Steven Jackson was born in Hartford, Connecticut, and grew up in Sandy Springs, Georgia. After graduating from Riverwood High School in 1983, he attended Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in History. He attended law school at the Georgia State University College of Law in Atlanta, Georgia and was admitted to the Georgia Bar in 1991. Steven began practicing law in 1991, and honed his trial skills in the courtroom as an assistant Public Defender at the Fulton County Defender of the Indigent from 1992 - 1994. After gaining this invaluable experience, Steve shifted his attention to civil litigation, and he opened his current law office in 1995. Steven Jackson is admitted to practice law in all Magistrate, State and Superior courts in Georgia, as well as the Northern District of Georgia. Steven’s practice also includes appeals to the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of Georgia.

Steven Jackson is passionate about protecting the rights of individuals who are victims of both negligence and the intentional improper conduct of others leading to injury through no fault of their own. Mr. Jackson has spent many years fighting insurance companies who attempt to deny claimants the benefits and compensation that they are rightfully entitled to for their injuries and other losses. It has been Steve’s mission, for many years, to provide outstanding representation to his clients that results in his clients receiving the fullest extent of benefits available to them.

When Steve isn’t working to protect the rights of his clients, he enjoys spending his time with his wife and two daughters, spends time running and cycling, and he is active in his community serving as a volunteer in both aging services and Family and Children’s Services, and he enjoys traveling and skiing with his family.

Attorney with integrity

Mr. Jackson took my auto accident case and walked me through the process every step of the way. I felt like I did not need to worry about anything and that I was in good hands. Mr. Jackson was very professional and I would recommend him to anyone that needed his services. If I ever needed an attorney‘s help again, Mr. Jackson will be the first person I call.

Highly Recommend Steven!

I was in a car accident and suffered a neck injury, and Steven was able to settle the case for a much larger amount than I originally anticipated. He also did a great job updating me on the case and the process. I highly recommend Steven if you need a personal injury attorney!

Beyond satisfied

Steven helped me get the medical care I needed after my crash at no cost to me as well as getting me double the settlement we had discussed. Extremely satisfied and would recommend anyone in a similar situation.

Posted by Bailey Hammond | June 29, 2021

SO great to work with!

Steve is the BEST! He handled everything for me so well. Kept me in the loop on the next steps/what was happening and just made the process so smooth and seamless, and it really felt like he did everything he could to help me after my accident. If anyone is in a bad car wreck, I'd recommend him over and over! I'm so thankful to have had him as my attorney.

Steven Jackson is the best!

I was injured in a car accident July 2019 and my car was totaled out due to a reckless driver. I would contact my insurance company and the driver at faults insurance company every day for two weeks to try and get help with my knee and neck injuries but continued to go in circles with these insurance companies. Steven Jackson was referred to me by a family attorney and after speaking with Steven, he made me feel confident that he was going to make sure I was taken care of. The very next day after hiring Steven, I received a phone call that I had a doctor appointment with an orthopedic specialist to find out what my injuries were from the car accident. I was literally in tears and overwhelmed with joy that Steven was able to get me in with a doctor so soon! Steven checked in with me very often with updates on my case and went above and beyond to make sure my health was getting better. After a knee surgery and many hours of physical therapy, I was feeling fantastic all thanks to Steven Jackson working so hard on my case. In the end, we had a victorious outcome that I was extremely pleased about. Thank you so much Steven Jackson!

A true bulldog! Passionate and determined

My daughter was in an auto accident and suffered a traumatic brain injury. The lawyer I initially hired basically ghosted me and stopped communicating. I was beyond frustrated. Enter Steven Jackson. He was determined to right what was wrong. He moved quickly and secured a settlement within two months, even finding more money from the other driver involved. The previous lawyer had my case for nine months with zero results. Steve was more passionate and determined than anyone I’ve ever worked with. I don’t think there is any length he won’t go for his clients. He far exceeded my expectations and delivered as promised. He is knowledgeable. He answered every time I called. He kept me updated. He made me feel as if I was his only client. In the middle of caring for my daughter, he took the stress of a settlement away. You won’t go wrong if you go with Steve.

5 Star Attorney

I am so appreciative that Attorney Steven Jackson was referred to me by a friend of mine who he previously represented in a settlement case. She readily informed me that he is an excellent lawyer and that I would be happy to have him represent me. I realized years ago, that all attorneys do not have their clients benefits in their best interest. However, Attorney Jackson was very professional and I was regularly informed regarding the status of my case. I was impressed that he promptly followed through on any concerns I had regarding my case. I was most impressed that my settlement exceeded my expectation. I am so relieved that he is a professional and seasoned lawyer who was able to not only consult and represent me but follow through on all my expectations. He is one of Atlanta’s BEST KEPT SECRETS!!!

