About James

An Injury Practice with Superior Service!

James M. Roth (Jim) grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. He pursued his undergraduate studies at Valdosta State University, where he received his Bachelors Degree with Honors. Mr. Roth worked for a year in Public Service and then enrolled at the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama.

While attending law school, he was a member of the Trial Competition Team, an organization consistently ranked among the top tier of competitive court programs across the country. Jim participated in several Mock Trial competitions while at law school, and won the Haley Trial Competition--the most prestigious competition in the program.

He served as a contributor of the Pro Confessio, a publication of Cumberland Law School.

After earning his law degree, Jim began his professional career as an In-house Trial Counsel for State Farm Insurance Company. While there, he handled cases ranging from personal injury car wrecks to multi-defendant complex liability litigation.

Jim has also practiced defense work for several major insurance carriers including Allstate, Progressive, Farmers, and U.S.A.A. He has represented clients injured as the result of mis-filled prescriptions, tractor-trailer wrecks, and interference with business relationships.

Jim participates at all levels of local and national bar organizations and other law-related community activities including the Atlanta and Birmingham Bar Association, Alabama Trial Lawyers Association, and the Georgia Personal Injury Association.

In addition to his professional representation, Jim has lectured and presented seminars on complex discovery, witness interviews, case preparation, pre-filing investigation, informal discovery, computerized research, as well as various other topics.

Jim focuses on complex trucking and common carrier wrecks, wrongful death, serious motor vehicle wrecks, bad faith insurance litigation, premises liability, general civil litigation, and commercial litigation.

Review James Roth

THIS GUY KNOWS HIS STUFF!!

Posted by

When I first hired Jim of THE ROTH FIRM, I was concerned that he might be a little young for a very serious injury case. Boy, was I wrong. He was more experienced than almost any other lawyer I interviewed. Also, he was professional, hard working, smart, reliable, and most of all got JUSTICE for my case. If you are considering him for your lawyer you need to pull the trigger and pick him. I was VERY impressed! L. M. College Park, GA

Great Services!

Mr. Roth and his staff helped me and my family when we needed them the most. Thanks to everyone at The Roth Firm

Excellent Attorney at all times!

Our Attorney at the Roth Firm in Atlanta was Richard Bentley and he and his Paralegals were excellent from the start of the case until it concluded. They did a fine job of educating me on the entire litigation process. I highly recommend the Roth Firm.

Great experience

Posted by

My experience with the Roth Firm was truly stellar. The Roth Firm worked seamlessly with my Medical Provider and neither ever "dropped the ball" while handling my case. I received courtesy status calls from the firm (without even asking). The customer service was excellent and the entire process was expedient yet thorough. Hopefully I won't get injured again, but if you or someone you know does, make it easy on yourself, call the Roth Firm.

The Roth Firm is definitely a Professional and Compassionate firm that's just out to get your money. They will definitely see to you getting what ever you need, if your vehicle has been wrecked, to getting you back to where you need to be physically first and foremost, the treat you like you aren't just a ticket for their personal gain. I'm glad I aquired them.

I had a great experience working with Torrey Rainey. He was very professional and attentive throughout my case. I had an awful experience with my previous lawyer and he gave me a renewed confidence in my representation. I would recommend him for any and all other prospective clients if they were to ask me.

Jeffrey Grimm, Car accident Attorney on Apr 25, 2017
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Jim and I have worked together on many occasions. Jim and his firm offer exceptional service and have a keen understanding of the law. Equally important, he works efficiently and provides strategic solutions to complex issues and challenges. I wholeheartedly endorse Jim and his practice.

James Robson, Car accident Attorney on Nov 16, 2016
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I have known Jim for many years and wholeheartedly endorse him. Jim is an aggressive advocate who is willing to fight for his clients to pursue the best possible outcome on their cases. My firm has also associated his firm on several cases over the years because we trust him as co-counsel and enjoy working with him.

