About

I was born in Chicago Illinois, and had a great childhood in Chicago in a large family.  When I graduated high school I worked three years in a steel mill while attending college part-time.  I eventually joined the military to finish my schooling on the GI bill.  In the Army, I worked as an operating room technician (handing the surgical instruments to the surgeon) for 3 and 1/2 years in a military hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii (a wonderful assignment as you might expect).  As planned, I finished schooling after I left the military, and the GI bill funded my tuition all the way through law school at Southern Illinois University.  I am forever grateful that I was afforded that luxury that so many others are not.  Upon my graduation from law school in 1986, I returned to the U.S. Army as a JAGC attorney, where I practiced as a criminal defense attorney at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky for three years.  Upon my discharge in 1990, I entered private practice first in Nashville, Tennesseee for three years, then in Chattanooga, where I have remained for the past 20 years.  I love Chattanooga, and I am very impressed with the legal history and traditions of our town, and the first rate judiciary our town seems to consistently produce.  Having worked in so many other jurisdictions, I am keenly aware how lucky Chattanooga is to have such a friendly, competent bar, and fair, concerned judges.  My staff and I try our best to honor and uphold the high standards of the Hamilton County courts, and we will do our best to help every client that puts their faith in us.

Alan Beard is the best lawyer to obtain. He helped me on two separate occasions and won on both. Now I'm hiring him for a third time. He is a good man and I have faith in him. Thank You Alan for all you do.

I hired to help navigate and represent me through order of protection, in which he did with absolute tenacity. He was able to expose many holes in the allegation, which ultimately resulted in the order being dismissed.

I Think Alan Was The Best Lawyer I Could Have Chosen. I Was Facing A Serious Job Due Too A Dumb Decision Of Believing A Friend And Was Charged For It. I Hired Alan Beard And Got The Case Completely Thrown Out. He Did Amazing Job Representing Me In Court I Highly Recommend Him For Any Type Of Court Case You Need Assessed.

We hired Alan to help us in the fight of getting custody of our little children back. This was a complicated case that involved a lot of family members. Alan was attentive and precise with how to handle this specific Case. He did a beautiful job and with his help we were reunited with our babies!

I highly recommend Alan if you need an attorney. I hired Alan for my divorce almost two years ago and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He knows what he’s doing and he gets it done!

I hired Alan when I realized my case was more complicated regarding my child custody. He was very well recommended by many friends thats why knew I was in good hands. At first I didn’t expect to have results on my favor because the state usually favor the mother in custody case but Alan was able to get judge a clear view of the situation and have a better understanding since it was complicated case. Alan, David and Alex where always attentive and very professional they would guide me step by step on the laws of hamilton county. Alan and David were always very confident on their work even when the opposite party was making the case more complicated. At the end the judge strongly agreed with Alan and I was awarded custody of my son. I will recommend Alan and his team to anybody going through the same, you would feel very strong and confident going into court knowing they have everything under control.

My experience with Mr. Alan Beard was so amazing! When I caught my charges I was very devastated and stressed out. But after speaking to Mr. Beard for the first time he put my mind at ease. I was facing 3 serious charges and he got them all dismissed by the second appearance we made to court. His prices are very reasonable, he was also very flexible and made accommodations when needed. This is my second time using Mr. Alan Beard for criminal charges. With both cases ending in positive outcome. I highly recommend hiring him for your law needs Most of all his consideration and drive as a lawyer was most outstanding.

Alan Beard is a great courtroom lawyer that helped me keep my children, after the state of tennessee took them based on unfair lies by my mother. Alan goes straight to the jugular and made it plain to the judge what the truth was. Finally I was able to get the truth out and I'll always be grateful to Alan and his wonderful staff.

When going thru a difficult time with My divorce I chose Alan through reading his many reviews. Best choice I could have made. Upon the first consultation I could tell he was a True Winner, and he did not disappoint. His knowledge of Tn Law is impeccable. He guided me thru the difficult process and when situations arose that could harm my case he was there. I could not be any happier with the outcome. If you need a Lawyer, Hire Alan and get the best! Thank you so much for giving my Life back to me.
