Prior to the launch of my own firm, I was employed at a large defense firm in Atlanta Georgia.  The experience I gained at the defense firm has benefited my ability to understand defenses to claims and what to expect from defense attorneys.  I have had the fortune to grow my experience in the legal field by working with a variety of Personal Injury and Workers’ Compensation matters.

With a primary location in Atlanta and a satellite office in Macon, I am extremely accessibly to any parties to a claim.

Prior to practicing law, I stood where few personal injury attorneys have ever stood. I was a victim. The ngeligence of someone else caused me to lose my father, whom I was very close to, in a fatal car accident.. I was extremely hurt, confused, possed with questions for which I needed answers. Having a gut feeling, I reached out to a childhood friend who was an attorney, Follwing my gut feeling was the best thing I've ever did. My worse fear was confirmed, the insurance company's offer was drastically below what my case was actually worth.. I thought to myself, if an insurance company tried this with me, there are countless others who the insurance company actually get away with undercompensating.  Therefore, I founded The Dennis Law Firm, LLC, as a firm that advocates for victims who have been seriously injured or have lost a loved one due to someone else's negligence.. My core philosophy is simple: Provide each client with A-1 customer service, while getting them the compensation they so richly desere.
