James Robert Harlan

Born in 1957 in Columbia, Tenn., Bob Harlan was raised on his family’s farm in Hampshire, Tennessee in western Maury County. Harlan worked in the family businesses – learning the ins and outs of the agricultural industry – until he graduated high school and attended college at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Growing up on a working farm, Harlan has knows and understands, first-hand, the value of hard work and the importance of careful financial management. Today, Harlan still lives and works on his family’s farm where he operates a cattle-farming operation in addition to his full time law practice. This appreciation and respect for land and a rural way of life affords Harlan a special understanding of the unique needs of clients in the southern middle Tennessee region that he serves.
