Your Family’s Future
Doesn’t have to be decided in court.
Compassionate legal guidance
for navigating divorce with dignity and strength.

Divorce doesn’t have to destroy everything you’ve built. At Jernigan Family Law, I help women in Tennessee navigate separation and divorce while protecting what matters most: your children, your assets, and your peace of mind.
I’m Lauryn Jernigan, and I believe the best divorces happen outside the courtroom. Through mediation and collaborative law, we can help you reach agreements that work for your entire family.
You deserve a future you can look forward to.

Our Three Core Approaches:
Collaborative Divorce
Work with a team of professionals – attorneys, financial advisors, and family specialists – to create comprehensive agreements without court battles. This approach saves money, time, and relationships.
Divorce Mediation
As a trained mediator, I help both parties reach fair agreements together. It’s faster, less expensive, and gives you control over the outcome instead of leaving decisions to a judge.
Strategic Negotiation
When litigation can’t be avoided, I provide strong, strategic representation focused on resolution rather than escalation. Your goals drive every decision.
