Mr. Rasberry always represented me in a professional manner. Recently we had to file a order to protect my daughter while her father is dealing with mental health issues, Johnny worked nonstop for two days interviewing witnesses and drawing up papers in order to get this in front of a judge, where he worked with father's attorney to protect my daughter with her father's consent until a resolution can be reached. Mr. Rasberry is a magic worker and I am so thankful!

I met with Mr. Rasberry to discuss my pending divorce, we went over everything and I liked what he had to tell me. Mr. Rasberry was the best ......I was referred to his office by a friend that hired him for her divorce. He kept me well informed, was my guide, and wonderful council thru this terrible ordeal. I couldn't ask for better. If you are looking for someone to stand by you, and not back down, Johnny Rasberry is your man. Think Bruce Lee in a suit...

Mr. Rasberry is an excellent attorney who was there with me through every step of the divorce process. He gave me all the information and help that I needed. Any questions I had he answered them and made sure that I understood. It was a difficult situation to be in as any divorce can be but he helped make the process as stress free as possible.

Mr. Rasberry helped me get away and stay away from my now ex husband, ultimately helping me get my life back. I was in an emotionally abusive marriage for twelve years and was struggling with getting this guy out of my life. He helped me get several orders of protection against my ex, even going to court with me. The divorce was handled very professionally and he meant business when it came to dealing with my ex husband. I did not have to do any foot work for the case, he did it all and he kept myself and my family up to date with the proceedings. I always felt comfortable and his staff were always very kind and considerate. If I would call Mr. Rasberry and he was out of the office, he returned my calls as soon as he could, I never felt put off the way some people do when dealing with attorneys. I wasn't just a client, I could tell he truly wanted to help me get out of my situation and be able to get on with my life and that made a world of difference to both myself and my family. I would highly recommend him for an attorney for both his professionalism and his humanism.

Mr. Rasberry was very professional and handling my case. I received timely updates on my case and how it progressed throughout the system. I would definitely recommend his services to close friends and family.

My case was neither simple nor quick - and I knew this (as any Father does when struggling for custody) going into the battle. Johnny was thorough, complete, fair and lead a team of people to my defense. Openly communicated, keeping me informed and did not sugar coat the situation. Since I had to travel 800 miles to be in court - those were important, very important. Bottom line is I won custody of my children, as a Father who lived outside the state of TN. Need I say more?

I was divorced 2/2014. I originally hired another attorney. My case was going no where with him. I was having to do most of the work myself. I work full time and this was impossible for me to do. I thought this is what I had paid him to do. Being unhappy with my first attorney, I looked on line and found Mr. Rasberry. In my first meeting with him I felt totally comfortable with him and confident in him. He did all the foot work. All I had to do was provide necessary paper work. He worked very hard on my case and I was divorced 35 days after our first meeting. And on my terms.

My daughter was in an abusive marriage. My husband and myself were actually in fear for her life. Mr. Rasberry took on her case, getting an order of protection, getting him out of her house and doing the necessary work to keep her safe . My husband and I live in a different state and not only did Mr. Rasberry keep her well informed but also kept us informed. I would highly recommend Mr. Rasberry to anyone who might need a divorce lawyer. He is someone that you can trust and he is willing to give his clients the time and attention that they need and deserve.

I highly recommend Johnny Rasberry to anyone in need of domestic legal advice or legal action. He handled my divorce and custody case with great expertise. Johnny and his staff were recommended to me because of the respect and compassion he has and displays for all parties involved, especially when young children are involved. My personal experience with him has proved this to be true. He is appropriately aggressive when necessary. On delicate matters, he has been quite effective and discrete. He has shown me he cares for me and my well-being, as well as my son.

I reached out to Mr. Rasberry for a consultation on divorce and he didn't listen to a word I said. He responded to my questions with unrelated information emphasizing just how little he listened to me. Even though he clearly didn't care about me or my case he made sure to talk down to me during the entire conversation. to boot he frequently interrupted me and spoke disparagingly about my situation. After seeing his history of reprimand and the annual disciplinary actions taken against him it is clear he should explore a new industry. Perhaps one where he doesn't have to interact with others as sympathy, empathy and sheer humanity are severely lacking in his skill set. There are many other lawyers in TN, keep searching.
