Don Capparella @ MMFLG Lunch & Learn

Don Capparella, Dodson Parker Behm & Capparella PC

Thank you, Don Capparella, Dodson Parker Behm & Capparella PC, for sharing your insights in the latest installment of our firm’s Lunch & Learn Series.

Don is considered to be the most accomplished appellate attorney in Tennessee. We are proud to call him a friend of the firm!  He shared his thoughts on preserving the record at trial for appeal, making offers of proof, mistakes family lawyers make, and how to avoid making them.

Tiffany Odom-Rodrquez commented:

Don Caparrella’s lunch and learn presentation was insightful, especially as a freshly minted J.D. Thirty minutes of cautionary tales from an appellate attorney is a powerful reminder about how much the rules of evidence and civil procedure matter in a case. I’m sure I’ll be writing Mr. Caparrella one day to thank him for the great advice!
