an occasional message, we always take ownership and make amends. Additionally, we are always prepared for court dates. That does not mean things will always go our way as cases are very fact dependent, but I always put forth my best efforts. I am sorry this alleged client feels they had a bad experience, but I believe this would be an anomaly in my office. Thank you for taking the time to create a review.

We chose Kim based on her previous experience and her overall character that portrays confidence. There was great clarity from t...
"I have known Kim for over 12 years and she is a consistently devoted and hardworking advocate for her clients. I endorse and recommend her without reservation."
"Kim is a great lawyer and an excellent advocate for her clients. She practices in several counties and is well respected but many of her peers. I refer clients to her without hesitation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Kim is a relentless advocate for her clients and a tireless pursuer of justice for them. Folks needing an attorney in her areas of practice would be well-served by her representation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Gilleland is one of the hardest working colleagues I have worked with. She is always prompt with her pleadings and displays true concern for all of her clients. Ms. Gilleland is well respected throughout the Courts of Davidson and Rutherford County. A unique quality prevalent in Kim, is that she will do exactly what she tells you she will, there is always the highest ethics at the center of any case she is working and her word is her bond. I would not hesitate to recommend Kim to any client I was unable to assist."
