2020 Top Attorneys
When you’ve got a problem with your health — a heart issue or an eye problem or an ache that keeps you off your favorite hiking trail — you seek out a doctor who knows his — or her — stuff. There’s no point in seeing someone you don’t have confidence in. The same goes for attorneys. When you find yourself with a legal issue — whether it be a car collision or a divorce or the need to put your financial and end-of-life plans in place for your descendants — you want to work with a person who is an expert in that particular field.
That’s where this issue of Cityview can help.
Once a year, the magazine asks members of the Knoxville Bar Association for their input on the attorneys in East Tennessee who are tops in their field of expertise. Attorneys are asked who they would refer a friend or family member to if they needed legal assistance. We’ve listed those top finishers by their areas of practice in the pages that follow.
Of course, this is just one way to determine the best legal professionals in the area. Though their colleagues are a good way to assess the area’s legal expertise, anyone in need of legal help should schedule a consultation first to make sure the attorney is a good fit for the situation.
One of the area’s best-known and well-loved attorneys is Robert Pryor, who has also been aCityviewcontributor for many years. We thought we’d kick off this Top Attorneys section witha tribute to him written by his sonand associate, attorney Robbie Pryor.
