Samantha is a trusted counselor who helps individual and corporate clients navigate complex financial matters.
Her goal is to find efficient, practical strategies and solutions so that clients can focus on their wealth, business and finance goals. She works hand in hand with investment managers, accountants and back office teams to provide seamless support for tailored strategies.

She regularly represents clients in fiduciary litigation, trust and estate disputes, and insurance controversies. She is trial-tested, having obtained first-chair favorable verdicts representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Samantha has also handled state and federal appeals in Tennessee and Texas.
When she’s not elbow deep in planning and litigation work for clients, Samantha is active in the community supporting the next generation of female leadership. She is a leader for the firm’s True North women’s initiative; a member of the Southeast Tennessee Lawyers Association of Women, the Chattanooga Women’s Leadership Institute and the Junior League of Chattanooga; and a community fundraiser for juvenile literacy.
