Knoxville Injury Attorneys and Tennessee Criminal Defense Lawyers
Our Beginning, Our Heritage
Trusted East Tennessee Legal Professionals
It all started more than 80 years ago in Grainger County, Tennessee, where W. I. Daniel served as the Rutledge State Farm agent, country lawyer, and later became the county judge. W.I. and his wife, Velma, had two sons, Creed and Zane; both sons became lawyers.
W.I. took great pride in himself in the fact that even though this was his economic livelihood, he believed that the law profession should be a profession that helps others in need.
W. I. Daniel
Family Providing skilled legal representation to East Tennessee residents for over 80 years.
W. I. Daniel gave his sons, Creed and Zane, his endearing demeanor and innate intelligence.
As the eldest, Creed opened his legal practice in their hometown of Rutledge, Tennessee, after graduating from law school, and he has remained there ever since.
After graduating from law school in 1964, Zane started his small law practice in Knoxville, TN.
Zane started working as Knox County, Tennessee’s assistant district attorney in 1967. From 1970-1972 he was designated Chief Prosecutor.
Zane returned to private practice in 1972 after leaving the prosecutor’s office and remained practicing law until his death in 2006.
Lawyers prioritizing their heritage and values.
Zane Daniel bravely battled leukemia in 2006 but sadly lost the fight. His death left a significant hole in the East Tennessee Judicial System. He was a real “legal giant,” and those who knew him will always remember him as a class act and a gentleman. Todd and Jeff, Zane’s two sons, both went on to become lawyers and carry on their father’s legacy and traditional family values by defending the legal rights of Tennesseans and their families.
