I hired Mac to handle a personal injury case for my family. He did an excellent job representing our best interests while taking the time to explain the process in detail. I would highly recommend Mac to anyone looking for a lawyer who truly cares about their clients.- Kevin

Mac is the best lawyer in East Tennessee. He done everything he said he would. It's hard to find a lawyer that will do what they say they will do. He got my charges dropped you couldn't ask for a better man. Thank you Mac.- James

The first thing that struck me about Mac was that he is very prompt about getting back with you on emails or phone calls. I met with him and he was very attentive and made me comfortable immediately by just the way he talked and reassured me.- Dianne

I was very pleased with the way Mr. Meade and his staff handled my case. They always kept me up to date on what was going on and was there to answer any questions I may have had. Mr. Meade went above and beyond to help me with a problem we were having that wasn't even part of the case he was handling. I would highly recommend Mr. Meade and if the need every arises will definitely hire him again.- Michelle
