Great evening at the Evening at GEODIS Park fundraiser benefiting Legal Aid Society Middle TN

It was inspiring to see so many people supporting an organization that does such important work for our community. I was lucky to attend with my staff, even if we forgot to grab a group photo together. Looking forward to supporting this event again next year.

Why is a law firm sponsoring an art show?

Because we believe art changes lives.
The law can help people navigate some of life’s hardest moments. Art helps people make sense of them.

That’s why we’re proud to support Make It Perfect where Ryan Rado and Dylan Wilson create a painting together while sharing an unscripted conversation that unfolds in real time.

When artists take risks, communities grow stronger.

Come experience it with us.

🎉 Please join me in welcoming Corey Anne to the Law Office of J. Ryan Johnson! 🎉

We are excited to have Corey Anne join our team and bring her unique combination of legal and operational experience to our firm.

Corey Anne earned her Bachelor of Science in Legal Studies from the University of Central Florida (Go Knights! ⚔️) and Associate degrees in Paralegal Studies and General Education from Valencia College.

She spent several years working in Florida family law, where she developed extensive experience in case management, discovery, and delivering exceptional client service.

In addition to her legal background, Corey Anne has significant experience in law firm operations, including hiring and training, workflow development, and creating systems that improve efficiency. Her understanding of both client-facing legal work and behind-the-scenes operations makes her an invaluable addition to our growing team.

Originally from Atlanta, Corey Anne spent the last eight years in Florida before recently relocating to Middle Tennessee with her family. When she’s not at work, you’ll likely find her exploring local antique shops, reading, diving into history, or embracing her love of all things a little spooky.

We’re thrilled to have Corey Anne on board and look forward to the positive impact she’ll make for our clients and our firm. Welcome to the team, Corey Anne!

They call it The Four Horsemen of Divorce.

Did you know the reason his contract was so great was because Mets ownership believed money they had invested would outpace this debt substantially.

The problem was the money was invested with Bernie Madoff!

Happy Bobby Bonilla Deferral Day: Bonilla is set to collect another $1.193 million from the New York Mets today, as he will each July 1st through the year 2035.

It is almost impossible to play youth baseball at this point without buying from Dick’s.

Here’s what it takes to survive another year of Little League these days. There are sleek composite bats that cost up to $450. There are training bats, wood bats, torpedo bats and backpacks to carry them.

Plus, gloves, helmets, elbow guards, leg protectors, arm sleeves, sliding mitts, cleats, turf shoes, the coolest sunglasses, Bruce Bolt batting gloves, fluorescent batting grips, socks, pants, belts and garments known simply as “ice-cream shorts.”

Also, headbands. Do kids really need a headband if they are always wearing a hat or helmet? Don’t be ridiculous. Of course they do.

Baseball hasn’t looked the same since a minor tweak in Major League Baseball’s rulebook before the 2019 season loosened the color restrictions on player cleats. The effects of that deregulation have now trickled all the way down to Little Leaguers, who race to get their hands on the latest, hottest equipment.

When a sick bat comes out, it sells out almost instantly. There is so much demand for these hunks of carbon fiber that bats have entered the stratosphere of products known in the retail industry as “high heat.”

And all that heat isn’t cheap. Parents have never spent more time and money on youth sports—or at this sports juggernaut.

We took a little sabbatical from social media for the holidays, but wanted to share our office holiday party at IVE! At Opryland

Walking through the frozen scenes, bundling up in the blue parkas, and seeing all the Peanuts characters carved out of ice really made it feel like Christmas. Definitely one of our favorite holiday memories. 🎄💙

Also, enjoy our holiday voicemail!
