John Farris handled a complex state-level regulatory issue for our small business. His deep knowledge of the Tennessee legislative process, built over 17 years, was evident, and his recognition in government relations practice is well-deserved. He successfully navigated the lobbying effort to a satisfactory resolution. However, our experience was mixed. While the legal outcome was good, we sometimes experienced delays in receiving updates or responses to emails, which created some uncertainty during the process. For straightforward government affairs matters, his expertise from Phelps Dunbar is solid, but be prepared to manage communication expectations proactively.
