Andrew David Tharp

I am a trial lawyer at Butler Snow LLP, where I handle a wide array of litigation matters in both state and federal courts.  After completing ROTC in undergraduate school at Bowling Green State University, the United States Air Force awarded me an educational delay of duty, affording me the opportunity to attend law school before serving as a JAG Officer in the United States Air Force.  In the JAG Corps, I gained extensive litigation experience, which has translated well into my current practice.  I have recently been involved in cases representing a large grocery store chain, a small interior design company, a family of a woman killed by a drunk driver, and a major pharmaceutical company.  I am a member of the American, Tennessee, and Nashville Bar Associations, and I am heavily involved in the Defense Research Institute in which I am the vice-chair of the SLDO subcommittee.
