A formidable advocate who delivers exceptional results

When our medical practice faced a complex malpractice lawsuit, the stakes were incredibly high. We turned to Bill Godbold at Leitner Williams based on his sterling reputation in Nashville for defending healthcare professionals. His 17 years of focused experience in this arena were immediately apparent. Bill meticulously dissected the case, combining a deep understanding of Tennessee medical law with a strategic, calm demeanor that instilled confidence throughout our entire team. His guidance was not only legally astute but also practical, always keeping our long-term interests in focus. The case was resolved favorably, protecting our practice's reputation. Bill's recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in medical malpractice defense is clearly well-earned. For any professional facing litigation, he is the first and only call you need to make.
