About Leon

Biography

I have zealously advocated for the rights of personal injury victims, injured workers, and disability claimants in front of the Court of Appeals, the Georgia Supreme Court, and in federal court. I can handle a tough case, and will go the distance to make sure victims get the best result possible.

Hire an attorney!

I wasn't sure whether I needed an attorney to handle my workers' compensation claim. As it turned out, I'm very happy that I hired one. I never could have navigated through this system without legal help. The attorneys at Morrison & Hughes were very knowledgeable.

Best attorneys in Atlanta

Mr. Hughes and his law partners are absolute experts in injury law of all kinds. Including workers' compensation, personal injury, trucking, and disability claims. I even asked them to assist me with a legal matter involving a time share, and I was very pleased with the outcome. We live in East Cobb,... but it was well worth traveling to the west side of Atlanta for their expert advice. I hightly recommend them!

"Hil is one of the most intelligent people that I have ever met, and he is fiercely loyal to his clients. He provides the kind of candid advice and, when needed, "tough love," that savvy businesses expect. In homage to the late Leonard Nimoy: "Of all the souls I've encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.""

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
