Meet Our Team

Nicole

Matt
Client Services

- is the guy who is responsible for our logistics - he tries to make sure the right things are at the right place at the right time. You'll find Matt chiming in to help many times when most attorney offices are closed. He takes great pleasure in pleasant surprises.

Logan
Legal Assistant

- comes to us as we seek to fill some of the lapses that a transition from normal business hours to something approaching a 24/7 service entails. Logan has a cum laude BA from Indiana University as well as a MPA from GWU and is fluent in two languages.

Jordan
Digital Guru

- is in charge of our digital services. That includes social media, web site building, and those videos you see that proudly say Made in Tennessee. That's Jordan, up there in the attic, with the heavy horsepower GPU's, CPU's and oceans of RAM, churning them out.


Steve
paralegal

- has a few old degrees, a few old US Patents, and a few decades experience as an officer of a publicly traded electronics maker. His job is to make sure all our digital and communications stuff is running, but he’s easily distracted if coaxed into telling tall tales of racing and flying.

Rosemarie

- a native of Frankfurt, Germany, she became a US Citizen in 1968. Her experience includes 27 years in accounting and personnel for the Army. As a notary of long standing, her job is to make sure your papers are in order and your documents are duly signed and witnessed beyond any hint of a question.

Caroline
Legal Assistant

- this lady is from down state Illinois where she was a born and bred Saluki fan. Now she seems to be warming to Tigers and Grizzlies. A mom of two great kids, we knew Caroline would be accustomed to a certain level of chaos. She hasn't disappointed, and pitches right in to straighten things out to the benefit of our clients.

Robbie
Sort of Different

- Robbie is not an attorney. Robbie is not even human. But he reads a lot of information on the web, and he is always here trying to answer your question. Learn more about Robbie below. Also, Robbie has been joined by Marie and Bob - variations in large language models. We have three because each offers different advantages to our clients.

Robbie of Burdette Law Ask a question of Robbie. Simply type in your question, then press, or touch, or click the arrow.

Chat with Robbie, our Info-Bot

Robbie is our chat system info-bot. He is equipped to provide you with basic, handy information. The info he will give you is gennerally available on the web.
So think of Robbie as a kind of librarian. If you ask him a question, he will quickly sort through his library and type out an answer for you.

Robbie is certainly not an attorney. His job is to give you basic information in layman's terms, if you are a potential client, or a client who wants a quick answer to a question that has occured to you in the middle of the night, or on a weekend. Robbie will search out and read things that are relevant to your question, then report back to you with an answer very, very rapidly.

Pleaese remember that Robbie is a relatively new 'employee'. He may not have the experience or the information to accurately answer each and every question - but he learns very rapidly. He is also a very literal individual, so keep that in mind when you ask Robbie a question. For example, if you ask Robbie where he is, he will tell you he is a kind of cyber being with no fixed location. But if you ask him where Burdette Law is located, he will give you an address. Robbie will not answer personal questions, and after repeated un-answerable questions outside his scope of learning, he may shut down and stop talking.

For most subjects the best way to learn from Robbie is to start with a gneral question, then follow up with a more specific question. When you have exhausted Robbie's knowledge on a subject, he will tell you that, and refer you to a human being.

If you think there is someting Robbie should know but does not, please tell us. If Robbie behaves erratically, please tell us that too. Click here to tell us about Robbie's behavior, or his shortcomings, or to simply contact a human.

For legal advice you must consult with a licensed attorney. Neither this system nor the people answering our phones can give you valid legal advice, as they are not licensed attorneys. You must schedule an appointment with an attorney who can speak to you about all the various factors involved in your particular case before receiving valid legal advice.


Please remember - Robbie is not an attorney, but he is here to help.
