Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review.

From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios.

I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation.

While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville.

This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones. MY REVIEW My wife and I first met Lori Fleishman four years ago when we were looking for legal representation for our child’s divorce, which included a child custody battle. We were very pleased with the outcome that Lori fought for in both the divorce and the custody battle. Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions.

Lori has a great legal team to assure that her clients have the most competent and effective legal representation possible.We highly recommend Lori Fleishman to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and effective lawyer to represent them in a divorce or a child custody dispute. Lori guided us through the turmoil and kept us in the loop of what was happening at each step in the process. She imparted to us her confidence that we would eventually prevail. In summary, I can’t stress enough that you don’t realize how important it is to have really good legal representation, especially if you face off with someone like Alicia. You need a lawyer that can respond to the twists and turns in a case and not back down from any hostilities or difficult situations faced, especially when “special personalities" are involved. - George

Before I hired Ms. Fleishman, I looked at AVVO to see if she had any negative input. I was somewhat concerned by some of these comments. However, I know, first-hand, the kind of lawyer Ms. Fleishman is, and I also know that she gets results. It is true that any legal process takes a lot of time, and sometimes it takes much longer to get through all of the legal hogwash than we would like, but the end result is what is a determining factor for me. Ms. Fleishman has a history of having good results especially in child-custody matters. I know of no highly utilized attorney that has not received a negative comment from a client, or the other side, at one time or another. I suspect many of the negative comments made here, were made by someone other that the client. I have nothing but good to say about this attorney. Ms. Fleishman is professional, Ms. Fleishman is experienced in the law, and Ms. Fleishman gets results . . enough said!

I WAS IN COURT WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS USING MS. FLEISHMAN AS HER ATTORNEY. I SAT IN COURT AND WATCHED MR. FLEISHMAN IN ACTION AND I MUST SAY SHE WAS A FIGHTER. IF I EVER NEED A DOMESTIC ATTORNEY, IT WILL BE HER. MY FAMILY MEMBER SAYS NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT HER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HER IF I NEED A LAWYER. I AM STILL AMAZED AT HER ABILITY.

The word "terrified" cannot adequately express how I felt when I suddenly found myself filing for a divorce from my long-term marriage. I felt hopeless. By the grace of God I was introduced to Lori Fleishman. She and her staff competely understood my situation and were readily available to assist me. My telephone calls were always returned within a 24 hour period, and I truly appreciate the "hand holding" by her staff. The divorce process is overwhelming, at times, and they were there to ease my frustration and concerns allowing me to move past the issues. The divorce did take a while to complete, as it was a contentious divorce, but I knew coming in that it was not going to be a short process. Ms. Fleishman was very knowledgable and she and her staff kept me informed every step of the way throughout the process. So, to anyone out there who is terrified of getting a divorce, I would recommend Lori Fleishman. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. Fleishman is extremely knowledgable regarding divorce matters. This was my first experience using an attorney, and she was unbelievably helpful and caring when it came to me, personally. She and her staff were always ready to answer any questions that arose during the course of my divorce action. I fully expected this matter to take much longer than it did, and, in fact, my divorce was filed and I was divorced within a 4 month period. Although my divorce was an agreed divorce, this process was made as seamless as possible by Ms. Fleishman, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and personal care in this regard. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce.

I was going through a divorce and she was awesome. She was with me every step through this ugly process. If you want someone that will fight for you she is the one!!!

Ms. Fleishman recently represented my friend's child custody case. I have to say, she is very professional and extremely knowledgeable of not only the law, but the local courts as well. She is very accustomed to a heated courtroom, cross examination, and the legal tactics for success. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Fleishman is truly the epitome of professionalism and intelligence in the law field. Ms. Fleishman is very valiant and dedicated to her clients. Obviously, the former clients whom have negative complaints about Ms. Fleishman have no former experience in the court system. It is a long, strenuous, draining experience. Ms. Fleishman is currently handling my custody case, and has produced results that no other attornies have even come close to. She is absolutely fabulous and I would highly recommend her.

This has to be the best attorney in Knoxville. She was very dedicated to our case. We could pick up the phone and call her office, and our call was returned. Her paralegals were great too. A very professional lawyer. This is the only attorney we will ever use. She represented us very well in court. Very knowledgable.

