About Jeremiah
Biography
Hartwell, GA workers' compensation attorney. I focus the majority of my practice on the areas of workers' compensation and personal injury. I also do work in the areas of family law, DUI, and business formation. In law school I clerked for the Appellate Division of the State Board of Workers' Compensation and performed legal research for the Georgia Self-Insurers Associaion and the Georgia Group Funds Association. I also was a member of the Mock Trial team and competed in the American Association of Justice National Mock Trial Competition. I was a scholarship football player at Furman University and a 3 year letterman as a quarterback and punter.
