BusinessTN

To make it easier to choose the right representation from among the state's roughly 18,000 active attorneys, BusinessTN once again presents its refreshed annual list of the 150 lawyers whose reputations and current high level of activity distinguish them from the rest.

Unlike many published lawyer lists derived more through application than true merit selection, this list is the product of BusinessTN's own due diligence based on peer review provided by other lawyers, judges, business executives and heads of organizations across the state.

The result is a one-of-a-kind annual directory of the state's best barristers that will expedite any business reader's review of available legal talent. As we've said before, readers are encouraged to stay out of trouble and keep their businesses out of the courtroom, but for those who can't avoid it, here is a list that may help.
