Jeffery Shane Roberts

Born and raised in Middle Tennessee, Jeff Roberts respects honesty, hard work and the dedication it takes to do a job well.

Jeff grew up in Gallatin, Tennessee where he was part of a working-class family. His father spent his career either working in a factory or driving an 18 wheeler; his mother worked as a teacher’s aide in the Sumner County Schools. The hometown values and working class roots pushed Jeff to work just as hard for his future. As a result, he became the first college graduate on either side of his family after earning political science degrees from both Volunteer State Community College and Middle Tennessee State University. He worked three separate jobs during these years to help pay his way through college. While in college he studied Wado-Ryu Karate and he was a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.

After earning his law degree and license in 1999, Jeff Roberts devoted every day of his legal career to protecting the rights of injured and disabled people. Injury claims/wrongful death claims he has worked include: workers’ compensation, commercial truck wrecks, automobile accidents, premises liability cases, social security disability, civil rights claims, Governmental Tort Liability Claims, ERISA long-term disability denied claims and other disability denials. He is admitted to practice in all state courts of Tennessee, the U.S. District Court of the United States for the Middle District of Tennessee, the U.S. District Court of the United States for the Western District of Tennessee and the U.S. District Court of the United States for the Eastern District.

He went on to co-found a very successful Nashville law firm that focused its practice on plaintiff’s personal injury for almost 14 years. In 2016, Jeff formed his own law firm, Jeff Roberts & Associates, PLLC, where he continues to represent injured clients throughout Tennessee.
