Putting Your Best Interests First

At Daniel Goodge Law & Mediation, PLLC, our priority is helping you get results. We have advocated for clients throughout the Knoxville metro area.

We love helping ordinary people overcome legal problems. Whether you need fierce representation to confront criminal charges, thorough legal advice for family law issues or strong advocacy in a personal injury claim, we are lawyers who have the skills and experience to help you.

Mediation Is Often A Better Way Forward

The courtroom is not always the best forum to resolve disputes. Litigation is stressful, spendy and unpredictable.

Mediation, however, gives you more control over the outcome and is usually quicker and less expensive than litigation. We are Rule 31 mediators who are trained and skilled in helping parties reach amicable and practical resolutions to complex disputes.

We are experienced in mediating divorce settlements, child custody disputes, breach of contract, probate conflicts and other challenges, including the sensitive issue of helping families work through the aftermath of domestic violence. We invite you to explore whether mediation is the right path for your situation.

If mediation is not an option or you have already exhausted peaceful negotiation opportunities, we are also experienced trial lawyers who are well-equipped to represent you in contested court proceedings.

We Will Aim To Achieve The Right Solution To Your Legal Issue

When you hire our law firm to handle your legal case, you will gain access to knowledgeable advocates who will be with you through every step of the legal process.

Our lawyers will thoroughly review your case and explain your legal options.

Ultimately, we strive to achieve the outcome that best fits your circumstances and goals.
