Keely N. Wilson was recently elected as a Fellow of the Tennessee Bar Foundation, an association of 850 attorneys across the state. Invitations to membership, which is a position of honor, were extended to 29 attorneys in Tennessee by the Board of Trustees. The introduction of new Fellows took place at the Annual Fellows' Dinner Gala in Nashville.
The Bar Foundation's purpose is two-fold: to recognize attorneys who have distinguished themselves in the community and the profession as well as to administer a grant making program. That project, known by its acronym “IOLTA” (Interest On Lawyers' Trust Accounts), has awarded grants in excess of $27,000,000 to law-related, public interest projects throughout Tennessee.
Mrs. Wilson is a Partner in the firm of Rainey, Kizer, Reviere & Bell, PLC, which has offices in Martin, Jackson, Memphis, Nashville, and Chattanooga. She has been practicing law in Jackson and the Northwest Tennessee area for 24 years and resides with her family in Martin. She is a graduate of the University of Tennessee at Martin and The University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law. Ms. Wilson’s practice focuses primarily on insurance coverage and personal injury defense litigation.
