Previous reviews speak volumes of this man's skills and concern for cases he upholds. He has turned a bleak and dreary, nearly irredeemable case into a hopeful, salvageable one. Without going into too many details, I had to change attorneys and dump their mess onto Luke's shoulders. He had very l...ittle time to make adjustments and to absorb the case. This did not deter mister Durham. He took it upon himself to visit places handfuls of hundreds of miles away (out of state) so that he could 'paint a picture' and get the information he needed. He did the work you would expect a phenomenal attorney to do. No stone was left unturned, no possibilities or options had gone unconsidered. He did his absolute best, and hardest work for me. My best interests were - and still are - in his heart. This is why he is my attorney, and why he should also be yours.

At present Luke is working on two cases for me. From the onset he listened attentively, has an enthusiastic, optimistic personality, tempered with sound judgement based on his legal expertise and does further research as needed. He has a no nonsense approach. He took action decisively and quickly. ...As needed he may be changing the strategy due to extenuating circumstances and is clearly prepared to do so. I appreciate that he is open to my input, valued it utilizing a couple of my ideas based on my research, thus making for a harmonious relationship. He is perceptive and non-judgmental. He has been able to discern the opposition's deception and is taking decisive action as needed. He is forthright and follows through. He is responsive, returns calls and/or responds to emails in a timely manner. I am optimistic that both cases will end successfully with his expertise.

Luke accepted my case (which was already filed with the court) after my first lawyer had to withdraw...not a very good feeling, trust me. He sat down with me and after hearing everything and asking pertinent questions, he accepted me as a client and immediately went to work on my case. He has taken t...he initiative whenever the opportunity arose. He didn’t promise me sunshine and roses and has been honest with me since day one. He is thorough, intelligent and has worked diligently on my behalf. I only wish, that I had found him sooner.

Luke has consistently prosecuted and won Civil Suit proceeding for us for the past 4 years and has done so by his excellent knowledge of the law, his hard work and dedication to achieving results, and by his kind/honest/compassionate demeanor. Luke demonstrates excellent knowledge of the law and lega...l system and if there is something he is not sure of he takes the time to check in to it. He is open to discussions on possible actions/approaches and he provided education to us to better understand legal matters and proceedings. In our last court proceeding, the Judge called Luke "a brilliant attorney at work". Luke has consistently worked on our behave to achieve positive results by good communication skills, his willingness to answer endless questions and keeping us updated on our case , and by his professional standing/respect in the court system and legal community. Luke is very respectful of others and is able to get results without being ruthless. He thinks before he speaks and does not promise things that are not possible. He has shown us genuine concern over the stress we have been under and gives us a heads up if a emotional wave might be heading our way. I honestly can not say enough of how thankful we are for Luke who has been there for us through a very difficulty situation. I highly recommend him to anyone and I am so thankful that we were referred to Luke through the Knoxville Bar Association.