Not being one who writes reviews, I am writing because I am uniquely positioned to provide insight as I have observed Ms. Fleishman’s performance over the last 10 years in my own case, extended family’s case, and the cases of family friends. Ms. Fleishman delivered wins in each of these cases and demonstrated brilliant intellect, detailed knowledge of law, uncanny intuition, and a keen sense on where a case is heading and what may arise. Lori and her team completely turned my case around into a complete success. In the past, I interviewed many attorneys and can empathize that it is incredibly difficult finding someone trustworthy, who is not primarily concerned with filling their retainer. Ms. Fleishman is on the opposite end of this spectrum as she genuinely gives counsel for the benefit of her clients. She cares more about winning your case, protecting you from any damage, and obtaining the healthiest outcome for your family. There have been moments when her advice to me went against any additional profit to her. This is the caliber of representation that I strongly believe deserves such a great review. Ms. Lori Fleishman is a renowned top tier attorney who is highly regarded in the South, having represented both private individuals and major companies. She is regularly hired by the South’s finest, from company heads to industry executives. People even look for her from areas outside Tennessee. Many have heard of her wins, as she wins more than loses. If you are hiring her for your case, you’d be happy to know that you are hiring the Ivy League of attorneys. If average attorneys are Kias, Ms. Fleishman is definitely a Ferrari. Quite literally, she has a strong presence in the room and is extremely fast on her feet. A rarity in the law world, she has both an empathetic, objective eye, but is also well known in the courtroom for being an aggressive fighter. Her fierceness in defense of her clients has long been famed and discussed among attorneys and previous, happy clients. I have seen her in Gladiator mode and she will NOT back down in your defense. I cannot emphasize this enough. She is extremely thorough and will catch the little details others will overlook, which can turn cases around. This combined with her intelligence, strong poised presence in the courtroom, and 30+ year experience makes her someone you definitely want on your side in tough cases. I’d much rather have her on my side than against. From personal experience, Ms. Fleishman takes the time to listen to her clients, ask detailed questions, and can immediately consider a number of possible strategies and resulting scenarios. With 30 years of experience, her expertise clearly shows in the first meeting, in mediation and under pressure in trial cases. She has a natural ability to think beyond what is being portrayed, and figure out what is truly happening on the other side. I read other reviews on this site and have to shake my head. Some of the negative reviews are not authentic as there are cases where disgruntled opponents or ex spouses have lost against her in court and log onto these sites to smear her name. They create fictitious, fake stories to retaliate against a fair trial that they did not win. Please be careful when considering. As with any review, please question the credibility and stability of these authors. Questioning is healthy. If you are not sure about an attorney, try scheduling an appointment and see for yourself. If the attorney clearly shows knowledge, addresses your concerns, and completely evaluates your situation, that is a good sign. Under her representation, I rested easy knowing that I have the best possible attorney in the South. I have confidently recommended her to my own family and friends, and I’ve only gotten words of gratitude. So I can definitely recommend her to others on here without hesitation. Feel free to send the letters of appreciation to my email. It would be extremely difficult to find better.

Lori Fleishman is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her for handling your divorce and/or child custody case. However, before I get into all the reasons why I think Lori is the best lawyer for these law specialties, I want to set the record straight about an exceptionally negative review about Lori that I just read on this forum. It is titled, ‘Jacqui, child custody case.’ Jacqui rated Lori as "poor" in all categories. I thought, how is it possible that one of Lori’s clients would rate her so low? A lawyer that deserves such low ratings surely could not survive in such a competitive market as Knoxville. I knew that Lori’s law firm was thriving, so I went back to re-read this review to try to better understand the person’s perspective. While I was reading it, I realized that I knew the person that had written this review, based on terminology and writing style, and she wasn’t a client of Lori Fleishman. Let's call her Alicia (not her real name), who is my child's ex-mother-in-law. Alicia hired several lawyers during the past few years in an attempt to gain the upper hand in both the divorce and child custody case in which my child was involved. She used various dirty tactics to try to manufacture evidence that she could use in court. Lori was able to negate the fabricated evidence and use it to our advantage. Because Alicia has not been able to prevail, she has resorted to character assassination of the opposing lawyer (Lori). A lawyer's reputation is their livelihood. This is an effective, but very dishonest and low class way to "get even." It is interesting to note that Alicia chose the name Jacqui to be the author of her bogus "review." Jacqui is the name of one of Alicia’s real life daughters. Jacqui is really a very nice person and I doubt if she is linked in any way to her Mother's deceitful actions. This is a good example of how easy it is for someone to ruin a professional's reputation by using lies on feedback forums, like this one, or on social media. It makes me wonder how many other bad reviews of Lori on this website and others like it could also be Alicia’s work. It is becoming more and more difficult to distinguish between the good guys and the frauds, liars, and disreputable people online. They distort the truth for their own selfish motives. The good guys are legitimately trying to help the readers of this forum by sharing their REAL experiences, both positive and negative, as one of Lori’s clients. If people are being truthful, I have no doubt that the good reviews will overwhelmingly outnumber the bad ones.
