| Description | Winning. Some people just know how to do it. And while John Day cannot guarantee you a win in your case, he does have a well-deserved reputation for success. In fact, John’s ability to deliver a victory to his clients has been widely recognized: For each year from 2007 through 2017, Best Lawyers in America has recognized John in five separate categories Bet-the-Company Litigation, Medical Malpractice Litigation, Commercial Litigation, Products Liability Litigation, and Personal Injury Litigation. In 2009, Best Lawyers named him the first ever ‘Lawyer of the Year for Personal Injury Litigation – Nashville.’ In 2010 and then again in 2014, Best Lawyers awarded him the title of Lawyer of the Year for Medical Malpractice Law – Nashville’ In 2012, Best Lawyers recognized him as ‘Lawyer of the Year for Bet-the-Company Litigation – Nashville’ John has been named in Mid-South Super Lawyers Top 100 every year since 2006. John is a Nashville Business Journal Best of the Bar Award Winner for the category of Litigation and Dispute. In 2011, the Nashville Post named John one of Nashville’s Top 101 Lawyers. John has an Avvo rating of 10.0 out of 10.0. Martindale-Hubbell has awarded John an AV Preeminent rating which is the highest rating possible. John has been certified as a civil trial specialist by the National Board of Legal Specialty Certification. Because of the rigorous process, less than 4% of practicing lawyers are certified. Not only is John certified, he served as the organization’s President from 2003-2004, the Treasurer from 2008-2009 and was recently awarded the group’s Lifetime Achievement Award. John is also board-certified in Medical Malpractice by the American Board of Professional Liability Attorneys. In 2002, John was elected as a Fellow in the American College of Trial Lawyers. This international, invitation-only organization includes many of the best-known, highly-respected trial lawyers in the country. Tennessee has more than 23,000 lawyers and less than 200 are members of the American College of Trial Lawyers. John currently serves as Tennessee’s State Chair. And perhaps most importantly, appreciative clients have acknowledged how John and his staff have secured victories for their families. Professional Activities Not only is John committed to helping his clients win their case, but he also cares deeply about advancing the legal profession and the law itself. John served as President of the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association (now the Tennessee Association for Justice) in 1993-94 and served as Chair of the Council of State Presidents of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America (now the American Association for Justice) from 1994-95. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Nashville Bar Association and as Chair of the Tennessee Bar Association’s Tort and Insurance Practice Section. John has also been selected by the Tennessee Supreme Court to serve on three important commissions. He served on the inaugural Commission on Alternative Dispute Resolution, which drafted the first ADR rule (Rule 31) for the Tennessee Supreme Court. He served for six years on the Tennessee Commission for Continuing Legal Education and Specialization, served as its Chairperson, and was awarded the Commission’s ‘Leadership in Attorney Specialization’ award in 2006. He currently serves on the court’s commission on Rules and Procedure. John also served on the Tennessee Judicial Evaluation Commission as an appointee of former Lt. Gov. John S. Wilder. That service ended in the summer of 2009 when the General Assembly allowed the statute creating the Commission to ‘sunset.’ A new evaluation commission was created by the General Assembly in 2009, and John was appointed to serve on it, this time by the Speaker of the House, Rep. Kent Williams. John was elected as the first Chair of the new Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission in September 2009.

A new edition of the book, Day on Torts: A Handbook for Tennessee Tort Lawyers, was published in 2009. The third edition, Day on Torts: Leading Cases in Tennessee Tort Law, was published in 2010.
