Faculty Profile: Daniel Gilmore

Following graduation from Baylor University and Baylor Law School, I served as a judge advocate in the U. S. Marine Corps. As chief trial counsel at Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, North Carolina, I earned the Navy Commendation Medal, awarded for my meritorious legal service.
I entered private practice in 1990 in Chattanooga with the law firm of Miller & Martin PLLC. In my nearly twenty years as a member of the firm's labor and employment practice group, I worked daily with all levels of management with a wide range of companies, including the firm's largest client, Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE). In 1996, I was selected to serve as captive counsel for CCE's West Group, headquartered in Los Angeles. In this position, I was directly responsible for CCE's labor and employment matters in 14 states. After a decade in this position, I returned to the firm's Nashville office. In 2009, I was recruited back to Chattanooga to join the labor and employment practice group at Chambliss, Bahner & Stophel, P.C.
As an attorney licensed in Tennessee, California and Texas, I have represented clients in all phases of proceedings in state and federal courts and before administrative agencies. He has extensive experience in equal employment opportunity matters, employee and management training, alternative dispute resolution, and traditional labor law, including representation elections, arbitrations, and contract negotiation and administration.
Most recently, I was named an adjunct professor for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's College of Business, teaching Government Regulation of Human Resource Management.
Just as a squire once protected the knight, I formed Squire Strategies in 2013 to protect companies from costly lawsuits, lost productivity, and lower employee morale. I am dedicated to developing and implementing proactive strategies tailored to fit the unique needs of each of my clients.
