Intelligent and aggressive

Ms. Metcalf represented me in a civil legal matter. She was prepared both with the facts of my case and with the small details of the law resulting in a win. I would definitely use Ms. Metcalf again in the future as she was not only excellent in court but she calmed my nerves at every turn. Cannot... say enough good things about her.

Do not hire!!

Do not hire this person. Worst attorney I have ever been associated with. She will not return calls. She is cold and feels no empathy or sympathy. Waist of money.

Highly Recommend

I would HIGHLY recommend Laura Metcalf after she represented me in a divorce last year. She is confident, experienced and most importantly she works quickly!

Horrible attorney!

I would not recommend Laura as an attorney. She did not fight for me during my divorce but rather agreed with everything my now ex's attorney said. As a previous poster commented, she just wanted me to sign off on my divorce so she didn't have to deal with it anymore. I had unresolved issues that she... acted like she would help with that ended up going nowhere. She never called or emailed back and I got the constant run around. The only way I could ever talk to her was in person, and even then she was doing other things, acted not interested and always made me feel rushed to get out. If you are looking for good legal advice I would not recommend her!

Horrible attorney!

I agree with the reviewer who said she agrees with the opposing counsel. Every single thing in that review was accurate. To make matters worse, she has lied twice that I know of to cover her mistakes. Her main concern is to socialize prior to court, do as little work as possible, and encourage you... to settle. She must be afraid to litigate. She will tell you one thing when you first consult with her and then not follow through at all. I had to continually tell her what was in my parenting plan after we discussed major points. She absolutely is not an attorney who fights for you. She makes the opposing counsel's job easy. She told me she had filed a document a week before she actually did, then that document was only 3 sentences. Horrible! With her, it's settle, settle, settle. I think she doesn't want to go to trial. Must not have much confidence in her own ability. After my case was over, I spoke with several former clients and 2 other attorney's in Knoxville. They all had the same opinion as mine. Don't waste your money on her. You would be better off representing yourself!