Brendan Flanagan, Personal injury Attorney on Dec 16, 2015
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Jim sets the standard for superior service in the Atlanta personal injury arena. I recommend Jim because of his proven track record of maximizing results in even the most complex injury cases.

Bruce Hagen, Litigation Attorney on May 16, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I've known Jim Roth for many years. We were formerly opponents on several cases and I was always impressed with his abilities. Now that we're on the same side representing injured people, I see in Jim a kindred spirit who is passionate about his work and zealous in representing his clients.

Patrick Wheale, Car accident Attorney on Mar 6, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Each time I meet a successful trial attorney, I ask them what advice they can give a young lawyer, like myself. Each time I have been told to learn under attorneys like Mr. Roth, whom provide an unmatched level of experience and skill in the courtroom. His reputation precedes him, and clients will be well-served with Mr. Roth.

Robert Glass, Car accident Attorney on Feb 26, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I highly endorse Jim Roth as a fantastic attorney in the Atlanta legal community.

Mathew Titus, Car accident Attorney on Feb 9, 2015
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Jim is a great lawyer and I endorse his work without reservation. Jim can handle any sized personal injury case and deliver results few other lawyers could achieve. Furthermore, he has an excellent reputation in the legal community. He is hardworking, client focused, and a trusted advisor.

Trent Speckhals, Car accident Attorney on Dec 31, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

The highest endorsement I can give Jim is that he is who I send many personal injury and car collision referrals--including friends who need an attorney for a car collision. He is, simply, excellent. Not only does he know the law, but he is compassionate and relentless in his pursuit of justice for his clients. I recommend him without reservation.

Michael Melonakos, Car accident Attorney on Jun 18, 2014
Relationship: Co-worker

Jim is very knowledgeable about every aspect of personal injury and insurance law. Personal Injury cases are not simply about a person being injured and incurring medical bills. There are also myriad legal issues to deal with such as insurance coverage denials, uninsured motorist coverage issues, health insurance subrogation, destruction of evidence, and criminal issues if someone is hit by a drunk driver, etc.. Jim knows how to navigate all these issues in order to maximize the value of a case for his clients. He also has worked hard to build and train an amazing staff and attorneys to help clients with all the issues that confront them when they are hurt due to no fault of their own.

Kenneth Shigley, Car accident Attorney on Jun 14, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Jim Roth runs an efficient organization with an emphasis on client service, doing a good job for a large number of folks in moderate injury cases. And he does it with much better professionalism and results that the big "PI mills" that advertise on TV.

Gary Bruce

Lloyd Bell, Car accident Attorney on May 13, 2013
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

Jim is an outstanding trial lawyer. I first met Jim across the courtroom when he was a defense lawyer. He combines a tenacious dedication to his clients with a high level of professionalism and skill. He has developed a particular expertise in litigating motor vehicle collisions, which serves his clients well.

Michael Soucy, Car accident Attorney on Mar 4, 2013
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

I had the pleasure of working with Jim when we were both attorneys with State Farm doing insurance defense. I have also seen him in action as he is now a Plaintiff's attorney. He sure has taken those defense secrets and uses those to his advantage now. Excellent courtroom demeanor and a true fighter.

Nathaniel Hansford, Wrongful death Attorney on Jan 14, 2013
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Jim is a superb attorney. He is extremely bright and trustworthy. I would recommend Jim to anyone involved in a wrongful death matter. He is the best!

Timothy Klob, Car accident Attorney on Jan 12, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse Attorney Roth. His contributions to this forum are always timely and on point, and he provides a valuable public service in offering answers to consumers on general legal topics related to their personal injury claims. Based on his solid academic record, excellent reputation within the legal community, and proven track record of experience, I would recommend him to anyone seeking quality legal assistance.

Jacob Eby, Personal injury Attorney on Oct 26, 2012
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Jim and his firm are responsive, professional, and "know their stuff". He will quickly, honestly, and accurately tell you your case's chances of success, and lives up to his motto of "superior service".
