      Biography

      Mr. Higgins is a Nashville native. He attended the University of Tennessee where he graduated with honors and returned to home to work with a large insurance defense law firm. About 17 years ago Mr. Higgins left the defense practice and created a firm that only represents injured victims and their families. To better serve his clients the firm is broken down into specific litigation groups, such as the nursing home neglect division and serious injury division.

      Mr. Higgins is a member of the million dollar advocates forum, recognized by Best Lawyers and is a board member of the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association.

        Jim represented his client well in the matter we had. He was professional and courteous and the same time zealously representing his client.
