He is a Deal Maker & Excellent Lawyer

I started working with Chenault over a year ago. He understands people and complex situations. He takes the time to know and understand what is going in each situation. He values what his clients want most, yet is not afraid to advise them accordingly. His ability to visualize a complex deal stru...cture coming together is a gift. His understanding of the law, financials, taxes, and planning for the future is priceless. So far I have found him to be worth the time and money.

Very Capable

Sanders has assisted me with organizational structural issues in very complex transactions. He did so with professionalism, courtesy and with excellent results. His knowledge about the issues and structure were strong and he assisted me in a very timely manner.

Excellent result

I have worked with Chenault for more than a decade. He helped me navigate the planning of my estate in advance of the sale of a business and ultimately the sale itself. He then handled a complicated transaction involving over 50 separate real estate investment entities and an upreit transaction in ...2009. Since then I have used Chenault as my private counsel and never take any other major firms advice before having his review. Over and over again, his advice changes the deal structure. He is very creative. He is hard to get in touch with sometimes but when he is on point and engaged on my need, he is at the result I need in one meeting and understands my unique needs. Worth every penny for me.

Complex large money issue solved

Sanders is an excellent attorney. He guided me through a very complicated financial issue that several large Nashville law firms could not solve. He is a creative and wholistic thinker and cuts through to the core issues immediately. He is very expensive but I would have spent more money trying to... get any other law firm to understand my issues and my unusual goals. Chenault has a brilliant mind for alternative business and financial structures and the result was excellent.
