Criminal defense attorney Carter H. Schoolfield, 84, died Wednesday at his home on Signal Mountain. A graduate of the Cumberland School of Law at Samford, Schoolfield built his law practice in Chattanooga and came to be known as a fierce trial attorney. He also was an avid outdoorsman and later owned one of area’s premier marine dealerships. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be sent to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. A private celebration of life will be held for family and close friends.
