It’s not just lip service. We have systems and processes in place to help people from their first phone call.”

Since 1988 my law practice has been focused primarily in the area of Georgia workers' compensation law.  During my first five years of practice, I worked as an associate with a top insurance defense law firm in mid-town Atlanta.  During my time as an insurance defense lawyer I had the opportunity to try hundreds of cases in cities and towns throughout Georgia and I learned a great deal about this fascinating area of the law.. I also had an opportunity to observe other lawyers try cases and when I decided to set out on my own in the early 1990's I decided to use my experience and training to represent injured workers.  Since 1993 I have represented injured employees exclusively.. I offer my clients personalized and responsive service.  I employ one paralegal but otherwise I am involved in every aspect of my client's case.  I am especially concerned about helping my clients get appropriate medical care.  I know from my days as an insurance defense lawyer that "company doctors" often do not have the qualifications or motivation to provide quality medical care and I offer to my clients the benefit of my knowledge about dozens of medical specialists throughout Georgia to help them get the quality care they deserve.
