Civil Litigation

Experienced, successful advocate.

Experienced

I’ve represented thousands of Georgians in diverse cases across the state, ranging from divorce to personal injury to huge and complex class actions. I’ve also defended many law enforcement officials and represented two sheriff’s departments when they were sued. In addition, I have represented two Georgia counties, local banks, and other businesses in court proceedings.

My experience includes dozens of jury and bench trials in courts across the state of Georgia. I have also resolved countless other matters without the necessity of trials in these and other venues. In addition, I’ve briefed and argued numerous appeals before the Georgia Supreme Court and Court of Appeals, and the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.

I know first-hand what it takes to prepare and try large, complex cases against powerful opponents, and to win them. Click here to learn about my case results.

Understanding

Dealing with lawyers and courts causes anxiety. I get it. I will strive to understand you and your legal needs, to communicate clearly my best advice, to answer your questions patiently, and to advocate for you wherever necessary.  I commit to be accessible to you, if not instantly, then quickly. I will stand with you.

Practical

As an investor and business owner myself, I understand that individuals and businesses have more pressing matters than dealing with conflicts. But conflicts arise, and when they do, I stand ready to assist you with practical advice about obtaining the results you need, without needless delay and cost.  While lawyers can’t guarantee results, I can guarantee you my best efforts.
