Family Law

Divorce
After spending a great deal of time researching military divorce attorneys in Clarksville I hired Batson Nolan. My attorney took the time to guide me through the process and explain what I should expect. The personal attention and expertise made what was an otherwise difficult process as painless as possible.
Child Support
Mediators can help in many areas including with disputes arising in general civil matters, as well as those in the domestic relations area. This can include matters involving divorce, custody, child support, and with other related family law matters.
Child Custody and Visitation
The primary principle of child custody decisions is not parental rights, but â€œthe best interests of the child.â€ Parental rights are taken into account, of course, but they are considered secondary to the best interests of the child. Some of the factors that a Tennessee family court might use to make a custody decision include...
Adoption
Paternity
Premarital Agreement
Yes, it does. Tenn. Code Ann. Â§ 36-3-501 specifically provides for the enforcement of prenuptial agreements. Many family law courts, however, are inherently suspicious of them and may take a closer look at a prenuptial agreement than they would another type of agreement â€“ looking for a reason to invalidate it. Provisions relating to child custody or child support will not be enforced.
Guardianship
Meet with a lawyer to draft and execute a document that clearly outlines how your assets should be distributed and your debts paid at your death. Also, designate who you think is best suited to assume guardianship of your children.
Spousal Support
In Tennessee, alimony is the legal obligation of one spouse to financially support the other spouse. The trial court is granted broad discretion in determining whether alimony or spousal support is required, and if so, the trial court has broad discretion in determining the nature or type of alimony, the amount of alimony, and the duration or term of support payments.

Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
Mattâ€™s prior experience includes working in-house for a large corporation, volunteering as a judicial intern, and working in private practice on cases including criminal defense, family law, and civil litigation. While he enjoyed all of these areas of practice, he was particularly drawn to the field of litigation. â€œI love advocating for other people and coming up with creative solutions to solve difficult problems,â€ says Matt.Â
Wrongful Death
Only certain family members can pursue a wrongful death lawsuit, starting with the people most closely related to the victim such as the decedentâ€™s spouse, children, parents, or executor.
Traffic Violations
My husband was hit by a speeding vehicle and sustained serious injuries. We called on Batson Nolanâ€™s personal injury attorneys to discuss our options, and hired them to handle our claim. The attorneys kept us informed throughout the process, made sure we understood how long a case like ours may take, and set realistic expectations for recovery. We obtained a much higher settlement than we anticipated with the personal injury attorneys at Batson Nolan on our side. We have since hired the firm to handle several business matters.

Property Law

Real Estate Litigation
It was there that Jeff found he had a knack for real estate law, as his penchant for exhaustively pouring over minute details was very useful when researching land parcels and tracing back chains of title.
Premises Liability
Tennessee property owners are responsible for keeping their properties safe so that customers or other visitors are not injured. Generally speaking, property owners have a duty to regularly inspect their property to be sure that there are no dangerous conditions that might harm visitors. If a dangerous situation is discovered, the property owner has the obligation to either fix the problem or post a warning to people, alerting them to the danger â€“ and fixing it as soon as possible thereafter.

Estate planning, wills, trusts, probate...end-of-life matters can be overwhelming. Batson Nolan PLC â€™s Clarksville estate planning lawyers and probate lawyers are here to make preparing easier for you and the ones you love! Our Clarksville plan my estate lawyer will gladly help you.
Wills
The foundation of an estate plan is a Last Will and Testament, or simply a Will. A willâ€™s most basic function is to direct how your property is to be distributed upon your passing. Although this is the most important and understood function of a will, a will can also do many other thingsâ€”name an Executor for your estate, propose guardians for your minor children, and even create trusts for your family and loved ones. It is important to understand how a will accomplishes these objectives, as well as understand why planning for these situations is essential.
Trusts
In this way, beneficiary designations are a good example of the old adage, â€œYou get what you pay for.â€ While they are perhaps the easiest probate avoidance strategy, they are also among the most likely not to work out as planned. Families looking for a more comprehensive solution should consider other probate avoidance strategies, such as a revocable living trust.
