Thrift McLemore is a distinguished law firm dedicated to helping businesses, individuals, and families move forward with confidence. Recognized in the Chambers USA Regional Spotlight Guide 2026 for corporate/commercial law, our attorneys collaborate seamlessly across practice areas to deliver comprehensive, practical guidance tailored to each client's best interests.

In Business Law, we assist with every stage of the business lifecycle, including selecting and creating appropriate business entities, drafting foundational documents, facilitating mergers and acquisitions, negotiating contracts, resolving partnership disputes, protecting intellectual property, and structuring operations for growth and liability reduction. Whether you're launching a new venture or facing a lawsuit, we protect your interests and help achieve your goals.

Our Real Estate team helps buyers, sellers, landlords, and developers protect their investments and resolve disputes. We regularly handle commercial leases, contract disputes, construction disputes, evictions, landlord-tenant matters, and commercial purchases and sales. We also advise on zoning, planning, land use, draft promissory notes, resolve quiet title actions, and assist with partition cases involving shared property ownership.

For Estate Planning, our attorneys work with people at every age and asset level to create customized plans that bring clarity, confidence, and long-term security. We guide clients through decisions between Wills and Trusts, and help secure essential protections like Financial Powers of Attorney and Advance Directives for Health Care. Our team frequently works with new parents, grandparents, blended families, single parents, business owners, and those needing Special Needs Trusts.

With over a century of combined experience, our Litigation attorneys navigate disputes efficiently and cost-effectively. We pursue practical resolutions through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration whenever possible, but are fully prepared for court if necessary. Our team handles a broad range of matters including partnership and shareholder disputes, contract issues, construction conflicts, quiet title actions, partition actions, commercial litigation, real estate litigation, evictions, post-judgment collections, fiduciary breaches, non-compete agreements, and mechanic’s liens.
