Hi! I'm Amanda Jelks (formerly known as Amanda Ray). Thanks for taking the time to learn more about me and my firm.
As a Chattanooga native, I pursued my undergraduate studies at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga at Chattanooga and my law degree at the University of Memphis, both on academic scholarships. During my final year of law school, I had the distinct pleasure of working with the corporate legal department of an airline. Following my graduation, I spent five formative years at a prominent regional firm where I handled complex business matters.
Leslie A. Starritt joined the firm in 2020 bringing seven years of estate planning, elder law, and Medicaid planning experience to the firm. As a Tennessee native, Leslie attended the University of Tennessee College of Law near her hometown of Maryville, TN. After her first year of practicing law, she relocated to London, England and later to Gloucester, Massachusetts where she lived and practiced law for seven years. Leslie has extensive experience in developing estate plans that look at the entire family and ensure that no stone goes unturned.
