Before entering private practice, Robin spent seven years working directly with children and families as a Case Manager for the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services (DCS).

Following her work as a case manager, Robin spent several years as a legal assistant, gaining hands-on experience in litigation support, case preparation, and courtroom procedure. She then advanced into a legal and legislative role with the Department of Children’s Services, where she worked for two years in rule promulgation, legislative affairs, assisting with policy analysis, statutory interpretation, and the intersection of law and public policy affecting children and families across Tennessee.

In June 2025, Robin transitioned into private practice, where she now represents clients in Criminal Defense, Family Law, Juvenile Court matters, Probate, Conservatorships, and Adoption. She is known for her ability to quickly identify core issues, explain complex legal processes in plain language, and advocate effectively both inside and outside the courtroom.
