About Whitney
Biography
I am a 3rd generation attorney. I have lived in Murfreesboro, Tennessee my entire life and representing my community is what I take pride in. I studied Criminal Justice in college and went to have an internship at the 16th Judicial District's District Attorney's Office in the spring of 2008. Afterward, I became a paralegal for Sonya W. Henderson and remained her paralegal for over 4 years while I attended law school. After graduating law school, I took interest in practicing criminal defense, family law, juvenile, and personal injury. I love my clients and want to make sure that they get the absolutely best result.
