James D. Anderson Joins Frost Brown Todd’s Nashville Office as Counsel

Nashville, TN - April 7, 2009 – Frost Brown Todd welcomes James D. Anderson to the Nashville office. Mr. Anderson will be serving as Counsel with the Business/Corporate Department. For 18 years Mr. Anderson served as the sole tax attorney for the Supreme Court of Tennessee, assisting the Court on every state and local tax case that came before it. In this role he enabled the Court to establish a logical and clear framework for Tennessee state and local tax law. He was also the Court’s only attorney who dealt with certified questions of civil law in which federal courts requested answers to unsettled issues of Tennessee law. In addition, he advised the Court on a wide variety of other civil matters that resulted in important shaping or modification of Tennessee law (such as Tennessee’s adoption of comparative fault in tort cases).

Prior to his service for the Tennessee Supreme Court, Mr. Anderson was in private practice in Nashville for more than 11 years. In this practice he handled a broad array of matters that involved federal or state tax issues. Included among these were issues of corporate and partnership taxation, estate planning, exempt organizations and charitable donations.
