Here To Help You Protect Your Legacy And Your Loved Ones

Since 2013, I have been privileged to provide legal services to families across Eastern Tennessee. At Oakes Law Firm, my Knoxville practice covers a broad range of areas. However, I primarily focus on estate planning, wills, trusts and probate administration. It is important to me that my clients’ wishes are carried out and their loved ones are taken care of for generations to come.

I am a member of the Tennessee Bar Association, the Knoxville Bar Association, and various other legal organizations. I gain invaluable insight as a participant in these organizations, keeping me up-to-date with the latest developments in my field. This knowledge allows me to offer effective legal solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs.

My Commitment To Clients

As a native East Tennessean, I understand the importance of personal attention and a welcoming demeanor. Because I am a solo practitioner, I maintain direct contact with my clients. This one-on-one interaction allows me to remain actively involved in every aspect of my clients’ cases.  

When you partner with me, you can depend on me to take the time to listen to your concerns, set realistic expectations and advise you at every step. I strive to simplify what can often be a complex and daunting legal situation.

I strike a balance between utilizing modern technology to streamline processes and employing traditional methods that have secured favorable outcomes in the past. Combining these approaches enables me to address issues efficiently while maintaining a personal touch that puts my clients at ease.
