TBA Law Blog

The TBA had back-to-back female presidents in 2012 and 2013, and both of them launched strong programs to serve the Tennessee legal community and the public at large. Nashville attorney and Grainger County native Jackie Dixon showed her passion for the law and the legal profession with programs geared toward the development of new lawyers, support of established attorneys and guidance for veteran lawyers nearing the end of their careers. Dixon handed off the gavel to Sevierville attorney Cindy Wyrick, who carried that effort forward with programs for small firm practitioners, an added focus on public service, and an increased emphasis on advocacy and public education that included production of the Legal Handbook for Tennessee Seniors.
