I am the president/managing shareholder of Lewis Thomason and the managing partner of the firm’s Nashville office. I practice in the areas of employment law, medical malpractice, workers' compensation, and general casualty defense litigation. My practice for the past 20 years has concentrated in the area of complex civil trial litigation in state and federal courts. I have routinely achieved successful results through defense jury verdicts, summary judgment, mediation, and arbitration in each of my practice areas. My current clients are national, regional and local employers; regional and local health care facilities; and insurance companies. In addition to my defense practice, I routinely author treatises and present educational and training seminars concerning new developments in Tennessee law to clients in the areas of general employment law, workers' compensation, and medical malpractice.
