MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE, UNITED STATES, December 28, 2023 / EINPresswire.com / — The Law Office of David E. Gordon proudly announces that Elissa M. Coombs , an esteemed litigation attorney, has attained Board Certification as a Civil Practice Advocate by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. This distinction marks a remarkable achievement in legal excellence for Ms. Coombs and makes the firm’s practicing legal team 100% board certified, a distinction fewer than 2 percent of Tennessee lawyers hold.
Board Certification stands as one of the most rigorous and reputable distinctions an attorney can achieve. It reflects the thorough examination of an attorney’s skills, experience, and integrity by a national board of experts, providing the public confidence that a particular lawyer has the tools and talent to provide excellent representation.
To become board-certified, Elissa underwent a comprehensive evaluation process. This included submitting names of judges and lawyers for independent verification of her skills, passing a rigorous day-long written examination, presenting actual copies of her legal work for review, and providing documentation of active involvement in at least 100 court cases.
Before joining the firm, she worked for 17 years as a defense attorney, primarily handling maritime cases. Elissa’s work as a defense attorney gives her unique insight into how insurance companies evaluate and defend personal injury cases.
Elissa is admitted to practice in all Tennessee and Mississippi state courts, numerous United States District Courts, and both the Fifth and Sixth Circuit United States Courts of Appeals. Elissa also has been certified as a Proctor in Admiralty by the Maritime Law Association of the United States.
Certification is a critical factor in negotiating with insurance companies, demonstrating a lawyer’s capability to handle cases effectively. This distinction ensures that the firm’s attorneys possess the tools and talent necessary to provide outstanding representation. For clients, this can translate to fair compensation and the knowledge that their attorney can pursue trial if necessary.
