About Mr. Charles C. Harrison
Mr. Charles C. Harrison Jr. chose a steady, traditional path into the law. He completed undergraduate studies at Emory & Henry College in 2002, earning a B.A. in political science and religion. Four years later he received his J.D. from the University of Tennessee College of Law in 2006. Those years shaped a methodical approach to legal work and a familiarity with Tennessee’s legal institutions.
Following law school, Harrison established his practice in Tennessee. He is admitted to practice in the state and has spent his career operating within its courts and administrative fora. His background reflects the arc of many attorneys who trained at a regional law school and then stayed to practice in the communities that trained them. Colleagues describe an attorney who attends to procedural detail and to the expectations of judges and opposing counsel.
Harrison’s early professional years included standard responsibilities for a Tennessee lawyer: drafting pleadings, handling discovery, and appearing in hearings. Those routine tasks often form the backbone of day-to-day practice. He has worked on matters that required sustained attention to filings and case management, and he developed practical habits that keep cases moving.
Over time his docket has required both courtroom appearances and out-of-court problem solving. He has appeared before trial judges and taken part in settlement discussions. He is comfortable managing the procedural demands of litigation and the paperwork of transactional matters. That combination allows him to advise clients on where a dispute might reasonably land if it proceeds to trial, and when a negotiated outcome may be more appropriate.
Education remains a touchstone for Harrison. His undergraduate focus in political science and religion informs how he frames disputes and reads statutory text. His law school training emphasized the mechanics of litigation and statutory interpretation. He brings those tools to each matter he handles and applies them in the context of Tennessee law.
Outside the courtroom he maintains the routines of private practice: client meetings, drafting, and coordinating with experts when a matter demands it. He adapts to the practical demands of deadlines and court calendars. He is a steady presence for clients who require an attorney admitted in Tennessee.
He currently practices in Tennessee, representing clients in state courts and administrative proceedings across the state.
