Founded in 1882 as a partnership of two brothers, Leitner, Williams, Dooley & Napolitan, PLLC has grown into a defense firm of national reputation, with more than sixty attorneys in our Chattanooga, Nashville, Knoxville and Memphis offices. Throughout its history the firm has worked for social justice and the interests of our clients in ways which mirror the times. Our founding partner vigorously defended an African-American man unjustly accused of sexual assault at the turn of the century, in the case recently made famous by 1999's prize-winning book Contempt of Court. Over the hundred years following our attorneys incorporated a city, consolidated counties and represented America's rising corporations. Members of the firm have been honored with judgeships, including the appointment of H. Ted Milburn to the United States Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals by President Ronald Reagan. To read more about the history of the firm, link to Paul R. Leitner's speech at our recent 120th anniversary celebration. The firm's growth has been the result of successful relationships with successful clients-- Fortune 500 corporations, major companies, small businesses, and individuals. Our top priority in every relationship is to protect our client against the costs and risks of litigation. The firm is committed to providing counsel which is highly capable, efficient and cost-effective, with no compromise of our high standards of personalized service. Our attorneys are skilled at mediation and advocate alternative dispute resolution when it is in our client's best interest, standing ready at every step to dedicate the firm's experience and resources to the aggressive pursuit of courtroom rulings. Our members believe that excellence in legal representation requires not only mastery of the law, but also knowledge of the businesses and industries in which our clients work every day. To this end, they regularly conduct seminars, help employers develop in-house protocols to protect against legal challenges, and provide up to date information on relevant decisions and complex changes in regulations. The firm's goal is to provide clients with strategies and resources to help resolve business challenges and prevent pitfalls. With over 350 years of combined experience in litigation and mediation, our members have developed an excellent rapport with officials of administrative agencies and familiarity with their practices. The firm has attorneys who are admitted to practice law in all state and federal courts in Tennessee and Georgia, in the state courts of Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, North Carolina and Florida, in the Fifth, Sixth, and Eleventh Courts of Appeals and in the United States Supreme Court. Over the years the firm has developed networks of expert witnesses and medical providers whose testimony gives valued guidance to courts and juries. Awarded the highest Martindale Hubbell rating available, the firm is proud to be associated with the many professional and honorary organizations which have recognized our members. These include the American College of Trial Lawyers, American Board of Trial Advocates, Best Lawyers in America, National Board of Trial Advocacy, Federation of Defense and Corporate Counsel, International Association of Defense Counsel, Trial Lawyers of America and the Tennessee Defense Lawyers Association. Our attorneys participate in our local communities through bar association memberships, through service on local government commissions, on the boards of private schools and hospitals, and with charitable organizations such as the American Heart Association, BigBrothers BigSisters, and the Boy Scouts of America.
