Biography
Darren has received high honors including Super Lawyers Rising Star (only the top 2.5% of all lawyers receive this recognition); Legal Elite by Georgia Trend Magazine; Top 100 Trial Lawyers by The National Trial Lawyers; and Top 40 Under 40 by The National Trial Lawyers. In 2018, Darren was selected and honored by the Daily Report as one of the top 20 attorneys in the state "On the Rise". In 2015, Darren's firm was honored in New York City as one of the Elite Top 50 Trial Law Firms in the nation.
Darren grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa, London, England and Atlanta, Georgia. The eldest of three brothers, he was the first in his family to attend university in the United States. Darren excelled in both college and law school; he did so while working as a tutor for the University's football players.
He graduated magna cum laude from the University of Georgia with a double major, and the University of Georgia School of Law.
Darren’s law practice is devoted exclusively to representing individuals who have suffered injuries because of the negligence of others. He focuses on helping families rebuild their lives after someone they love has experienced a loss or bodily injury. He has litigated throughout the state of Georgia, and across the country. Darren zealously represents each and every one of his clients, making sure that every client receives just and fair compensation for their injuries. Whether someone is injured in a truck accident or by some other personal injury event, Darren applies the law to ensure justice is served.
Today, Darren uses his unique life and legal experience to help counsel his injured clients who face life-changing decisions. As a father and husband, Darren’s practice philosophy is to treat every one of his clients with the dignity, respect and compassion that he wishes for his own family.
As a father and husband, I treat every client with the dignity, respect and compassion that I want.
