Awesome attorney. Cares so much about her clients. Gives all she has for her case . We appreciate everything she has done for this Family. Also what she is continuing to do . I pray God blesses her for all she does . She has a great big heart . To Mingy don’t ever stop doing what u do . U have a great big beautiful heart . I can’t say in words how much of a blessing u have been to us all . Again to u Thank u .

Would not recommend. Zero stars. Does not care about conflict of interest or slandering former clients when they don't do what she wants, she tries to bully them into it. She looks very unprofessional and is always fumbling in the court room and tripping over her words. 1 star is very generous, seeing as how she will play both sides and milk money from both parties. She even tried to set up an illegal meeting on a Saturday without the other parties attorney present. Very unethical and has no shame.

Ms. Bryant took the time to help me about a slum lord. Mind you, the time was about an hour and a half. I bought a trailer from a man on his property on Rocky Rd. Liberty. He has about 5 more trailers. I played $275 toward the trailer and $150 lot rent. I lived there over 3 years so happy to be living in the country. I made the trailer and land like my home. Once I payed the trailer off my happy country life changed..The slum lord doubled my lot rent and he did other things to try to make me leave that I'd rather not mention on this platform. The main thing is about a great attorney that took so much time to write out a countersuit for me. After she new who the guy was ( who is known for this in this county) and I was a vet on a fixed income. She charged me nothing. I mean not a dime. It meant so much to me for her to do that. I guarantee you no other attorney would take time to do that except Ms. Bryant. By the way. If she runs for judge. She'll win and have my vote.

I got the courage to leave my abusive ex, went to Mingy with my entire case. She heard my whole side and hired my now ex husband because he had money in hand. I went on to win my complete case, everything I asked for was granted to me, including my divorce. Now I have an order of protection against my ex husband, and he is wanted for homicidal intent against me and my children. So hope that cash in had was worth the conflict of interest Mingy!

This law firm is a joke! I would never go back here. And beware, there is no conflict of interest with this woman!

Our family is very thankful for this law firm. We were very pleased with the kind, courteous, and professional manner in which our case was handled. Angel Kane not only is a professional but is passionate about helping her clients in every way possible. She and Janice are a great team and help make you feel more like family than a client. I would recommend this firm to anyone needing their services. Thank you to all the staff at Kane & Crowell!

I am very thankful for this law firm and their help during such a hard time in my life. Angel Kane & Kayla Horvath helped me during a very complicated, tough situation and I am very grateful for them. They are very professional, very responsible, and I always felt like they had my best interest at heart. They were with me every step of the way and made sure I stayed informed at all times. They paid attention to every detail and were always quick to respond to any question I had. I am forever grateful for Angel & Kayla and I highly recommend them for any of your legal needs.

I don't even know where to begin to say how thankful I am of this law firm. I contacted them over a custody situation. I met with Lindsey and explained to her, she asked questions and drew up the papers, only after going over them to make sure everything was correct did she file with the court, she never once told me things I wanted to hear, she always told me the truth even though I might not have wanted to hear it but it sure helped me to go into court with an understanding of what could or could not happen. We went to court 3 times and Lindsey was very professional and had everything together to present our case, she knows her stuff, she worked along side Amanda and they decided what was best for the case and not. We won our case all 3 times due to their diligence in wanting what was best for the children involved. I highly recommend this law firm, everyone there is respectful and nice and let me tell you Lindsey had to talk me down a few times and she did very respectfully. I can't say enough good things about them so if anyone needs an attorney I do recommend them. Thank you to Lindsey for everything!!!

Always friendly

Kayla was very professional and helpful. I felt like she always had my best interest in mind. I highly recommend.

    Amy is the absolute best! Due to my situation, we were able to start and finish very quickly! I would recommend her to anyone needing a family attorney. She is extremely kind as well as her staff. I’m so glad i chose to go with her! Thank you, Amy!!

    Working with Amy was wonderful. She was very punctual with all meeting, filing of paperwork, and very helpful with any questions we had. Mostly importantly she gave realistic expectations of when things would occur regarding our case and finalized our case in a timely manner. Would definitely use her services again if needed and recommend her to others!

    Amy is a VERY professional, WELL educated and ETHICAL attorney. She responds quickly to phone calls, attentive to all your needs and gets on what needs to be done promptly. We retained her for my brother's divorce and she exceeded all of our expectations in EVERY way!! I would refer her to ANYONE in need of a family law attorney!! It was an absolute pleasure doing business with her!!

