Case Types
Where industry experience changes the analysis.
Matters where standard of care, custom, and practice are at issue — not just the black-letter law.
Standard of Care & Industry Custom
What a reasonably competent Tennessee broker, agent, or manager would have done under the same circumstances — and how TREC standards, commission rules, and published custom apply.
Commercial Leasing Disputes
LOI and lease interpretation, CAM reconciliations, exclusivity and co-tenancy, defaults, subordination, and tenant/landlord conduct during and after the transaction.
Brokerage & Agency Disputes
Agency formation, scope of representation, dual agency, designated agency, supervision of affiliates, and the commission/procuring-cause framework.
Disclosure & Misrepresentation
Seller's Property Disclosure, material defects, agent duty to investigate, and when industry practice required disclosure that was not made.
Property Management Operations
Trust accounting, escrow handling, habitability, vendor management, lease enforcement, and the line between managing and practicing.
TREC Licensing & Supervision
How complaints are evaluated, what supervising brokers should reasonably catch, and how training and written policy bear on licensee conduct.
Approach
Measured. Prepared. Plain-spoken.
An expert who overreaches hurts the case. The work here is grounded in the record, framed in language a jury can follow, and limited to what the industry actually supports.
Teaching TREC coursework and working day-to-day as a managing broker keeps the opinions current — not drawn from practice ten years ago.
