Geran E. Minor

I am Geran E. Minor, a devoted attorney at Landry & Azevedo, concentrating my practice in family law, adoption law, and juvenile matters, including cases of divorce, post-divorce matters, child custody, child support, dependency, neglect, severe abuse, and orders of protection. I am licensed to practice in Tennessee. My drive to work in family and juvenile law stems from my own experiences. As a child, I endured the challenges of a hostile divorce, a custody battle, and a dependency and neglect case. These experiences did not hold me back but instead motivated me to advocate passionately for children and families facing similar crises. I handle every case with empathy, offering the compassionate guidance that I once needed. Adoption is particularly holds a special place in my heart. In my first year of law school, I learned that my twin brother and I had not been legally adopted by our stepfather, despite having changed our last names. I took it upon myself to draft the adoption pleadings as a Father’s Day gift. A month later, I stood in court to finalize my own adoption. This personal journey has deepened my commitment to assisting others in building and safeguarding the families they hold dear. I graduated with a J.D. from Lincoln Memorial University’s Duncan School of Law in 2023. During my time at law school, I held the position of President of the Student Bar Association (SBA), engaged in the Mock Trial Program, and won the school's Kimsey Cup Intramural Mock Trial Competition. At graduation, I was awarded the prestigious Leadership Award, a recognition from the faculty for my significant contributions to the law school community.
