I hail from Clarksville, Tennessee, where I have been practicing law for eighteen years. I am a second-generation attorney, continuing the legacy of legal practice in my family. I am married and have been for sixteen years, and together we have three children. In my practice, I focus on family law, handling cases that range from child custody and support to divorce, orders of protection, and domestic violence. I am fortunate to work alongside two wonderful assistants who have been with me for fifteen years, supporting our clients through their legal challenges.

I have been practicing family law for 38 years. I am a TN Supreme Court approved mediator and have been mediating family law issues since 1992.My practice primarily includes Divorce, Custody, Child support, Modification of parenting plans, Contempt, Pre-Nuptial agreements and Juvenile Court cases. I am the owner and founder of the Hoffman Law and Mediation office. I believe that there are better and less costly ways to resolve divorces, than litigation. It is not always best to look for a "pitbull" attorney. You should be looking for a "smart" attorney. And yes, that is my pitbull, Jethro!...
