Today, we are thrilled to announce a significant milestone in our firm’s journey. Andrew Lockert has joined Matt Hardin Law as our newest Partner.
A Legacy of Legal Integrity
Andrew isn’t just an accomplished litigator; he is the latest chapter in a storied Middle Tennessee legal tradition. Growing up in Cheatham County, Andrew was surrounded by the law—from his grandfather and aunt, who served as judges, to his uncle and cousin, who served as an attorney and a public defender for over three decades.
This background instilled in him a unique brand of “professional diplomacy.” He knows how to navigate the complexities of both local and federal courts with a level of respect and tenacity that is rare in our industry. As founder Matt Hardin puts it, “Andrew is the attorney you want in your corner—thoughtful, relentless, and deeply committed to doing what’s right.”
Expanding How We Serve You
While Andrew brings nearly a decade of experience in personal injury and federal civil rights, he also brings experience in a new practice area, Criminal Defense, where he practices in Cheatham County.
Andrew has built a reputation for holding powerful institutions accountable. Whether it was fighting for Fourth Amendment rights in Campbell v. Cheatham County or protecting families in complex funeral industry litigation, Andrew has proven that he isn’t afraid of a tough fight.
By adding his expertise to our team, Matt Hardin Law is expanding our ability to be a voice for the unheard – whether they are victims of a car accident, a civil rights violation, or someone facing the complexities of the criminal justice system.
A Neighbor You Can Trust
When he’s not in the courtroom or the office, you might find Andrew on the basketball court or planning his next travel adventure. But no matter where he goes, his heart remains rooted here in Middle Tennessee.
