In this position, you will manage both felony and misdemeanor cases from arraignment through to trial, supported by a dedicated team of attorneys, investigators, and professional staff. This is a remarkable opportunity to influence the development of our Tennessee practice and play a role in one of the nation’s fastest-growing criminal defense firms.
