A Little About Me

I am a native of Illinois, but have called Tennessee home since I was 9 years old.

My life outside of practicing law is very busy as my wife Lindsey and I have a large family.  I enjoy spending time with her, our children, and our grandson.  I love being outdoors hiking, grilling, running, and our annual family lake and beach trips, anything sports related, golf, coaching flag football and other sports, traveling with my wife and family, trying new restaurants downtown, and watching the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Besides my family, what is most important to me is my relationship with Jesus Christ.  Faith and family are the catalyst of everything I hold dear in life. 

Journey to the Law

I knew from a young age I wanted to be a lawyer.  I graduated from Austin Peay State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science and Psychology and earned my J.D. from The University of Tulsa College of Law. 

I was admitted to the Tennessee Bar in 2004 and am admitted to practice law before all state trial courts in Tennessee, the Tennessee Court of Appeals, and the Tennessee Supreme Court.  He is also licensed to practice before the U.S. District Courts for the Middle, Eastern, and Western Districts of Tennessee, and the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.  For over 21 years, I have represented clients in general civil litigation, estate and probate planning, and estate and probate litigation, declaratory judgment actions, family law, and appellate procedure and matters.

I have served as first chair in hundreds of trials, both jury and non-jury, with over 21 plus years of litigation work.  I’ve also managed several litigation offices during my tenure directing litigation for multiple attorneys.

My experience has led to me to serving as a speaker at numerous seminars throughout the State of Tennessee for insurance claims representatives, insurance companies, members of the Tennessee Bar at CLE seminars, and the Tennessee Bar Association involving multiple areas of law including jury and non-jury trial work, insurance, complex litigation, negotiations, settlements, arbitrations, mediations, and estate planning and probate.   

I am a graduate of the National Institute of Trial Advocacy, and a graduate of the Insurance Institute of America.

    Hear From Our Clients

    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.

    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.

    I cannot recommend Thomas Steelman highly enough! From the very start, he made the entire process of setting up our estate trust absolutely painless. His expertise and clear explanations turned what I expected to be a daunting task into a smooth and stress-free experience.

    Not only did he handle every aspect of our estate trust with great attention to detail, but he (and law firm colleagues) also took care of transferring over our home deeds so we didn’t have to deal with the hassle of going to the county office ourselves. That alone saved us so much time and stress!

    I honestly thought the process was going to cost a small fortune, but I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the pricing was. Most importantly, though, Thomas gave us peace of mind knowing that our hard-earned assets are protected and will go exactly where we want them—without placing unnecessary burdens on our loved ones.

    If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and professional estate trust attorney, Thomas and team are the ones to trust. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
