Will is my go to criminal defense attorney in Nashville!

Will Tippens is not only a great Nashville criminal defense attorney, he cares and takes time to talk to our clients. We work together and a lot of cases with mutual clients and he gets great results! He is a colleague and a great friend of mine. I highly, highly recommend him!

Great lawyer

I went to a few lawyers, none of which would take my case. Went to will when I thought there was nothing anyone could do. He reassured me that he would do his best to get me the best options. He not only got me what I wanted, he calmed my anxiety along with it. This lawyer is the real deal. I strongl...y recommend him!!!

The best attorney I could've asked for!

Will took my case 4.5 years ago and it finally went to trial. The entire time he's been responsive and while living in another state has helped with all the random court appearances and waiving my appearance to avoid unnecessary travel. When it came time for trial he was very attentive and made time ...to make sure we thoroughly prepared. He's been great through the entire process. Words can't begin to give Will the credit he deserves for everything he's done for me! I highly recommend Will Tippens. Literally changed my life!

Great Communication and accessibility

Will was down to earth, readily available to answer any questions or concerns Explained each step of the process in easily understandable language with a knowledge that only comes with a lot of experience. And best of all (the reason you hire an attorney like Will), he's extremely familiar with the... court system, its officers, and has a great working relationship and mutual respect with the prosecutors which benefits his client's in reaching a great outcome. Mine was exceptionally amazing plus now I consider him a friend. I couldn't recommend him more highly for competence, ability, familiarity with pleas, communication and (my personal) outcome.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
