As an experienced and respected Georgia personal injury attorney, I devote my practice to helping individuals and families throughout the state. I specialize in wrongful death and other serious injuries, as well as trucking and automobile accidents. You are not alone. Along with these types of cases, I also handle nursing home and daycare abuse cases because I firmly believe that the elderly and young, who are sometimes the most vulnerable, deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. The practice of law is more than a job to me. I am committed to preserving the constitutional right to a trial by jury and ensuring equal justice for all people in our community. To this end, I am admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court, Supreme Court of Georgia, Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, and all other state and federal courts in Georgia.
I founded Kevin Patrick Law with four guiding principles:
