SHELBY COUNTY LAWYER DISBARRED
Effective April 14, 2023, the Supreme Court of Tennessee permanently disbarred Glenda Ann Adams
from the practice of law and ordered her to pay all costs incurred to the Board of Professional Responsibility.
After a default hearing upon the disciplinary petition, the Hearing Panel determined by a preponderance
of the evidence that Ms. Adamsâ felony convictions for conspiracy to violate the travel act and bribery of a
public servant constituted conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation; conduct that was
prejudicial to the administration of justice and conduct that reflected adversely on her honesty, trustworthiness,
or fitness as a lawyer.
The Panel found Ms. Adamsâ conduct violated Tennessee Rules of Professional Conduct 8.4(a), (b), (c),
and (d) (misconduct) and warranted permanent disbarment.
