Totally awesome attorney
I had 2 charges against me,one for DUI the other for theft. Ms. Moore won my theft case and had my DUI thrown out. She is a great lawyer and worth the 5 grand I gave her to save my ass. If you need a lawyer, you better hire Mary.
"Mary Sullivan Moore's experience and track record speaks for itself. She is extremely well versed in numerous aspects of the law and is as competent an attorney as we have in Chattanooga. I proudly endorse Ms. Moore."

Censured issued in TN, 2006
updated on 09/21/2013When an attorney is censured it means he or she did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
