Some Nashville attorneys take the scenic route to the profession

Sometimes, the path to becoming a lawyer is direct. Major in political science or something else lawyer-y, take the LSAT your senior year and move right into law school after graduating.

For other people, the path is more circuitous. Last year, we profiled Frances Perkins’ journey from high-end global art consultant and gallerist to associate at Sherrard Roe Voigt & Harbison. Musicians from bands including Bully andFuturebirds have gone on to law school and careers as attorneys.
