I'm going to keep this post short and simple!! I called other attorneys in the area to assist my son with a minor infraction that happened on campus but never signed a contact because it just didn't seem right. My anxiety was on an all time high...it was the holiday weekend in 2023( Thanksgiving) and I called Darren Drakes office and left a message not expecting a call back but Kellie called me back and I'm thankful she did!! She was/is amazing and was easy to talk too!! Darren is hands down the best!! Thank you guys for everything!! If you need help definitely call them!!

Attorney Michael Rexroat is the GOAT (greatest of all times). He was professional and considerate of our circumstances. He tailors his services to the unique, individual needs of the client! He made us feel like a priority. He had handled our case before we even got to court. I felt as if he valued our time, we didn’t have to wait all day! I’m very appreciative and most definitely recommend him to anyone!!!!!

I highly recommend Mr. Scott Kimberly to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation, especially regarding child custody matters. He has been an invaluable asset in championing my son's custody rights. His adeptness in cross-examination, direct approach, and unwavering work ethic have played a pivotal role in addressing the injustices my son encountered within the legal system. Mr. Kimberly is not only dedicated to securing favorable outcomes for his clients but also prioritizes ethical practices and “refrains from exploiting them financially.” His commitment to his clients' welfare extends beyond legal representation; as a father himself, he genuinely advocates for the best interests of the children involved. If you're in search of a lawyer who will fervently uphold fathers' rights and relentlessly pursue justice, Mr. Kimberly is unquestionably the right choice. I am deeply grateful for his expertise, dedication, and unwavering support throughout this painful and challenging journey for our son, grandchildren and extended family.

I was referred to Scott from a mutual friend that we share. In the time of beginning the process of divorcing it was clear that I need representation and help to ensure I received what was fair to me under the law. When I first met him he made sure to come up, introduce himself and say "We are going to make sure you are taken care of." Any question I had about documentation, process, language was answered and explained while going through the 5 month process to reach the finish line. If you want the best, look no further.

A little over a year ago, I was very lucky to have hired Mrs. Pollina to represent me for my legal case. It was very ugly at the time and She was very honest and upfront about the type of case this was. Very quickly Mrs. Pollina was able to break things down for me and explain the forthcoming process. From the moment that I spoke with her I knew that I hired the right lawyer. Through every step she explained what has going to happen and She takes the time to let her clients know what she is doing and what to expect. I saw how she broke everything down for the Judge to understand. I had full confidence in her skills. I just cant Thank her enough for all of the hard work that she put in to see my case to the end. I will always be Thankful for her service! I would never hesitate in the future if I needed her to hire her again!

Ms. Pollina was very quick to respond to emails and questions. Our case was handled quickly and there were no complications. She makes you feel very at ease and it is very easy to talk to her. She shows you the same respect as you give her. Some attorneys have a “I’m the smartest one in the room” attitude, but not Ms Pollina. She never talks down to you or treats your concerns as insignificant. If we ever need an attorney again, and I hope we don’t, we will call Ms.Pollina. I will definitely recommend her to anyone inquiring about a good attorney.

My experience with Meridian Law, specifically Mr. Rob Martin, was absolutely excellent from start to finish. He is a superb professional and person, and his vast expertise can only be matched by his prompt service and deep compassion for his clients. I came to Rob and his firm after one of the worst experiences of my life that found me in a very dire situation, to no fault of my own, and he and his colleague stopped everything to help me effectively and quickly find recourse and relief. On top of that, they gave me a tremendous value to their service since I was in a tough financial position because of the situation. I am eternally grateful to them both, and I would recommend them FIRST to any loved one. Do yourself a favor and go to Meridian Law.

Lisa handled a complicated divorce for me with excellent results. When we initially went to court after being sued Lisa Eischeid was very well prepared, identified the key issues in dispute, the evidence and the weaknesses in the plaintiff's case. In a venue which almost always favors the plaintiff, she was great for the defense and the results were extremely favorable. The plaintiff fired her lawyer finally and her new lawyer apparently knew better than to face Lisa Eischeid in court. Because getting results in the court room, in the end this resulted in a fair and very reasonable settlement for the defense. It was a very stressful life event that took almost a year to resolve but Lisa Eischeid is all business, she took care of all the details for me. I was very pleased with the results. A very competent attorney. Highly recommended.

I have had pleasing results with Mr. Jenkins thus far in what I considered a straightforward breach of contract case made difficult and complex by a previous lawyer. Joshua accomplished within a few short months what the past counsel failed to achieve in 17 months. Joshua has consistently shown an uncommon enthusiasm and attentive ear to my needs and issues unlike what I found through the years past. My emails are answered many times within minutes and seldom beyond a day. My most recent case has put a heavy financial burden upon me and had also affected my child and family as a result. Joshua understood this and has shown his heart is in the same place as mine. Not to get into particulars but it involved not being paid nearly twenty thousand dollars by a Rutherford County TN contractor for services provided in 2012. To some twenty k is trivial but to many it's a lot of money and crated a severe financial setback for me. Due to financial restraints I represented myself in the beginning which resulted in the chancellor ordering the contractor to post a twenty thousand cash bond within eight days with the court to protect my financial interest until my case was resolved. Upon the contractor going into contempt I called several lawyers and experienced everything from arrogance to unaffordable upfront retainers. After thirty calls and leaving a few voicemails a lawyer returned my call offering to work for contingency. He waited 4 months to file a motion. As a result the contempt charge was dismissed as was the bond requirement by the defendant. Over the next six months I had to call to get informed and received lip service As a result I bought a law library ranging from contract law, effective advocacy federal rules of evidence to books filled with case law and precedent. After reading ten thousand two hundred pages to find eighty nine pages that pertained to my needs I effectively made it known I had two ineffective ambulance chasers representing me. After successful separation from counsel I was referred to Joshua Jenkins and his firm. I can give a very strong and enthusiastic nudge to anyone seeking effective and professional counsel to use Mr. Joshua Jenkins. He will be there for you.

Abby always made sure to explain all aspects of how the proceedings would go. She was kind, supportive, and incredibly hard-working, even in the face of unexpected circumstances. She fought to make sure I got a fair shake, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer!
