About
My main areas of practice are Criminal Defense and Divorce/Post-Divorce cases. Within the area of criminal defense I handle DUI's, Domestic Violence Offenses, Felony Drug cases, Violent Felony Offenses and Sex Crimes. Within my Divorce practice I handle contested divorces, orders of protection, change of custody and modification petitions for spousal support, parenting time and child support. Prior to practicing law I was employed as a General Sessions Probation Officer, where I built relationships and gained experience with the inner working of the court system and its components(judges, police, assistant district attorneys and other probation officers). I am the seventh attorney on my mother's side of the family. Several members of the family have been or are currently judges in Davidson County. My hobbies consist of coaching youth athletics(football, baseball and basketball). I believe communication, preparation and zealous advocacy are essential in defending and upholding my client's rights and rendering successful results.

I highly recommend Rob Thompson. He recently represented me in a complex case with a pending felony that would have ended my career. He is professional and tactic while also empathetic and has a heart for the people. He went above and beyond any other attorney I’ve ever dealt with, always answering and returning my calls, keeping me updated, and staying in contact. I appreciate him and feel beyond blessed to have had him represent me and help me get my life back on track.
Robb delivers professional help with empathy that proves he really cares. He saved my career, and my reputation. I can’t say enough. Without him I don’t know what I would have done.
I had a complicated divorce case that was then 5yrs running. spanning Three states and Four Attorneys. My ex was jumping states, stealing kids, and filing orders every where with a single goal of confusing the courts and obstruction of Justice. I had other attorneys in other states that talked about how great they where and loved blowing smoke more then ever listening & analyzing the problem at hand. Robb formulated solutions and came up with clear plans of attack that were understandable and correct. He was 100% aware of the law, formulated plans B, and C just in case something unexpected might arise. He was proactive not reactive. He was always prepared. Always available. I was confident in his abilities every step along the way. I solved a two year road block fast and on top of getting what I needed to move forward...He also added in clauses that would help me down the line in other states. I Wouldn't call anyone else. Robb Thompson is my Nashville attorney. Thanks again Robb. Great job. -James M
This review is long overdue. i have been busy with my family. My wife and I had just brought a new baby boy into this world. and in the middle of this brought very difficult times. 2017 were some of the hardest times i have ever been faced with. If it wasn’t for robb, i’m not sure i would be here today to support my family and get to see my son grow up. Robb, we are forever in your debt. Thank you so much for everything, from the confidence in goinging into the court every time, and the determination to not let a young and confused man get pushed around be the davidson county court system. you are truly a hero to those in need. i would recommend this man at any time of any day. i always keep his card in my wallet.
My experience with Mr. Thompson was nothing short of amazing! I sought his services for appealing a conviction of a domestic violence charge where I initially had a public defender. He asked me what I would like to see happen with my case, and my response was that I desperately needed it dismissed for the sake of my current and future career. He worked diligently for months and accomplished just that! Also, he checked in with me weekly to give me updates on my case. This was a rough time in my life, but I am so grateful that I found an attorney that was so passionate.
Robb is as professional as could be. I was charged with DUI and Implied Consent after a violent multi vehicle collision in Davidson County. Mr. Thompson never promised any results, but rather, explained all of the possible scenarios. Judge interrupted roll call of the docket in order to thank Robb for how he introduced himself to the court as compared to other lawyers in the courtroom. I was able to keep my license, and neither charge stuck on my record. I would not hesitate a second to recommend him for any legal matters considering my situation and outcome.
Mr. Thompson did an excellent job in getting the charges against me dropped. Very professional in the way He handled my case
I first had a consultation with Mr. Thompson. At that point, he agreed to take my divorce case. Mr. Thompson was very kind and easy to work with. He explained exactly what to expect and how long it may take. My calls, texts, and/or emails were answered in a timely manner. When we went to court. Mr. Thompson was prepared and made sure I was prepared and comfortable about what would take place. It went very smoothly and my divorce was granted without any problems. Mr. Thompson is an excellent attorney with his clients best needs at heart. I highly recommend him as a divorce attorney.
Robb is an excellent attorney and I will hire him again if ever necessary. He informed me exactly what was going on with my case each step of the way. He was straight forward and easy to deal with. I ended up with a slap on the wrist thanks to Robb. I would recommend him to anyone.
Mr. Thompson accomplished exactly what he promised me. He gave sincere advice and did not string along my case to get more payments. Very professional.