    Attorney Pollina is very professional, dedicated and showed genuine concern in dealing with our case. She took the time for phone calls, emails, listened and explained every nuance of the legal proceedings. She is very knowledgeable of the law and the Justice system, we wouldn't hesitate in her representing us again as she made a very stressful time in our lives bearable! Thanks Amy! Dwayne and Kimberly Newton

    I want to express my appreciation and thanks for the excellent service provided before and after the court date. I was able to save substantial time and money due to the ability of Amy's skill set and location near the courthouse in Murfreesboro . I would encourage anyone looking for help with their case to give Amy a call.

    Thanks Hunter and Miranda! Very responsive in answering questions with knowledgeable and sound advice. Also, helped greatly with alleviating my worry throughout divorce in doing so. I appreciate that! Made things very easy throughout the whole process as well. A pleasure to work with!

    I would recommend Hunter to anyone. He is very professional and he helped me get the best deal I could get. Thank you to the entire office.

    So happy Hunter represented my family in a custody case that pretty much had been dragging on/off for 3 years. Three attorneys later and I finally didn’t feel like my money had been wasted! Although my case was complicated and during covid, Hunter still was able to get me the most favorable outcome in mediation! I greatly appreciated Miranda, who was always quick to email or call back with any and everything. I personally haven’t experienced such responsiveness when it comes to attorneys and their offices. If my family needs services in Tennessee in the future, we will definitely use Hunter again. Can’t recommend his office enough. My family and I are now getting ready to move to the beach with family. Thank you Hunter and Miranda!

    Someone was always there to answer your questions,I highly recommend these people.

    My mane Hunter done a great job helping me get the big d from my ol lady! Got my kids too! He knows what’s up!

    Thankful doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel about Benjamin Lewis and McCarter East. Ben did an outstanding job on our case. He always made it a point to make sure we understood what was going on and kept us constantly updated. He made the process less stressful and was always so patient with us. We never felt rushed during our phone calls or meetings. His assistant, Ashlie, is so great and quick to reply to emails or calls. We never felt out of the loop. They make a great team. If your looking for a team that actually cares about you and your case then I cannot recommend Benjamin Lewis and McCarter East enough. He changed our family’s and especially our daughter’s life for the better.

    Ben Lewis is a great lawyer. I could not have picked a better attorney to represent me in my custody case. He is straight forward, honest, and responsive. He is very fair as well with his fees and cost. I’m grateful I chose him as my attorney. I highly recommend him. He will work hard and fight for you in any case you have with him. I can not recommend him enough.

    I had a situation which Anthony (Tony) Cain helped me. He was very professional, very helpful, and perhaps most importantly, empathetic. This is a real law firm. The highest compliment I can give is if I have any other situations I would use him again. Thanks Tony!

    Mr Moore has been an absolute blessing. We spent 2 years going back and forth trying to settle my dad's estate, and he was the one who really advocated for us and ensured that things worked out despite all the hiccups and curve balls. I would highly recommend him for any form of probate work, from writing wills to executing them!

    I retained Mr. Ben Lewis as my attorney after a call back from him as a result of an online consultation and meeting in his office. This has to be the best decision I have ever made concerning legal issues. A summary judgment had been filed against me three days after my first attorney withdrew from my case. I proceeded pro se' and I lost the summary judgment it was granted in the plaintiffs favor. Mr. Lewis took my case telling me that summary judgments were very rarely overturned. But Mr. Lewis walked into the courtroom on the day of court, he very prepared and confident and he overturned my summary judgment winning the case. I was proud to have Mr. Lewis by my side that day in court. Mr. Lewis will be on the top of my list if I need to retain council in the future.

      I retained Mr. Ben Lewis as my attorney after a call back from him as a result of an online consultation and meeting in his office. This has to be the best decision I have ever made concerning legal issues. A summary judgment had been filed against me three days after my first attorney withdrew from my case. I proceeded pro se' and I lost the summary judgment it was granted in the plaintiffs favor. Mr. Lewis took my case telling me that summary judgments were very rarely overturned. But Mr. Lewis walked into the courtroom on the day of court, he very prepared and confident and he overturned my summary judgment winning the case. I was proud to have Mr. Lewis by my side that day in court. Mr. Lewis will be on the top of my list if I need to retain council in the future.

