About
Founded 1865
Founded in 1865 by Charles W. Metcalf, Apperson Crump PLC proudly holds the title of the longest-established law firm in Memphis, Tennessee. As a testament to its esteemed reputation, members of the firm have received accolades from their legal peers and have held prominent positions such as President and Board Director within the Memphis Bar Association; many have advanced to serve as judges. The current team boasts officers and fellows involved with national legal associations, underlining its commitment to excellence—evidenced by an “av” rating from Martindale-Hubbell. Although not rigidly divided into sections, attorneys at Apperson Crump often focus on distinct practice areas within a broad spectrum of civil law. This encompasses various fields including general litigation and administrative work related to real estate transactions, commercial lending solutions (including mortgage financing), zoning regulations, banking issues, personal injury claims—including medical malpractice disputes—and corporate law matters among others ranging from family affairs to bankruptcy processes and immigration concerns.
