There are always options.
Let’s find the right one for you.
Some legal matters are simply unavoidable. Rather than ignoring them or trying to solve them on your own, we believe the best path to achieving a satisfactory resolution is through education so that you can make an informed decision.
At MHPS Law, we focus on helping our clients achieve swift results, not extending litigation to the point of diminishing returns.
Wealth Preservation
Preparing for a time when you may no longer be able to make sound decisions is an undertaking many people put off until it’s too late. We understand how hard it can be, and take the time and guide you through the entire process. With careful planning, you can have the peace of mind that everything will be taken care of and your legacy will live on.
Family Law
Navigating divorce, determining custody, and negotiating alimony can be difficult, especially when emotions run high, and children and properties are involved. We help families throughout Nashville and Springfield, Tennessee, navigate these challenges with the compassion and diligence to deliver the swiftest, fairest results for you and your family so everyone can move on.
Probate
The probate process can be time-consuming, expensive, and a matter of public record. We help clients avoid probate with careful estate planning and preparation. If probate is necessary to marshal the assets of a deceased loved one, you are in the right place. From uncontested estate administration to complex will contests, we offer support and guidance to resolve your matter as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
We put ourselves in your shoes and get it.

Real People
We’re selective with our clients so that service and quality of representation are never compromised. We take the time to get to know you and the facts surrounding your case before agreeing to representation. That way, if your problem requires a specialization outside of our areas of expertise, we will help you find a better path.
Commitment, availability, and responsiveness are what distinguishes us from other firms. Your case will not get passed from lawyer-to-lawyer, billing time along the way. We get right to it to determine what work is best delegated to a paralegal or clerical staff so that you get what you pay for, and feel good about the process.
How We Provide Support & Deliver Value
We put ourselves in your shoes
Nothing can feel more isolating than an emotional legal dispute. Whether you have the benefit of planning for the future or find yourself served with a lawsuit, such as a divorce or probate dispute, our attorneys will be by your side, educating you on the best path to resolution.
We teach you to see the big picture
We’re attorneys, but we’re also teachers tasked with educating our clients about the pros and cons associated with their options. Our job is to help guide our clients into making informed decisions so they never regret the choices they make.
We’re here when you need us
No matter what started your journey to MHPS, you will be welcomed like family on arrival. Life changes fast, but we’ll always be here to help you through the good and the bad.
