Pierce Elected Fellow of Tennessee Bar Foundation

Donna L. Pierce has recently been elected a Fellow of the Tennessee Bar Foundation, an association of 620 attorneys across the state.  Invitations to membership, which is a position of honor, were extended to 33 attorneys this year by the Board of Trustees.  The introduction of new Fellows took place in January at the annual Fellows' Dinner in Nashville.

The Bar Foundation's purpose is two-fold: to honor attorneys who have distinguished themselves in the profession and to administer a grant-making program that supports law-related public interest projects.  Local recipients of funds from the Foundation include Community Reconciliation, Inc., Southeast Tennessee Legal Services and Legal Aid of East Tennessee.

Pierce is a shareholder in the firm of Chambliss, Bahner & Stophel, P.C.  She received her undergraduate and law degrees from the University of South Carolina and has been licensed to practice law in Tennessee since 1982.