    No one wants to go through a divorce. However, if you do have to go through a divorce it helps to have an attorney who is human and who has compassion and empathy for your situation. The process can be confusing and sometimes overwhelming so you need an attorney who can help you navigate the legal hurdles and who can help you understand what needs to happen. Rachel Upshaw is incredibly professional and very responsive. She was always there when I needed her. Joellyn was also very helpful and was very responsive to questions. If you need a divorce attorney I highly recommend going with Rachel Upshaw. She cares and will help you get through this.

    From consultation to the final hearing, Attorney Rachel Upshaw showed absolute professionalism, honesty, and high standards of ethics. Coupled with an appropriate amount of empathy, I felt safe and secure through my divorce case that lasted approximately 6 months. It was a contested divorce case and involved a lot of sensitive information which was handled with exceptional discretion. She has an excellent understanding and execution of the law and procedures. Not a detail is missed with attorney Upshaw. You can expect proactive involvement and timely responses always. I am so thankful to have had her as my family attorney in one of the most challenging and transforming times in my life. Thank you Rachel and the rest of the team at Miller and Upshaw. You’ve made this process end in victory and actual joy.

    Mrs. Miller has represented me for over 9 years now as my ex-husband has been using the legal system to continue harassing me after divorce. Karla is very alert and attentive. She has great memory, very organized, very knowledgeable, and detail oriented lady. I have enjoyed seeing her cornering him in every single court hearing and deposition. She, and her team, put alot of effort digging into proofs and weaving them together to prove our points. I was extremely satisfied in my last court hearing watching her questioning my ex, proving and documenting all the perjuries and fraud he is committing. She led the Judge to say that this is one of the top 5 most outrageous perjury cases he has seen throughout his career in law as an attorney and as a Judge.

    Rachel Upshaw is an outstanding lawyer and human being. Getting a divorce is very difficult to deal with. She led me through the process with intelligence and compassion helping me to come to a resolution that I feel comfortable with. Rachel was a voice of reason at all times and when necessary a fierce advocate. I recommend her highly to anyone who finds themselves in need of a lawyer.

    Ms.Miller was assertive, incredibly quick, showed confidence and excellent communication skills, especially during cross examination. She superseded my expectations with an unlikely outcome in our favor. This is the best attorney I have ever encountered.

    Amanda and her team are the best. They were all very responsive and very knowledgeable. I had a very complicated divorce and custody case. Amanda walked this single father through every step and the outcome was completely what I wanted!! If you want a strong legal team...Amanda is the right choice!!

    Attorney Thornton represented me and was wonderful. It was emotional for me and looking back I am so glad I had her in my corner. Although she didn’t call me every day, I know she was trying to keep my fees down because she was extremely reasonable with her fees and time. I know that she has a lot of other cases because she is great at what she does, but she would work behind the scenes and gave me updates as I requested. I appreciate her not trying to rack up unnecessary fees or expenses at my costs. She didn’t always tell me what I wanted to hear, but she was straightforward and I respect that because she didn’t give me false hope. I knew what to expect whether I liked it or not. She also let me know anytime there were delays and why and continued working my case through COVID and all the shutdowns when things ran slower. Looking back I may not have always liked what she told me, but I know without a doubt she was honest with me. Her staff was wonderful and kind especially Jesse! I hope i never need another lawyer but if I do I will call her again.

    Amanda was quick to answer all questions that I had. She is compassionate, kind, and truly cares about her clients. Amanda and her staff are considerate, timely, and professional. If you’re looking for excellent representation, look no further than Amanda Thornton.

    Amanda and her paralegal were amazing to help me through something that is so important to me! She responded quickly every time I contacted them and handled my case with sincere compassion and professionalism. She pushed my case through quickly to give my son his late father’s name. I cannot thank you enough for your help, Amanda!!!! Definitely recommend her to anyone!

    Do not hire Amanda Thornton as your divorce attorney! I’ve never publicly written a poor review, but feel it’s necessary in this circumstance to help others. She doesn’t care about her clients’ outcomes and does absolutely nothing to fight for them. Ms. Thornton never offered any guidance and only did the bare minimum even when asked directly for advice. It’s very obvious she chooses the path of least resistance for herself. She’s very slow to respond (sometimes 2-4 weeks on important, pressing issues) and just blames everything on Covid. I wish my friend had chosen someone else as I believe the outcome could have been very different.

