WHAT I DOFor more than 30 years, I have represented people who have been seriously injured by the negligence of others. My work focuses on plaintiff personal injury litigation, with a particular concentration in people hurt by dog cases, automobile wrecks, premises liability, slip-and-fall matters, trucking and commercial vehicle accidents, and wrongful death cases.I am often brought into matters by other lawyers when a case needs more than negotiation.Sometimes that means a client has received a low offer, or the case has become more complicated than expected, or the case needs a trial lawyer who is prepared to move it forward.HOW I HELP CLIENTSSerious injury cases are rarely just about the injury itself. Clients are not only dealing with physical pain, scarring, medical treatment, and financial pressure. They are often dealing with betrayal, confusion, and grief.My goal is to help clients feel heard, understood, and protected while also pursuing the strongest possible legal result.HOW I HELP REFERRING LAWYERSI often work with lawyers who have clients facing serious personal injury matters and want to make sure those clients are positioned to get he best possible result.Some lawyers refer matters at the outset. Others call when a case is not settling, when an insurance company is making low offers, or when litigation or trial becomes more than they want to handle alone.When another lawyer refers a client to me, I understand what is at stake.They want their client taken care of.They want to maximize case value.They do not want headaches.They want to know the client will be treated with care, responsiveness, and respect.That is the standard I meet in every referred matter.DOG ATTACK LITIGATIONDog bite litigation has become one of the most significant areas of my practice.I have spent years studying, litigating, writing, and speaking about dog bite and dog attack cases in Georgia.I am the author of:• A Plaintiff Attorney’s Guide to Winning Dog Bite Cases• K-9 Attack: A Guide for Dog Attack Victims and Their FamiliesBACKGROUNDBefore focusing my practice on plaintiff personal injury law, I was a prosecutor and finished my career as a Chief Senior Assistant District Attorney in Fulton County.Since then, I studied and graduated from the renowned Trail Lawyer's College and I am currently on faculty.My background strengthened my courtroom experience, trial preparation, and ability to win under pressure.Today, I bring my wealth of experience and training to serious personal injury matters .
