Helping You Find Your Path of Least Resistance

Our firm provides exceptional legal representation marked by:

  • Listening
  • Sound counsel
  • The big picture
  • The right approach
  • Compassion

“I tell my clients right away: ‘We are a team.’ I have legal knowledge and experience, but I haven’t lived your life. Only you can tell me about your situation and your goals. Then I can help you understand your options, and together we can work to get you the best outcome possible as I walk you through the legal process.”

Over 20 Years of Divorce & Family Law Experience 

With more than 20 years of experience as a Chattanooga family law attorney, Ms. Vital represents Hamilton County, Tennessee, clients in all aspects of their divorce.

The firm helps a range of clients, including people who are over 50 and experiencing “gray divorce” to those who are active duty military or veterans who are currently going through a divorce. Attorney Patricia Best Vital has extensive experience handling property division, including division of retirement benefits and other complex asset distribution matters.

A Personalized Approach

“In more than 20 years as an attorney, many clients have come to me after working with another firm, and they tell me that their former lawyers didn’t listen to them. These attorneys just assumed what they would do, and they left the client out of the picture. That is not how I treat my clients. At Vital Law Office & Dispute Resolution Services, we will work as a team. If I am going to help you reach your goals, I need to listen to you and understand your situation, so that’s what I will do.”

A Family Law Attorney You Can Trust

When facing divorce-related disputes like child custody, complex division of property matters and spousal support, you need a lawyer you can trust. In addition to the financial and personal stakes being high in every aspect of divorce, throughout the process you will also face difficult, emotionally charged decisions. There is no substitute for an experienced, knowledgeable advocate at your side. Patricia Best Vital, founding attorney of Vital Law Office & Dispute Resolution Services, is an advocate who can help you.
