R. H. (Chip) Chockley earned his Juris Doctor at the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law in 2000. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Memphis in 1995. Those two local degrees anchored an early career that has remained centered in Tennessee.
After law school, Chockley became involved in the local bar community. He has held membership in the Memphis Bar Association since 2001 and is also a member of the Tennessee Bar Association from the same year. Those affiliations have been part of a steady professional presence in the region for more than two decades.
Chockley is admitted to practice in Tennessee and before the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. He also holds admission to the United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee. Those credentials allow him to handle matters at both the trial and appellate levels in federal and state courts serving the region.
His current firm affiliation is Wolff Ardis, P.C. The record lists him at that firm, where he works alongside other attorneys on a range of matters. Public details do not specify the date he joined the firm or an official title, but his inclusion on the roster indicates an active role in the firm’s practice.
Colleagues and clients describe Chockley as pragmatic and straightforward in the courtroom. He combines courtroom experience in federal and state forums with a background rooted in Memphis legal circles. That combination shapes how he approaches cases and counsel, favoring clear argument and attention to procedural detail over flourish.
Outside of direct practice, Chockley’s long-standing membership in local and state bar organizations suggests an ongoing engagement with the professional community. He has maintained those memberships continuously since 2001, a span that covers most of his legal career. He maintains a practice at Wolff Ardis, P.C., handling federal and state matters in Tennessee.
