Utility Districts
- Our workshops are unique and approved to provide Commissioner training hours required by the T.C.A. §7-34-115 and §7-82-307 and 308. We gather and analyze customer consumption data of the Utility. This data is used in the training workshop and allows the Board to see the financial impact of potential decisions. Not only are you learning and obtaining approved training hours, Board members are getting information to make critical financial decisions for the Utility. “Powerful”, “Insightful”, “Invaluable”, “Every Utility should be required to do this” are just some of the comments from participants of these workshops.

Litigation Support Services
Seeking and Speaking the Facts
- Litigation can be difficult and scary. We have worked in litigation matters in State Court including Chancery Court, Circuit Court, and the Court of Appeals, as well as Federal Bankruptcy Court. The cases we have been engaged involved contract negotiation, forensic accounting, business dissolution, marital dissolution, and mergers and acquisitions. Our services sometimes involve testimony through depositions and at trial to show the truth of the matter.
- Having experience in the courtroom allows us to help you understand the process and also work with you and your attorney to develop strategies and plans to address the current situation and work toward the closure of your case.
