About Jesse
Biography
As a former Marine Corps Infantry Sergeant and Nashville criminal defense attorney, I have spent my career doing one thing: fighting for people when the stakes are highest.
I trained in courtroom advocacy and storytelling at Florida International and Temple University Schools of Law. I built my practice in Nashville on a simple premise — every person accused of a crime deserves someone in their corner who will go to war for them.
I handle DUI, violent crimes, drug offenses, property crimes, domestic violence, and federal matters. I try cases. I don't just plead them.
When you're facing the government, you need a lawyer who isn't afraid of the fight. That's what I do.
