About Steven
Biography
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.

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.

Steven Jeffrey Jackson's Lawyer Endorsements
"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 worked alongside Steven Jackson for over 12 years, and he is the most impressive personal injury lawyer that I have known. His passion and enthusiasm for every case that he handles is transparent and well-known to his fellow lawyers. I highly endorse Steven Jackson."
"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."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Steve for many years and he is a skilled, experienced attorney in the personal injury field."
"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!"
"Steve is an excellent attorney. He is extremely diligent, and has the rare ability to turn a marginal case into a solid one. He cares deeply about his clients."
"Steve is a great attorney who works hard for his clients and gets amazing results. I trust him so much that I referred my own father to him recently and my father couldn't be happier with how his case was handled and how easy Steve made the entire process for him. I highly recommend him and will continue referring my clients (and family!) to him."
"Steve works very hard for his clients to obtain the best possible results. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personal injury attorney"
"Steve is an honest lawyer who works tirelessly for his clients. He consistently strives to achieve the the best results possible for his clients."
"Truly one of the hardest working and respectable attorneys in the practice area of personal injury, Steven Jackson's track record speaks for itself. Just as impressive is his warm and personable demeanor that injects comfort throughout a process that can be traumatic for clients. There is no other who I would trust more than Mr. Jackson to handle my personal injury claims should I ever need one. In fact, I have referred my own family members and friends to him. I fully endorse Mr. Jackson."
"I have known and worked with Steven Jackson for over 20 years. He is a top rated personal injury attorney in Georgia. I have seen and experienced the professionalism and empathy he gives his clients. He is professional and tenacious with opposing counsel. I highly recommend Steven Jackson, and would hire him myself if the need arose."
"I highly recommend Steve in the area of personal injury. Over the years, my firm has referred numerous clients to Steve to handle their personal injury cases. Steve has always achieved excellent results for my clients. I also highly recommend Steve in the area of wrongful death based upon my prior experience with his office through referrals we have made."
"I endorse Steven. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"I know Steve on both a personal and professional level. He not only is an amazing attorney but an incredible person. He never stops fighting for his clients which results in only the greatest outcomes. He is an honest, sincere and hard working person. If I ever were faced with a personal injury I would not hesitate for one moment to talk with Steve."
"Mr. Jackson is an excellent lawyer who fights hard for his clients. I would recommend Mr. Jackson to anyone looking for an experienced, capable lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Jackson is an outstanding lawyer with many years of helping Georgia's injured."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Steve for 7 years now, and he has always impressed me with his advocacy on behalf of those who have been seriously injured. He is a tireless worker for his clients, and he strives to get them the best results possible, and he does not sell them short whatsover to benefit himself financially. He is an ethical and responsible lawyer who takes pride in his work. This is why I refer him all of my clients who are in the need of his types of services. He is also charismatic and very easy to get along with. When you hire Steve, you are in the right hands."
