My experience with attorney, Tristan Morrison

Mr. Tristan Morrison is a rising Star in Atlanta, GA. I had great experince with him to handle my case for WorkComp. The best person who I met since I moved to GA, Atlanta from MI. It was my very close friend who recommended me Mr. Morrison. He handled my case excellent. Because, he is excellent pers...on and excellent attorney. I recommend Mr. Morrison to everybody who lives in Atlanta and area. He is very compationate, knowledgeable, honest and will do the best for you. If you need to call him he will answer you promtley and always gives you the right advise. Do not go to other companies and hire an expencive companies. Many just crooks. I had very bad experience with four attorneys: on in Douglasville, charged me for my issue 2 thousand during consultation when I decised to go with him and never returned back when I decided not to go with him The same with other three but the last one spent my 10 thousand on divorce, Ms. Palmer, and did nothing for me. My final word, if you need an honest, educated and compassionate attorney who will stand for you it will be Mr. Morrison, a rising STAR in Atlanta. Tatyana

Thanks Tristan!

Tristan is extremely knowledgeable. He helped me through the whole process, for more than two years. He put my preferences first and really listened to what I needed. He got my care approved quickly, and he knew all the doctors, including whether they worked for insurance companies.

Accident cover up

Tristain explained what my rights were under workers compensation and how the company I was working for failed to right by an employee that was hurt on the job and proved the company was at fault

Posted by Booker | November 13, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Workers Compensation

All we wanted was what was "right"

We came to Tristan when my husband's workman's comp agreement was abruptly halted last year. Naively, we couldn't conceive of such a "promise" being broken. But in today's climate, it happens time and time again. Our only hope was to seek justice via an appeal. Throughout the process, Tristan was... steady and measured, and quoted diligence, not hype. We were willing to be patient and trust him, although at times it felt like we were just in line in "the system". Patience is a virtue, 'right' does still have a place in justice, and if you don't ask, the answer will always be NO! I'm glad we met and trusted Tristan Morrison.
