Methodology

Sources

Tennessee Law Directory draws from official public sources, in this order of authority:

  1. The official public attorney roll for Tennessee - license status, member type, admission date, firm and contact information, keyed on the stable bar number.
  2. Law firms' own published websites (for rosters, titles, and photos).

Verification cadence

Bar records are re-checked on a rolling schedule by our research systems, with records connected to judicial service refreshed more frequently. Every attorney page shows when its bar record was last verified.

Display policies

  • License status is stated as recorded in official public records. We do not editorialize, score, or rank attorneys by these records.
  • Street addresses are suppressed for judges and for records whose bar-listed address appears residential - city and state only. Published contact information is business contact information from sources that already publish it.
  • Deceased attorneys are flagged and their profiles carry no contact information.

Corrections

Errors happen - records go stale between refreshes, and matching is imperfect. The corrections process explains how to get a record re-verified.
