Margaret has been a great mentor since I joined Held Law Firm. She cares about everything from her clients to her employees to the way the business operates, and takes great care to make sure she is advocating for those around her. She is a great advocate and has a knowledge of the rules that I can only hope to come close to one day.

Margaret is an excellent attorney with a strong working knowledge of family law. I would highly recommend her to any prospective client needing competent guidance through the complex legal system.

I absolutely endorse Margaret. I worked with Margaret on an out-of-state divorce, which makes any divorce very difficult no matter the issues. Margaret was very professional and goal oriented, but fully advocated for her client at the same time. Any person seeking a divorce would greatly benefit having Margaret on their side.

I accepted a position with Held Law Firm because of the firm's reputation for zealous advocacy. Margaret has built both a strong personal practice as well as a successful firm though hard work and diligence. Her energy level is unbelievable. I'm glad to be associated with such a reputable firm.

I recently worked with Margaret on a child custody case. In addition to having a strong knowledge of custody law in Tennessee, Margaret was a tenacious advocate for her client. However, Margaret also spent untold hours working with my office to find a workable solution for the Parties' case. I would highly recommend Margaret as an attorney or mediator for any divorce/custody case.

Margaret is an awesome colleague. She brings intelligence and insight to the table with a perspective that is unique in our field. It is rare to find a true advocate in a profession that can often get lost in the day to day legal business.

I fully endorse Margaret Held. She dots every i and crosses every t. She will ethically fight for her clients by building her client's case as thoroughly as possible. More importantly, in custody cases, she will consider the children she is fighting for and will not take positions on behalf of a client that would be harmful to a child.

I endorse this lawyer. The first time I met attorney Margaret Held, I was a recently-licensed attorney watching juvenile court proceedings and happened to observe a portion of one of her cases. Ms. Held's litigation skills were among the strongest I have ever seen. Her cross-examination was polished, organized, and effective. Ms. Held and her firm are well-respected in the Knoxville legal community, and deservedly so. She is an excellent advocate in family law and custody matters!

Margaret loves what she does and is really good at it to boot. I've learned more form her than could fit in an endorsement box, but suffice it to say she's as good as they come.If someone is looking for ethics, skill, and honesty they don't need to look any farther.
