Excellent attorney!

Mr. Ainley has handled all the corporate legal work for the company that I work for with the utmost professionalism. He is very detailed oriented and always available to answer questions. He has also handled many different items for our family personally, and we highly recommend him.

Review for a great friend and an even better lawyer.

I have known Mike Ainley for over 30 years. One thing I always remembered about Mike through those years was his work ethic. An extremely hard worker on anything he did. He was relentless in his schooling and when he hit the work force, it was on a dead run,...full speed ahead. Before he became ...a lawyer, I hired him as a manager for a band that I was in. We went from playing small clubs to large venues in a very short time. The band ran it's course and disbanded but a few years later I got with Mike to guide me through a business situation, which has been my lifes work since then. I always call Mike when I have a need for law advice. I wouldn't go anywhere else. He's not just a great lawyer or business consultant to me,....he's a friend. He's also one of the smartest people I've ever known.

Mike Ainley has never lost for me.

I have used Mr Ainley over the past 16 or so years .I have a small mechanic shop and I have needed legal services on various issues. I usually explain my thoughts to Mr Ainley and he will then explain the legal point of view. I have never lost in court with Mr. Ainley.I have recommended Mr. Ainley to... all of my friends for all of their legal problems. So far not 1 person have been unhappy with the results of Mr. Ainleys services.

Mike is noy only a good lawyer, but is now a good friend.

Kept me informed during my case and talked to me after hours if I needed to. Treated me more like a friend than a lawyer. Made me very comfortable with what was going on in the courtroom. And save me a lot of money. Would highly recommend him !!!

He has an excellent track record in the personal injury area. I have relied on his expertise in the real estate field more than once. He was a Tennessee Certified Appraiser and a licenses contractor prior to becoming an attorney so his knowledge and experience in the real estate field is great! I find him to be a man of many talents and his care and concern for his clients is noteworthy. Clients feel comfortable that he will take care of them and he does. I would certainly recommend him to anyone needing legal advice or an attorney to handle many areas of law."
