Joy Robertson was AWESOME! Our initial visit was very professional and friendly. I really felt like Joy listened to everything we had to say and she put my mind at ease. She kept us up to date on the status of our case and ultimately got us our full settlement without having to go to court! I highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for an attorney!
Despite its inevitability and universal reach, death is a topic that is difficult for most people to discuss. Most people want their deaths to be a time where their own life is celebrated and their surviving family members are able to come together. Most people do not want their deaths to be a time marked by family squabbling and disputes.
Laws in every state (including Tennessee) presume that a person over the age of eighteen years is fully capable and able to make decisions concerning their personal care and the management of their affairs. In most cases, this presumption continues until the person dies. However, what if an adult is over the age of eighteen years and is incapable of properly caring for him/herself?
We plan for weddings, parties and vacations. People sometimes even plan when they would like to start a family or what trajectory they would like for their careers. However, few plan for serious and unexpected accidents or illnesses that can rob a person of his or her consciousness, ability to think clearly, and/or ability to make rational and independent decisions.
In legal parlance, a "guardian" is an individual who is tasked with the care and management of a child. In other words, a child's guardian makes decisions that affect the health and physical and emotional well-being of the child. What medical care and treatment the child should receive and the medical providers who should provide this care;.

Poor customer service. Asked for payment for one thing over the phone that they didn’t do and then said the payment was for a consultation and didn’t return. Most law firms will give a free consultation to go over what they will charge for their services, go to them instead.

I had pleasure of working with Chelsea Conner when seeking a divorce. She was thorough as well as responsive. I am now happily divorced thanks to her.

Mr. Runger’s expertise and professionalism on setting up a corporate structure for my real estate business was more than what I expected. He explained everything in detail to were I can understand it and more. I highly recommend him if you need help setting up a corporate structure the correct way for your business.

We contacted Douglass & Runger to assist us with the loss of our mother. Our lawyer, Joy Robertson, was outstanding, calm, patient, reasonable in the turmoil that my family and I were going through. The rapport and guidance was outstanding at all times. She was prompt, timely and open for calls and quick updates, and worked through all of the questions and issues that my family had during these hard times. We would definitely recommend Douglass & Runger to any family dealing with the loss of a loved one and/or needs help with dealing with an estate.

I am so grateful to Curt Runger and the way he handled my case. He was great with communicating updates on my personal injury case after my car wreck. I had never needed a lawyer before but I am glad I went with Mr. Runger. He was truly dedicated to me and my case and helped me to receive a sun of money that was a total blessing. Mr. Runger was resilient, hardworking and the greatest lawyer I could’ve asked for.

Recently, I had the privilege of consulting with attorneys, Joy Robertson and Curtis A. Runger. Both were extremely knowledgeable, solicitous, and conscientious. They seemed to have all the time in the world to examine my affairs and to answer all of my questions. I was particularly impressed with Ms. Robertson for her kind and well-informed attention in addressing my questions. I know that their fees are very reasonable, also. I highly recommend both for their legal knowledge, competence, and integrity. If the need arises, I will certainly seek their counsel in the future.

Joy Robertson has gone above and beyond for me on more than one occasion. Her keen attention to detail, can-do attitude, not to mention her fair prices and killer track record keep me coming back. Absolutely stellar and would recommend to anyone looking for assistance with probate or civil litigation!

It's been almost a year and the bad taste from hiring Megan House for a prenuptial agreement is still there. Zero communication and unprofessional. My children could have drafted a better prenup than what I was given. The only recommendation I would give is to keep on driving.

Douglass and Runger is very welcoming and attentive to clients’ needs. We had the pleasure to work with Mr. Runger when my daughter left for college to attend to our estate planning. He made a very intimidating process easy and painless. I would recommend him for any estate planning needs.
