TBA Law Blog


Posted by: Suzanne Craig Robertson on Apr 24, 2020

The May issue of the Tennessee Bar Journal is online today — one week early — in an effort to bring you the latest in law-related updates regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. In it you'll find ways to "work through the pandemic," with links to the TBA's pandemic resources page and results from a recent member survey about lawyers' common concerns. Read how to handle having documents witnessed and notarized, how to navigate the new paid-leave mandates, plus the options for using force majeure. Also, learn about child custody in this uncertain time, and see what some of your colleagues' home offices look like. "You will see from the articles in this edition the many steps that have been taken by, or with input from, your TBA to deal with the upheaval that COVID-19 has caused,"  Sarah Y. Sheppeard writes in this issue. "I find hope in the many things for which I am thankful, hope that we will get through this together."
