I grew up in Gilmer County Georgia, my family moved into North Georgia in the early 1800s and has called this area home ever since. This close connection with the people of North Georgia has allowed me to be intimately familiar with the local area and values, the attitudes of the local juries, courts, politicians, judges, and prosecutors. I choose to fight, every day, for the injured, the accused, and oppressed - those who cannot fight for themselves. I do this because I have felt powerless, I have needed help, and I have depended on others who stood for me in my life. I attended Kennesaw State University where I graduated Cum Laude with my 4 year degree before attending Florida Coastal School of Law and graduating in the top 20% of my class. Throughout my Senior year of High School and College, I worked for a small law firm. During Law School, I was able to clerk for 2 Superior Court Judges and complete an internship program with a Federal Prosecutor’s Office. I was lucky to have spent a significant amount of time in internship and work-study programs that each offered a different insight and gave me a unique perspective to each case that many lawyers simply don’t have. In fact, I even met my wife, LeeAnn, while she was working for her Grandmother, the Clerk of Superior Court, and I was completing a work-study program. I focus my practice on fighting for people who have been injured or accused of a crime. I represent people who have been injured in a car wreck, on a motorcycle, by a tractor-trailer or have a wrongful death claim due to the loss of a family member. I represent people accused of Arson, Assault, Aggravated Assault, Drug Trafficking, Drug Possession, DUI, DUI Drugs, Murder, Sex Crimes, Theft, and White Collar Crimes. My work is fueled by a deep respect for fairness and a relentless drive to win. I became a lawyer because I believe justice shouldn’t depend on wealth or influence. I’m here to level the playing field-and I don’t back down.

I was raised in Forsyth County, where my family has deep roots that stretch across the North Georgia. After completing my education and beginning my career in Metro Atlanta, I returned to the mountains of North Georgia to fight for the people and communities that shaped me. Having lived in North Georgia, Augusta, and Macon - as well as practicing in both Metro Atlanta and North Georgia - I have gained unique insight into the legal landscape of this state-especially when it comes to understanding how judges, juries, and local dynamics influence the courtroom. That familiarity gives my clients an edge. My practice is built on one goal: helping people take control of the legal problems that threaten their future. I’ve dedicated my career to representing individuals and families in high-stakes situations, including: Criminal Defense - Fighting for those accused of crimes and protecting their rights at every stage. Civil Litigation - Representing individuals and business owners in general civil disputes with a result driven focus. From a young age, I understood that the legal system can be intimidating-and too often out of reach for everyday people. I became an attorney because I believe in fighting for those who need it most, and because I’ve seen how powerful skilled legal advocacy can be in the face of injustice. My work is fueled by a deep respect for fairness and a relentless drive to win. I became a lawyer because I believe justice shouldn’t depend on wealth or influence. I’m here to level the playing field-and I don’t back down.
