Kevin Hargis

Kevin grew up in rural East Tennessee, and currently limits his practice to that region. His parents divorced when he was nine years old, but continued to feud throughout the remainder of his childhood, giving him unique insight into the needs of Family Law clients. As a result of that divorce, Kevin changed schools multiple times before eventually graduating from Central High School in Wartburg, Tennessee. In his youth, Kevin had more than a few run-ins with The Law, and developed his desire to practice law partially as a result of having hired bad attorneys or having to represent himself because he couldn’t afford an attorney. Preferring work to school, Kevin spent several years working as a lineman before going to college. He started that career as a ditch-digger on a buried cable placement crew. From there, he advanced to lineman, then to inspector, and finally to design engineer. Looking to travel, Kevin took the jobs that no one else wanted, in places no one else wanted to go. He dug ditches, swung hammers, and climbed poles & towers. He created maps and digital models. He planned utility systems. Kevin traveled the nation building those utility systems. Doing so, he developed the skills that placed him on the team that designed the fastest internet in the world for Chattanooga’s EPB.
