About

Robert's passion lies in helping Tennessee employers navigate the complex web of state and federal employment laws. In court, his clients have prevailed in jury trials, bench trials, on summary judgment, and before the Court of Appeals. His advocacy is grounded in common-sense and achieving results that are just and reasonable. Rob represents individual and corporate clients in a variety of matters, including discrimination actions, wage and hour disputes, and corporate formation. He has also defended employees and businesses in non-compete and trade secret litigation. Robert enjoys assisting small businesses in their start-up and basic human resources and risk management needs. Rob appreciates his responsibility to give back to the community. He serves as Chairman on the Advisory Board of Nurses for Newborns of Tennessee, a nonprofit dedicated to providing in-home nursing care to medically fragile babies. He also serves as the Secretary for the Board of Directors for Book'em a Nashville non-profit that focuses on youth literacy. Robert is a graduate of Belmont University College of Law, where he served as Editor-in-Chief of the Law Review. During law school, Robert interned as a clerk for Tennessee Supreme Court Justice Jeffrey Bivins and United States Magistrate Judge John Bryant. When he isn’t assisting clients, Robert enjoys running, trying new restaurants, and spending time with his wife and kids and their unusually large dog. Robert is licensed in all Tennessee state courts and the United States District Courts for the Middle District of Tennessee and Eastern District of Tennessee, and the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.

I found Rob through the Tennessee bar as I am in England and was clueless! Rob was our saviour, we won judgement and spent 8 years trying to collect, in less than 2 yrs Rob did what we thought was an impossible task, the judgement was finally satisfied! Rob was easy to talk to, down to earth and made you feel like you were his only client (even though I must have driven him to distraction) We would not hesitate to recommend Rob to anyone needing legal representation.

Robert was invaluable in helping me navigate a stressful time. He helped me understand the situation legally, laid out my options, and advocated for me enthusiastically. Can't recommend him highly enough.

I came to Robert to do the safety waiver for my Virtual Reality Arcade. Modern day VR arcades are a very new thing so I knew that it would be tricky to create a waiver that would include all the potential risks involved with one, but he pulled it off and did so in less time than originally planned for.

Rob was very thorough in the review of my NSA. He made me aware of some issues with that contract and explained everything to me in simple, and easy to understand terms (unlike my agreement). Will definitely use Rob again in the future.

I was directed to this lawyer thru a bonds company. I purchased a vehicle through a car dealership and found out later there was an issue with the title. After a couple months the issue was resolved thru Mr. Martin. Great support and very down to earth. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Robert helped me with an eviction and abandonment issue on single family rental home. He knows the Landlord Tenant Act very well so I was confident we were going to court well prepared and would be successful. We obtained a judgement and he also knows how to collect. I will use Robert Martin again when I have another tenant eviction.

I have asked Mr. Martin's legal opinion in a number of legal issues I have faced in my own practice. He always offers solid responses to questions, and he is thorough in his legal analysis, especially in employment law matters. Additionally, I have observed Mr. Martin's oral advocacy skills, and he is top notch. He would be an asset to any client facing a legal challenge.
