Posted by Dustin | October 18, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Workers Compensation

Doug is the best there is.

I hired Doug to make sure my workers comp. case was handled properly. He exceeded my expectations in many ways. When I contacted him I had been going through the case alone for almost 2 years. I thought it was pretty much wrapped up the doctors were pretty much done with what they could do at my age.... I just had to live with the rest until science advanced was my answer. When I hired Doug that answer was not good enough for him. He got me sent to better doctors in Atlanta and which all in all ended in a better result and I received a spinal cord stimulator which helped a lot more then being told to deal with it till science advances. Doug is very thorough and knowledgeable with his craft. If I could go back and do it again the only thing I would change is I would hire him sooner!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