    So my soon to be ex husband and I are looking to file a pro se divorce. That is an uncontested divorce, filed by a single party with no debts shared vehicles and with an agreed upon arrangement for the sharing of children and payment if child support ( you have to specify your divorce as including kids or not and workout your parenting plan ahead of time). After printing the paperwork off, however, I wanted advice and a professional double check I had worked it out properly. Not only was the ENTIRE STAFF SUPER COURTEOUS AND HELPFUL but Audrey Lee Anderson was extremely professional and helped with all the fine details. She was a blessing to find and worked with both of us to ensure and notarize everything. I was able to file myself, as we wanted as little court interference as possible and she went over and guided us through everything step by step. Her office is lovely, her personality is fantastic and she ABSOLUTELY HAS THE CHOPS TO HANDLE LARGER MORE SERIOUS CASES. If I ever needed a family law or divorce attorney or knew anyone who did she would be my first recommendation. You have to remember that in life: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR, and most lawyers with consultation fees have them because they are investing serious and caring thought in to your case from the moment you walk in. After having dealt with lawyers in my life for everything from family law to property law I can ASSURE EVERYONE READING THIS THAT SHE IS A PHENOMENAL ATTORNEY! We may have only needed guidance but I cannot stress enough how nice it is to know where my future attorney would come from if I ever needed it. Kelley and Lance were equally professional and invested as well and every great lawyer has a great team! ******* Had to add SHE ABSOLUTELY CARES AND IS DEVOTED TO EVERY CLIENT AND THEIR UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCES. We were far from a "big money case" and she still devoted her care and expertise to me today. She brought a lot of piece of mind to a situation that has been long going and could have been very messy without her. Again, for the 3rd time, if EVER I NEED AN ATTORNEY TO BACK ME::: YOU CAN BET YOUR BOTTOM DOLLAR IT WILL BE HER AND HER PHENOMENAL TEAM!!

    Just a couple of things. 1) her address on google is not the address she is at (on google on 10/30/20 says 2nd street). 2) obviously because of that the pictures do not reflect her current office. The picture on google shows her near a bookcase. The office I saw had loose papers everywhere and file boxes all over the floor 3) you have to pay full price before even seeing her. Not a hold, but full price. Found this out afterwards. See #6 4) I showed up at the proper time and called day before, her team confirmed on the phone that my appointment was confirmed and said I’m good. They also said I would receive an email which I never did. 5) her office overlooks a putt putt golf course if that means anything 6) when I showed up on time, she dismissed me to be on speaker phone talking to someone about Porta johns. Made me wait 15min 7) finally when she got done, she said no one expected me because I “didn’t pay”. When I asked what the protocol was and what the cost was, the her office couldn’t log into square to bill me, I said I will make another appointment and she proceeded to wave her hand in the air to dismiss me and said “fine”. Take it how you want it. I’m definitely not giving five stars because I went to 2nd Street location and she didn’t even comp me for my parking. They also didn’t offer water or ask how I am doing while I waited. But also not giving her 1 star because we really didn’t talk that much. But take this lesson however you want it Update: nov 8 Thanks Audrey for your response. I have change the address for you to be the correct one now. Your welcome and after reading your response I have reduced the star rating.

    Ms. Anderson and her staff were very thoughtful and made a difficult time in my life a little easier. Not only did Audrey explain the legal aspect, but she made sure that I understood. I'm very thankful for her and her staff.

    I hired Audrey for a child custody issue. OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE! I recommend Audrey to everyone that needs an A++++ lawyer. She is very understanding and has a genuine belief in what's right and just. She always has a great attitude and an amazing smile that calms you. I wish I could give 10 stars! She is definitely worth it!!

    Audrey Lee Anderson handled my child support case, and she spent a lot of time with me researching my case, and she was always available to answer my questions any time I had them. Audrey was concerned about the well-being of my son, first and foremost, and kept his future as the top priority, as well as providing a wealth of personal support. She is highly qualified, has a remarkable team behind her, and handled the case extremely well in the courtroom, through knowledge of the procedures and what needed to take place in order for the case to be resolved. I would highly recommend Ms. Anderson to anyone looking for a family lawyer.
