RITCHIE, DILLARD, DAVIES & JOHNSON
KNOXVILLE, TENN.
Ritchie, Dillard, Davies & Johnson, which packs a punch in state
felony and federal white-collar criminal defense matters, marks
its 50th year in 2014. This Knoxville team has decades of trial
experience. “Being relentless in our investigation of the facts
and researching the law, and being focused continually on the
ultimate issue in the case, which is preparing the case for trial, is
what differentiates us so many times from others that may not
have that same focus,” says attorney Stephen Ross Johnson.
LAW OFFICES OF J. MICHAEL SMALL
ALEXANDRIA, LA.
J. Michael Small takes on federal white-collar crime, public
corruption and first- and second-degree murder cases, of which
he has handled hundreds since 1969. One career highlight
was the acquittal of all 43 charges against former Louisiana
Gov. Edwin Edwards. “Mike Small is the best criminal defense
lawyer I have ever dealt with,” says Edwards. “He is smooth,
knowledgeable and alert, and most of all he knows how to deal
with judges … and is very persuasive with a jury.”
