After graduating from law school in 1992, I joined my father and my current partner, former Judge S.A. (Bud)Watson in their practice. Both have been fantastic mentors and are passionate about preparing every single client’s case as though we were going to present it to a jury.. Today, our team continues the tradition of excellence in preparation. We leave no stone unturned, often asking one another, "What haven't we yet considered?" By approaching each case in this manner, we have earned a reputation with insurance companies and opposing counsel which bodes well for our clients. While some cases are appropriately settled outside of court on behalf of a client, opposing lawyers and insurance companies know we're always ready to go to trial.. Our firm operates on a team concept. Each lawyer uses their best skill sets to contribute to each case. By operating as a team, we capitalize on the strengths of each lawyer. We also have the ability to review each case from several points of view.. Our firm handles very serious injury cases including brain injury, spinal cord injury, nursing home abuse, tractor-trailer accidents & other motor vehicle accidents. We're often asked if we only handle serious injury cases. We encourage potential clients to contact us so we can determine the magnitude of your case. Often, our clients are unaware of the long term impact of their injuries and may be underestimating the value of their case. There is no charge for this evaluation..

Aaron Ryan grew up in Georgia where he and his twin brother were accomplished athletes on both the gridiron and baseball diamond. Aaron learned from his parents and coaches about the work and commitment it takes to be successful. With roots stretching back to poor and proud farmers of South Carolina, Aaron’s values and integrity were carved into stone by people who cultivated their living from the earth. However, as much as his family history and ethos informed his character, it was a two year missionary commitment in rural Mexico as a young adult that would solidify his path toward law school.. Working in one of the most impoverished villages among our neighbors to the south, Aaron did not speak a word of Spanish when he arrived, and his hosts did not speak a word of English. Yet, it was under these circumstances that he learned to relinquish all that does not matter in this life, and to embrace those things that do: fairness, compassion, fortitude, and a foundational belief in the dignity of every human being.. Though he would become an accomplished financier in his early twenties, Aaron decided to turn his intellect, energy, and drive toward helping others as an attorney. Aaron fights for those who cannot fight for themselves and stands up for those who cannot stand for themselves. When you need a hard working lawyer of integrity and resolve, you will not simply be another client, you’ll become a valued friend.. Aaron now practices in a wide array of matters. Aaron also handles domestic relations matters such as divorces, and represents many Spanish-speaking members of our community. Contact Aaron today so he can get to work for you.. Aaron is a graduate of Augusta State University and Samford University’s Cumberland School of law.
