J. Ross Pepper Profile & Reviews

I had a very poor experience with Ross. He remained inattentive during the entire process leading up to litigation. I literally had to repeat myself over and over and constantly remind him of details and he would still forget. What is horrible is that I spent countless hours doing this while he was charging me a hefty hourly fee. He would “nickel and dime me” when it came to everything. He also came unprepared to the case and of course we did NOT prevail as he expected we would. I do not recommend him at all. He did not do his due diligence in my case and his fees were ridiculous. He would bill for himself and his associates. I received multiple double billing statements where he claimed he was billing the same rate for his associate when his associate was “working” with him. Be careful they can double bill you for 17 hours at a time. If it showed they were doing the work I would have less of a problem with it, but in my case Ross was clueless.

We have worked with Ross Pepper when we needed local counsel. They are smart, diligent, and effective. Look forward to working with them again.

Being in a legal situation is never pleasant and something that is very emotionally and financially draining, so if you find yourself in such a situation, having a highly experienced, ethical, thoughtful, and caring legal team is critical to getting to a successful outcome sooner rather than later. Ross Pepper and his team are just that team you need. They are the best legal team you can work with and it was truly a pleasure and a huge comfort to have them supporting us in a recent very complex case that involved a boundary dispute, trespass tree removal claim, a frivolous monetary claim, and a property easement dispute. The level of strategy, honesty, and spot-on legal advice that Ross and his team provided in partnering with us as clients is second to none. While I hope we never have to deal with another legal situation like this, Ross Pepper and his firm will be my first call if and when we do. Thank you to Ross Pepper, Dan Whitaker, Beth Alexander, and Tanner Kitrell for your partnership, expertise, and a favorable outcome for a very arduous, complex, and 2-years long case! -Shauna Shaik and Jason Jared, Nashville, TN
