I can not put into words how professional , compassionate, concerned and responsive Mr Oaks was in our conversation regarding a tough situation with my family member. He was honest and upfront with every question. He was unable to take my case, but recommended another attorney who I will contact for assistance. An asset to the law profession in Knoxville. I highly recommend him!

Called and left a message with the office and Seth promptly returned my call. We spoke about the potential probate issue I am needing to address and he provided great advice and information to assist with moving forward on the resolution, and was kind enough to follow up with a step-by-step email for me to use when speaking with a local attorney in my state (I am not currently residing in TN). Thanks very much for the info and guidance Seth!

Seth Oakes professionally handled all of our family's estate planning matters. It took our family quite some time to make the necessary decisions. Seth was patient with us the entire time. He listened to our concerns and addressed each item to help guide us along. We are confident our family's matters are now documented properly and are grateful to Seth for his excellent services.

During a recent family medical situation, I found Seth and his firm to be prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. Could not have done our estate planning without him. Could not ask for a better attorney.
