Gordon Law Group

Since 1990, Robin has called Music Row home for his legal practice. He was first introduced to private practice as an associate with a well-known litigation and entertainment firm in Nashville, TN. During his early years, he represented artists such as George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Ronnie Milsap, and Garth Brooks.

In 1996, Robin created the Gordon Law Group, PLC with a focus on entertainment, small business, and litigation. With his new practice, Robin continued to represent publishing companies, record labels, and influential songwriters, musicians, and artists. The firm has expanded its focus since its beginning in the mid-nineties to represent clients in contract negotiations, litigation, general business issues, domestic matters, and estate planning.

While a person might come to Gordon Law Group for one pressing legal issue, there are often other areas in which they need assistance, whether today or ten years down the road. To best serve our people, Robin uses this philosophy to offer the best legal counsel. He is more concerned with your journey and creating the best possible outcome for the future. The Gordon Law Group exists to help people navigate their present joys or tribulations while planning for the future, so you can leave our office with more peace of mind than when you entered.
