Excellent attorneys

Mr. Burch and Mr. Lockhart represented me in a difficult situation. They both were very attentive to my concerns and quick to return my calls. He staff is very courteous and went that extra mile for me. Highly recommend.

Hard Working

Eric was very dedicated to my case and needs. He is a very busy man, but always makes time to get the job done. Even though his office is only open during certain times of the day, Eric would meet with me before or after hours. This meant a lot to me because I have a very unusual and demanding work s...chedule. I also found his book, "Divorce in Tennessee" very helpful. He gave me a free copy at my very first consultation before I ever even hired him. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. I would definitely hire Eric again. Hopefully I won't ever have to!

Excellent Attorney

During his representation of me in a divorce case, Eric Burch made me feel comfortable with the process. His knowledge of the law is impressive. He was able to help me undertand the divorce process. During this difficult time, Mr. Burch's legal assistant, Lisa, made me feel at ease. I would highl...y recommend Eric Burch.

General practice lawyer | Feb 11

Relationship: Co-worker

"I was familiar with Mr. Burch's reputation in the courtroom and the legal community for many years prior to working with him. After having worked with him for several years now, I have been able to see firsthand his work ethic and the integrity with which he handles each case. Mr. Burch works tirelessly to ensure that he provides the best possible representation for each of his clients, and they are seldom disappointed. Although his experience and his knowledge of the law in each area that he practices is extensive, he is constantly striving to learn more and achieve more, and in doing so gains the upper hand for his clients. I can honestly say that the caliber of representation he provides to his clients is a rare find. He is respected both by fellow attorneys and judges in our legal community."
