Jimmy is undaunted by unacceptable offers and proceeding with cases through trial with results of hundreds of thousands of dollars over the insurance company’s last offer.
As a result of his success, Jimmy has been recognized as a top personal injury lawyer, including rated as AV (preeminent) by Martindale Hubbell, a SuperLawyer for over the past 10 consecutive years, and he is routinely voted as one of Georgia’s TOP 100 lawyers. He is also a member of the Million Dollar Advocacy Forum, a member of the Multimillion Dollar Advocacy Forum, and the Top One Percent Lawyer.
Jimmy’s success results not only from his courtroom results, but his dedication to his firm’s clients. One of the proudest aspects of our firm is that the majority of current clients were referred by past clients. The continued referrals from prior clients is recognition of our strong desire to provide not only a successful representation but individual attention to every client.
Outside of work, Jimmy enjoys time with his wife and two daughters including traveling and outdoor activities.
