A life long Georgian, I have always lived in Metro Atlanta. After I graduated from Morrow High School, I earned my undergraduate degree at the University of South Carolina and my J.D. from the College of Law at Georgia State University where I won national awards for trial advocacy. I began my legal career at the Clayton County Solicitor General’s Office prosecuting misdemeanors and then went on to prosecute major felony cases as an assistant district attorney in the Alcovy Judicial Curcuit. Following my years as a prosecutor, I worked for an Atlanta firm representing some of the nation’s largest insurance companies and their insureds as well as several large corporations. I also began my criminal defense career while working for that Atlanta firm.
Over the course of my career, I have tried cases in almost every major jurisdiction in the state and have spent time in the courtrooms of every metropolitan county. I have handled more than 500 bench trials and not less than 60 jury trials. With more than two decades of litigation experience on both sides of personal injury and criminal cases, I offer clients throughout Atlanta and the State of Georgia knowledgeable and committed personal injury and criminal defense representation. My firm also handles family law and domestic litigation, we represent businesses in general civil litigation, and we help our clients with estate planning matters. In short, if you need legal representation, you have come to the right place. You have found a place where we are deeply concerned about taking care of and doing the right thing for you.
In addition to practicing law, I was a litigation professor at the Georgia State University Law School from 2017-2024, and was an evidence professor for two years. I believe that the practice of law is a calling to make our communities better. I served as a member of the staff of the Fayette County High School Marching Band for twenty-nine years and was the voice of the Tigers on Friday nights in the Fall. I was President of the Henry Bar Association, have served as a deacon and an elder in my church in Griffin, was a mock trial coach and regional mock trial coordinator, and I also was a member of the Georgia Judicial Council for four years. I would count it a privilege to serve you and your family or business.
I am committed to helping you, to walking with you, to helping carry your burden, and to helping you seek justice and get the proper result for your case.
