From Athlete to Advocate: Logan Threadgill’s Path to Practicing Law
The Hamilton County Herald recently published “Soccer Player, Fan Scores With a Career in Law,” an article about Logan Threadgill’s passion for soccer and his legal career. Logan grew up a lover of sports, mainly soccer, and after college, he even considered playing professionally. However, after gaining work experience in Washington D.C. and a professional sports agency, Logan decided to attend law school as he was inspired by the mentors in his life, including his father.
Logan’s practice focuses on construction and business litigation. Beyond his professional life, Logan enjoys spending time with his family, reading, and watching or playing soccer.
Here’s a snapshot from the article:
But Threadgill finds that his specializations are not the law portrayed on television. Focused on construction and business litigation, Threadgill often represents business owners and contractors, handling claims and disputes and rarely goes into court. More often, he says, he presents to an arbitrator. “Really, the way that we communicate with clients is through writing. I write all the time.” Threadgill credits much of his writing ability to his government and economics majors.
A common arbitrator in Threadgill’s work is Tim Gibbons, who he considers one of his mentors. “He’s really the one who got me involved in the construction space. Tim basically pulled me out of training from day one, like, ‘I need you to help on this case.’ It just so happens that his practice was construction.” Threadgill says that Gibbons is “a treasure trove of knowledge” and, very early on, threw him into the deep end of the construction practice.
…The camaraderie at Chambliss – “I can just go down the hallway and pick someone’s brain” – is invaluable to Threadgill. He says he feels more at home in tight communities. Having attended a smaller high school and undergraduate college, he says, “Being in those intimate environments is more conducive to my personality and not getting lost in a crowd.”
