Welcome to the Circuit Court, Division IV, of the 20th Judicial District of Tennessee (more commonly known as the “Fourth Circuit Court”). The Fourth Circuit Court was established in 1957 by an Act from the Tennessee General Assembly and is the only court in Davidson County specifically designated to hear matters involving divorces, annulments, separate support and maintenance, custody, support and care of minor children, adoptions, appeals from the juvenile court, and all other proceedings involving domestic matters.
Currently, the Fourth Circuit Court is under the leadership of Judge Stephanie J. Williams, who began her service as Judge in the Fourth Circuit Court on September 1, 2024.
It is the mission of Judge Williams and the Fourth Circuit Court Team to serve families with compassion, competence, and respect. We are further dedicated to providing transparent, professional, and accessible court services; investing in the growth and development of our families; and being a model for the advancement and improvement of the legal system.
