A Comprehensive Guide to Contesting a Will in Tennessee
Something isn’t right about your late grandmother’s will. You’ve drifted away from your family over the years since you moved…
There are always options.
Let’s find the right one for you.
Some legal matters are simply unavoidable. Rather than ignoring them or trying to solve them on your own, we believe the best path to achieving a satisfactory resolution is through education so that you can make an informed decision.
At MHPS, we focus on helping our clients achieve swift results, not extending litigation to the point of diminishing returns.
Wealth Preservation
Preparing for a time when you may no longer be able to make sound decisions is an undertaking many people put off until it’s too late. We understand how hard it can be, and take the time and guide you through the entire process. With careful planning, you can have the peace of mind that everything will be taken care of and your legacy will live on.
Family Law
Navigating divorce, determining custody, and negotiating alimony can be difficult, especially when emotions run high, and children and properties are involved. We help families throughout Nashville and Springfield, Tennessee, navigate these challenges with the compassion and diligence to deliver the swiftest, fairest results for you and your family so everyone can move on.
Probate
The probate process can be time-consuming, expensive, and a matter of public record. We help clients avoid probate with careful estate planning and preparation. If probate is necessary to marshal the assets of a deceased loved one, you are in the right place. From uncontested estate administration to complex will contests, we offer support and guidance to resolve your matter as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
We put ourselves in your shoes and get it.

Real People
We’re selective with our clients so that service and quality of representation are never compromised. We take the time to get to know you and the facts surrounding your case before agreeing to representation. That way, if your problem requires a specialization outside of our areas of expertise, we will help you find a better path.
Commitment, availability, and responsiveness are what distinguishes us from other firms. Your case will not get passed from lawyer-to-lawyer, billing time along the way. We get right to it to determine what work is best delegated to a paralegal or clerical staff so that you get what you pay for, and feel good about the process.
