It seems fitting that Brian Holmes had early designs on becoming an architect, particularly in light of the fact that he has built a successful legal career as the managing partner of Cornelius & Collins, LLP in Nashville, Tennessee over the past seven years.
As a native of Tennessee’s capital city, Holmes is especially well-suited to lead the civil litigation firm that for 80 years has served clients that range from Fortune 500 companies, to small businesses, trade organizations, and individuals.
“I’ve spent my entire career here,” said Holmes, who marked his 20th year with the firm this year. “It’s been my home away from home, so to speak. I started as a summer associate after my second year of law school and had the privilege of learning from some of the best attorneys in Nashville.”
In particular, longtime partner Ben Harrison, “who has now been practicing over 40 years,” according to Holmes.
“I learned how to practice from him, and inherited my biggest client from him,” said Holmes of his chief legal mentor.
Holmes, in addition to his administrative responsibilities, primarily defends “health care providers in health care liability and other personal injury cases.” His clients include “physicians, hospitals, nurses, and mid-level providers such as physician assistants and nurse practitioners.”
He also advises “individuals and companies in the health care industry on HIPAA compliance,” and assists providers with licensure and credentialing issues.