He made a bad situation so much easier and better

We were in a car accident and did not want to have to deal with the insurance company and all of their games. Steven took care of everything and dealt with the hospitals and doctors offices and insurance company so that we could heal and not have to worry about that stuff. He is extremely knowledgable and we greatly appreciated his expertise on so many subjects related to our case.

Great Lawyer

Steven didn’t hesitate to take my case in spite of a low anticipated return and only 2 weeks to actually accomplish this before the statute of limitations expired. His only concern was justice for me . The compensation was ultimately just for my out of pocket expenses at the time of the bike accident. The goal was minimal stress and avoidance of a lawsuit at this time. He worked diligently to achieve this. I am so impressed. I wish I had known him 5 years ago!

Kind, Helpful and In My Corner!

Being hit by an under insured motorist left me hurt and very concerned about my health and medical bills. Steve was caring, informative and steadfast in his efforts to right the wrong that had been done. His experience and perserverance landed a great outcome for me and my family! #atlanta'sfinest

Posted by Alexandra | March 3, 2020

Excellent and Responsive

Steven was great to work with! He was responsive even though he's in court a lot. He or a member of his staff always got back to me with updates as requested. He secured a settlement for my accident even though the insurance company paid for the total loss of my vehicle. I will definitely work with him again!

I hired Mr Jackson after a car accident. My goal was to reclaim my losses. Mr Jackson exceeded my expectations. He was timely in responding to my questions and concerns. He seemed truly concerned about my well being. Thank you Mr Jackson!

Excellent experience working with Steve Jackson

I reluctantly “lawyered up” after I was hit in my car from behind last year. I had hoped it would be a simple matter that I could resolve with Geico on my own but after months of getting nowhere, I contacted Steve Jackson of the Jackson Law Firm on the recommendation of my neighbor. From the moment I retained Steve, I never had to deal with, or hear, from Geico again. He immediately took charge of the case and expertly handled the situation that was getting out of control with the adjuster assigned to my claim. Steve’s legal staff is extremely professional and efficient. Steve responded to my emails and questions promptly. I was kept up to date on any developments in the case. His legal skills are top-notch. I always had the utmost confidence in Steve’s handling of the case. I never doubted that he was looking out for my best interests and this was reflected in the settlement that Steve negotiated on my behalf. I was very pleased with his work and professionalism. The Jackson Law Firm was a pleasure to work with. Steve is definitely one of the good guys.

Excellent rating for Steven Jackson.

Mr. Jackson was extremely helpful in my case. He explained the meticulous steps and included me with updates throughout the process. As I started my case, I moved out-of-state, but Mr. Jackson did not skip a beat. I felt very involved in my case. Mr. Jackson confirmed a very fair settlement for me and I am extremely grateful I reached out to him.

Recommend Steven Jackson

I strongly recommend Steven Jackson, especially if you have a car accident in the Atlanta area. Not only was he successful in getting complete reimbursement for my out of my pocket expenses in a car accident that was not my fault, he made the process almost effortless and worry-free. I would definitely hire him again if needed.

"Steve and I have known each other for over thirty (30) years. We have worked on mutual cases, and I have personally seen how Steve handles his cases and represents his clients with enthusiasm, compassion, and aggressiveness. His results speak for themselves, but I highly recommend Steve for anyone looking for an attorney who puts his clients above all else and strives to obtain the most compensation possible."

"I have known Steven Jackson for many years and recommend him without reservation. He is a dedicated and skilled lawyer who is highly respected for his abilities. Steven has achieved tremendous results for his clients and works hard for their benefit no matter the size of the case. I recently referred a case to Steven that was strong on liability but damages were low. He worked that case just as hard as if it was a 7 figure case, and the client was delighted with the justice she received. That is the true measure of a lawyer; seeking justice for their client, no matter the fee they receive."

Relationship: Co-worker

"Steve is an personal injury expert. I have referred both family and friends to Steve due to his expertise and competence in matters regarding personal injury. From my time working around Steve, he provided client oriented representation to his clients and treated them all the same, regardless of the size of their potential claim. Steve's zeal for his clients is demonstrated through his work ethic. For example, Steve once had a client that received a check for his claim from Steve, however, during the representation the client mentioned a matter to Steve that was unrelated to the representation. Going above and beyond, Steve looked into the matter and obtained the client an additional unexpected check. Steve is an asset to the legal community!"
