A Little About Me

While I was born in Michigan, I was raised in Tennessee. Watching Middle Tennessee evolve and grow has been fascinating. Can you believe there were actually times you could travel through Nashville and not hit a pothole or a huge delay in traffic in the middle of the day? The upside to the growth in Middle Tennessee is the array of activities and restaurants seem infinite! I enjoy checking out the various greenways around town, playing a round at Topgolf with my family, or cheering on the Nashville Predators during their home games at Bridgestone Arena. 

I have both four-legged children and two-legged children. Some days, it is hard to decide which ones I like more! I am an avid animal lover, so much so that I generally do not even kill bugs but release them instead.  I also love to travel, whether it’s to the mountains, the beach, or across the pond. There are very few places I would not want to visit. My goal is to travel to all the places my father has on his bucket list. The Mediterranean is our next stop!  

Journey to the Law

My original career choice was to be a dental hygienist; however, after helping with a custody case, I felt my calling was to become a paralegal. I began my journey with Southeastern Career College, and the rest is history. I have enjoyed learning about the legal world and getting to help clients through their life journeys, some of which have turned into lifelong friends!  

Prior to joining Crow Estate Planning & Probate, I worked nearly eighteen years alongside two family law attorneys in Sumner County, Tennessee. Throughout my career, I learned about the depths of family law. I developed deep relationships with our clients while guiding them through some of the more difficult times of their lives. 

I am excited to deepen my knowledge in the estate planning and probate practice areas and look forward to assisting you with your matter!

    I had a great experience working with Crow Estate Planning and Probate. They made the entire process of writing my will feel simple, organized, and far less overwhelming than I expected. From start to finish, they were professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain everything and made sure all of my questions were answered, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I truly appreciated how smooth and efficient the process was, while still feeling very personal and thorough. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for help with estate planning!

    Professional above all expectations. Every question asked answered to understanding. Took time to tailor my request to the exact detail. Documents were explained to the details there in before signing. Super friendly and not showing sign of disconcerting attitude. I respect this firm and they have my “complete” trust.

    Bill Boyd

    Where do I begin? I truly can’t say enough nice things about Crow Estate Planning & Probate and Alexandra Hulme, without her and everyone around her, I can truly say I don’t know where I would be today. Like many after losing my mother, I was lost, in a dark place and things weren’t happening how my mother had planned in her trust and will. Before waiting too long, I retained Alexandra’s services and she took me through the process step-by-step. Something that I never thought I could afford or I’d have to do. She knew I wasn’t asking her to do anything more than complete my mother’s last wishes. She did just that. They did it because they’re passionate about what they do. Communication was A+. She never left me hanging. I know family means a lot to her/them. I am indebted to her and these people forever. If you need help, call her today. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Alexandra from the bottom of my heart.
     
     

    Travis Henry

    I was referred to John by a fellow real estate investor when I needed guidance on structuring a couple of LLCs. From the start, he made the process incredibly smooth and straightforward. John was consistently responsive, thorough in his explanations, and showed a genuine commitment to getting everything completed on time—even working late to accommodate my schedule while I was operating from Hawaii, several time zones away. His mix of professionalism, attention to detail, and approachable demeanor made the entire experience seamless. I’m grateful to have him as a resource and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable attorney.

    This firm has done several things for me and real estate clients. Most recently setting up a TIST (Tennessee Investment Services Trust). And redoing my Will, Medical Power of Attorney, and Healthcare Directive. Appreciated their understanding of all of the intricacies of each document. Their timely communication and prompt service.
