I am Tenaya, a committed attorney working in criminal defense. I graduated with honors from LMU Duncan School of Law and also hold an MBA from LSU Shreveport. I have been recognized for my pro bono work, receiving awards from Legal Aid of East Tennessee in 2022 and the Tennessee Bar Association in 2023. My dedication to providing exceptional legal representation is aligned with my passion for the criminal justice system, and I am dedicated to zealously advocating for my clients. When I'm not working, I enjoy playing Pickleball, exploring local craft breweries, attending concerts, and engaging in book clubs. I am also an active member of several professional associations: - Knoxville Bar Association - Tennessee Bar Association - American Bar Association - National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers - Tennessee Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers Through my work and affiliations, I strive to uphold the highest legal practice and advocacy standards.

"Lance is approachable, easy to talk to, and really made me feel like I mattered. He kept me in the loop, explained things and was always quick to respond. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and wants the best for them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs a great attorney."

"The Baker Law Firm was excellent in every way imaginable. Mr. Baker and his staff were very professional and courteous. They communicated every step of the way and we couldn't have asked for better representation. Highly recommend The Baker Law Firm to anyone needing legal representation!"

"Lance, seemed like a great lawyer on the phone when he called to take on my husbands traffic violation, he made some promises like “I just had lunch with this judge, I could have gotten it taken care of them”, “I can possibly get this dismissed before his court appearance”. I called two days before to make sure we had to appear in court, and it hadn’t gotten dismissed, his receptionist said he would be in court “you have to appear to get is dismissed”……. Now today, My husband showed up, meet with Lance Baker (who didn’t even know the case information) he had to ask my husband questions to be informed. Question he should have known! For example what was the traffic violation for, what company he worked for, etc, while waiting in court. Promises were broke, did not get what we wanted, ended up with points. I feel he could not have given us the time of day, and due to this we suffered."
