About Randall
Biography
Randy Kinnard has won many record-setting verdicts for his clients in over 30 years of practice. Middle Tennessee lawyers voted Randy Kinnard the lawyer they would most want to represent them in a medical malpractice case, said Business Nashville. The article quoted one lawyer as saying, "It's pretty well recognized that he is the premier plaintiff's medical malpractice attorney in Nashville." Lawyers Weekly USA, a prominent national law publication, featured Randy Kinnard as a MASTER OF TRIAL ADVOCACY in the article "THE WARRIOR WITHIN." Mr. Kinnard is certified as a Civil Trial Specialist and a Medical Malpractice Specialist.
Before entering law school, he attended West Point and served in Vietnam. A combat Airborne Ranger, he was awarded the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry, Purple Heart, Bronze Star for Valor and Air Medal for 28 assaults in combat during his two tours in Vietnam. He also served with the 82nd Airborne Division and 101st Airborne Division.
In the last several years, Mr. Kinnard has been asked by lawyer groups across the country to visit them and give his speech called, "R-E-S-P-E-C-T." This speech reminds lawyers how important it is to be respectful at all times, even in the courtroom. "The lawyer must respect the jury. Never waste their time and always be honest with them," he says.

More than just a lawyer!
Losing our loved one was the hardest thing our family had to go through but Kinnard took our case as if it was his oen son who passed. His experience is unbeatable, and his passion incomparable.

Waste of time
Their intake person wasted 30 minutes of my time, apparently. Despite their "free consultation" option I never spoke with an attorney. I was able to give a brief overview of the issue, but never got to provide photos or medical records pertaining to the case. Regardless, after the initial talk with i...
