Our Practice.

The attorneys in our Trusts & Estates Practice Group are highly regarded for their expertise in all aspects of estate planning. Since estate planning involves much more than preparing tax-efficient wills and trust agreements, our trusts and estates attorneys regularly provide advice to clients on a broad range of both tax and non-tax issues, including family-owned and closely held business planning, asset protection, special needs planning and general family planning. Our clients include multi-generational families, executives at Fortune 500 companies, large privately-held family businesses, entertainers, athletes and entrepreneurs. We also represent numerous nonprofit organizations, including public charities and private foundations, with technical organizational and tax planning. According to Chambers High Net Worth Guide 2018,”The ‘fantastic’ Trusts and Estates team at Bass, Berry & Sims in Nashville is ‘top-notch.’”
