The BEST workers comp attorney!

Julie Poirier is an amazing attorney! From the beginning to the end she was available to answer any questions or concerns. Julie's staff checked in weekly and was respectful, kind, and helpful. Julie is responsive, knowledgeable, proactive, and gets the best results. I highly recommend Julie Poirier... for your workers comp case!

Awesome experience

I was having some issues with my injury and didn’t fully understand my rights. I met with Mrs. Poirier and she explained to me my rights. She made sure that I had everything I needed to get better physically and mentally. Now her staff (Sharon, Sherri, Julie , Andrea) are top notch ladies. They are s...o understanding, caring, efficient and professional. They checked in with me to make sure I was ok. My entire process was easy and they made me feel relaxed and confident regarding the process. Whenever I needed to talk to Mrs. Poirier she would talk or return my call no matter how complex or simple. I highly recommend her office, you won’t go wrong. Thank you Atty J. Poirier and staff for all you did. It does not go unnoticed.

Highly Recommend

I landed with Poirier Law after about a year of trying to navigate the Worker's Comp world on my own - and it was absolutely the best choice I could have made. I knew that I needed a professional who knew the law to help make sure I was being treated fairly, and Julie fearlessly took over and helped ...me resolve one of the most difficult and painful experiences I've ever been through in my life. I honestly cannot say enough great things about Julie and her team. They are sincerely warm and compassionate people and they were there for me every step of the way. Julie took on a very large company without hesitation and I know this was a difficult journey, but she never wavered in her support and confidence that we would prevail, and we did! She is knowledgeable about the laws, fair, honest, and truly a defender of workers' rights. Sherri and Sharon are also amazing and I'm so glad to have gotten to know them all. I HIGHLY recommend Poirier Law and while I certainly hope I never need their services again, they will always be my #1. THANK YOU!

No need to look anywhere else!!!!!

Attorney Poirier help me when I had no answers coming from the other side. From day one she outlined what my rights was and what my benefits would be. She fought against a adjuster that had no interest in my short term medical diagnosis and had no interest in my long-term journey medical wise . Atto...rney Poirier fought hard for me and my case and all medical bills paid and won a court order medical treatment plan for me for as long as this specific medical conditions exist. Trying to take on Workerscomp case by yourself usually results in you being swept under the rug along with unknown medical conditions swept right with you. I am proof that Attorney Julie Poirier at law will make sure that won’t happen, You see I was almost that employee that they were trying to sweep under the mat and quietly never be heard from again that until Attorney Julie Poirier got all my medical evaluations completed and found out I suffered Post Trumatic Concussion!! So she is a winner I highly recommend her to help fight for your case and your rights in ga..... #JuliePoirier #PoirerLaw

An Outstanding Attorney

This is my second time hiring Mrs. Poirier and her staff. I will never hire another attorney. Mrs. Poirier and her staff went beyond what was necessary for my case. She is an outstanding attorney and she is very family oriented. She know her stuff very well! If you need an atttorney, I suggest you ca...ll Julie Poirier and her staff.
