Held Law Firm

I needed an attorney to help with attaining an order of protection against my financially and verbally abusive husband. I had called a few lawyers and had given up by the time that I found the held law firm. From the moment attorney Faith got on the phone with me I felt immediately at ease. For the first time I felt truly understood and that I was finally going to get help with my situation. Once I explained everything to attorney faith, it was a breeze from there, all I had to do was give her all the information and by the time we got to court she was a fierce lioness with a beautiful smile on her face while she did it. From the beginning she explained everything very clearly on how each scenario could go and what to be prepared for . She also prepared me very well prior to court I was very glad to hear from her as we're both getting to the courthouse to prep . For me to have to face my abuser I felt like she was my shield sheep protected me and also make sure that I was able to still take care of my family without having to depend on him anymore .
I never had to say a word and she handled everything with his lawyer and I didn't even have to ask her she immediately had already discussed the housing situation so that my kids and I did not have to be homeless which I think was the intention she made sure that that did not happen. I am still in disbelief to this day how smooth and easy it was and of course I am so thankful that she is also going to represent my family for the divorce as well. If you need a caring attorney that lets you feel like you are not crazy and that you are worth the fight for whatever storm you are experiencing attorney faith and her team are the best and will get you through that storm . Thank you so much

I chose Held Law Firm after careful research and consideration of several firms in the Knoxville area, during what was an incredibly difficult time in my life. From my very first interaction, Sarah made me feel heard, validated, and confident in my decision. Her compassion and reassurance gave me the motivation I needed to move forward with what felt like an overwhelming child custody battle. I am truly grateful for the comfort she provided during one of my lowest points.
I was then represented by Faith Held, and from the beginning, she worked diligently to pursue everything I was hoping to achieve. She acted quickly, remained proactive throughout the process, and consistently went above and beyond for my case. While I’ve seen some concerns about costs in other reviews, I found their pricing to be fair and reasonable. Legal matters are rarely inexpensive, and you are not only paying for court-related expenses, but also for the expertise and coordinated efforts of a professional team working toward the best possible outcome. I also appreciated that they offer third-party payment options, which was incredibly helpful for me.
While not every outcome matched my initial expectations, I fully understand that this was not due to any lack of effort on Faith’s part. When something wasn’t attainable, she worked hard to secure the next best possible result. I began working with Held Law Firm in early December, my case was progressing through the courts by the end of that same month, and by February 18th, everything was finalized—I was granted legal custody of my children. The relief I felt was indescribable. After five years of ongoing stress, it was finally resolved.
What I anticipated might take years was resolved in just under three months. Although those months were filled with anxiety and uncertainty, having Faith’s guidance and reassurance made all the difference. I also appreciated the transparency in billing—every expense was clearly outlined, which provided additional peace of mind.
I cannot express enough gratitude for Faith Held and the entire team at Held Law Firm. Everyone I encountered was professional, supportive, and welcoming. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of dedicated and compassionate legal representation. Every penny I invested was absolutely worth it.
Thank you all for everything.

This law firm is truly amazing. If you have to go through any rough patch in your life and need law support that feels like family taking care of you rather than just another case, you have to go with Held. Everyone on staff are so caring and go the extra mile to ensure you feel supported throughout your legal journey. Jonathan has been so kind, understanding, and patient with me during this turbulent time and I just cannot thank him enough. I feel I will not have regrets once my proceedings are over and that is worth more than anything in my eyes. Thank you to everyone on staff for your help during this dark period, and thank you Jonathan for working so hard to ensure women have a voice in a time when it's so easy for them to be silenced.
